biga9999 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 From setting up at the local matches, the wind at BOTW tends to start blowing around 9:30-10. Right about the time Sheldon mentions the lack of wind in the shooter's meeting. Travel safe and get ready for some fun!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Setup also looks spot on. Great job Sheldon and staff! Alan C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaCoTx Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Great job today. Not much wind on the long range stage for the first two squads. Hats off to the RO's for getting squads through stages quickly. We got done almost two hours early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle O Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Btw, don't shoot a popper with a slug on stage 4...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHolsted Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 So for I have had nothing but fun! And only one stage I would like to be able to have a do over. I am in a great squad with a great group of guys. Even though one liked to send 1oz chunks of lead at popper! My hat is off to all the RO staff! They have been nothing but professionals !

Go track down Merlin and ask him what happens when you shoot a very small steel knockdown target with a slug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack T Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 This was truly a world class match and one which all others could be judged by. Professional in every aspect, from the personnel, to the props. Excellent balance on stage design, as every stage was a challenge and fun for both new shooters and pros alike. Need to make a sacrifice to the weather/wind gods next time. It was brutal on Friday!!! Thanks to everyone concerned, congratulations for a job well done and thank you so much for your hard work!!

bpowe Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Hi guys, As one of the ROs on Stage 9, Bastogne, I'd like to express my appreciation to all the squads. We had to reset darn few of the 28 poppers and plates, you guys hustled your butts and kept us going well ahead of the posted schedule. (and nobody shot our poppers with slugs! or at least they didn't get caught!!) Thanks! If Sheldon asks us to work next year, wie'll be happy to help.
