AlamoShooter Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I still have nightmares from the 09 match at Tiger Valley. 20-30 mph crosswind on the day my squad shot the long stuff. It actually blew the OBR off the table between shooters! I just got home, and yes the wind was (Category 09) the area lakes are full wind warnings. The wind was so strong it Blew the Smart rite off my A*s What I can say about this years match, is that next years match may fill up in .003 seconds If this match was a ride a Six Flags, the line would start in Oklahoma And yes, it is about the Shooting NO more information out of me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wakal Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Nothing to do with the scopes, no matter how nice...randomly gusting up to 45mph winds across uneven terrain don't care about your glass Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA45acp Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 So... How did the 90 second time out work in the RO match. Too short or didnt matter???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Tha Superior quality of my glass lets me see the wind molecules changing speed and make adjustment in my hold." But seriously I could see my misses hit and make adjustment for extra or less wind. Or I could just be very very lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or I could just be very very lucky I'm still trying to figure out how this is going to happen unmagnified - guess I'll find out if I'll be able to see dust splashes at 480 yards.

GorillaTactical Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 (edited) So Jamie has won the match, we can all stay home now!!!! trapr Jamie did shoot a pretty awesome match.

shoot4fun Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 (edited) The 90 sec rule worked well. I shot on a squad that ranged from uspsa GM to first time guys. There was plenty of time to get it worked out if the skills were there. GREAT MATCH!!!!!! Edited April 11, 2011 by shoot4fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Ho Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 May all of next week's shooters be cursed with lightning, hail and the rath of any number of demons. That way I might do halfway ok. Hell of a cool match. They put some awesome effort in setup for the match. You guys will have a blast! Shoot slow please. Please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now thats not nice "Demons" I hope next week shooters get the same conditions as we had Winning to me is not crashing , so yes trapr "I won" in my own little way I think the list of shooters happy they placed ahead of me is very small, its more like they say "my match was soo Bad ....Jamie placed ahead of me" It was one of my best matches, my stage dope math has me thinking I placed at 85% of what a good shooter could run the stages in. (if the have the same wind) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmorris Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 So... How did the 90 second time out work in the RO match. Too short or didnt matter???? Some shooters didn't always finish but if they didn't put that in place you would have to start the match Wednesday to finish on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gerritm Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 (edited) I shot with the RO's and had a great time. Very cool match. Now I know what to work on.... Shotgun reloads and getting my loading gate welded up on my SX3. My thumb looks like hamburger. I look forward to next year. Thanks Sheldon.

usp45ss Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Luckily, I'm shooting a different division from Jammie, so there's still a chance I might win something... Just wondering, did anybody make it through all 3 of the long range bunkers? Big props if you did, especially in that wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbrowndog Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 West, I guessin' Jammie would be the one to ask since it seems he kicked everyones butt in that stage. Trapr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TXMXRACER Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I don't think anyone made it thru all 3. It s going to be tough to do with the par time but I'm sure someone will get it done. Jamie's 10 with the wind was pretty good. shane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie's 10 with the wind was pretty good. shane I managed to get one toe into the third box at 90 seconds = I am old and slow I did not say anything about kicking Butt, But I was happy / lucky Maybe if they let me in Senior division yea ...thats it Senior division = I do turn 55 in a few months What is the Senior age for three gun?
