HI5-O Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 So, now that it's done...what's the theme for 2012? How 'bout "The Weather Channel" ? Or, "Dante's Inferno" ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle O Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 This was fun. Managed to actually pull out some decent shooting. This was my first time to DTR, but won't be my last! Thanks to all who made it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritinUSA Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 This was my first DoubleTap match. The stages were superb with some nice twists to make you think. The Range Crew were amazing, working all weekend in that heat and humidity is true dedication. They also had one of the most impressive prize tables that I have ever seen!!!

JorDanO Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Another great Double Tap! Thanks to Robert and all the staff for running an awesome match. It was nice to be able to shoot the stages on dry ground. Squad 21 was probably one of the most hard working squads I've ever been on. Most of the time you were lucky if you got to tape one target.

CDPMatt Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 This was my first time to the DTR and I enjoyed the match. It was hot but at least it wasn't 90% humidity like home.... good stages and well run. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordon, Thanks for making the squad list work at each stage! SALUTE! Squad 21 was definitely into "competitive taping", thanks guys! I hope our new found friends from Washington state will come back next year to dry out. Enjoyed talking with you guys.

Strick Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 The Match this year will be a Level II Match and will count as a classifier, When we have enough GM's in each divison How does this work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imhntn Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 This was my 3rd year and I liked the weather much better this year. Another great match. Thanks for all the hard work and thanks to all my squad mates on Squad 2 Friday. You were all a pleasure to shoot with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbob_texas Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Sweet, merciful crap was it hot! ROs tried to shoot the whole match last weekend, but we were greeted with 113 degrees and only made it through 7 stages. Managed to complete the 5 remaining this past Friday and Saturday, when it was a cool 104. My personal performance can be summed up as "vomitous." Oh, well. Sucks to be me. The squads, to a person, were awesome. Not once did we have to ask a second time for help resetting Stage 1. Dave and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and I impressed myself in particular by not dying. You know, I try to explain to my non-shooting friends about the camaraderie of the shooting community, but I don't think they have a point of reference. We're exceptionally fortunate to have this sport in common - it brings out the best in everyone. Props to Porter and Menzik for coordinating a match schedule that ran silky smooth, and stages that live up to the Double Tap reputation. Thanks also to the people behind the scenes, making sure we were fed and had scores out in a timely fashion. The prize table just keeps getting better, doesn't it? Amazing how much stuff was given away. Thanks to all for another great DTC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its great when everyone chips in to help reset the stage... There were times when we had 2-3 people waiting in line to tape a single target Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good shooting Jordan, you lost alot of time with that gun jamming, but you were able to finish pretty high, Good Job!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you shot an 82% and were 2nd in your class so, you will possibly either get an 82% "classifier" or even get bumped to "A". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch Harrington Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I can't say enough about how great the RO's were. Especially when you factor in the heat. The stages were challenging and a lot of fun. I look forward to next year. This was only my 2nd time shooting this match so I'm not sure what you guys are talking about when you mention bad weather. I shot Friday last year and the weather was just fine. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Cline Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Man that heat was terrible! Can we move the match back to the snow and rain? Just kidding! Fun times today. I got to meet a bunch of Enosians which is always cool. Next year im bringing a limited or open gun. Standing reloads in SS all day is tough especially when you miss a lot like me and have to do slide lock standing reloads. Good luck to everybody! I hope you all tie for 2nd place. Jesse, Congratulations regardless on your top 5 finish. And how about Chris A. He lit it up! Was great to met you in person, be enjoying your videos for awhile.

1911jerry Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) Robert Porter and Steve did an outstanding job. Bob - just a suggestion for next year.... Viking theme.....turkey drumsticks for lunch, blonde wigs for the RO's... Weather was 75 degrees warmer than last year, and it was a dry heat.... RO's rocked. Stages were interesting and fast. Certainly did not hear one complaint about to many no shoots. Thanks to Squad #17, Master Class tapers and steel setters. GM's in friendships. Grayson Lee - 12 year old junior kicked our butts shooting limited - Congrats. See you next year...

Rotorwrench Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 After playing in the "Other Game" for the past 7-8 years, I've got to say that as my first big USPSA match, You all put on a great show. Great stages, great staff, great drawing and awesome hardware for the top shooters. I learned a lot and had a killer squad to hang out with. Hats off Robert and crew. I guess that the "Other Game" will be nothing but occasional trigger time from here on out....Just don't expect me to stop shooting Single Stack. Thanks again and thanks for the Glock! Mike H.
