Turtle Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 This is going to be another great match. It's going to be a tough one for me...driving 12plus hours to visit family on Thursday, then driving another 2-3 hours to the range on Friday. Shooting all day Saturday and then driving back to visit with family after the match. Man I'm tired already... I can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Keen Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Go to "Florida Open 2011" in this thread and pull up post 130 and you will see the new bays at Universal Shooting Academy.......all 30 of them Here's the link Charles was referring to. It shows the layout of the new bays, including the 1 HUGE bay at the very bottom of the pic (South most bay). Also there is a video that Sandro posted last night with some video footage of the bays, and an interview with Manny Bragg.

wgnoyes Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Do we have ANY IDEA how full this match is yet? At this time last year for the 2010 match, we had 206 people signed up. Where are we this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any reason anyone is not coming? Besides you, who is not coming? When you add in the sponsored shooters and the nearly 60 on staff, I think we are pretty close to last year. If you do plan to attend, the application is posted. I still have openings in all time schedule options, although Saturday only is filling fast. And the match has 12 stages - the same as last year. When I assumed the Match Director's duties in October, the contract with Universal Shooting Academy had already been signed and specified 12 stages. During my first site visit in November, we were not sure the additional bays would be completed in time for the Area 6 match.

fayetteflash Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 The "app's in the mail". Finally convinced family to join me and do Disney while I shoot on Saturday. Then I can join in for a few days.

Charles Bond Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Just received my latest issue of Front Sight and and there is no ad for the match so those who are not on this forum have no notice of the match. In order to fill this match we need to get the word out to every section and every club the specifics of the match and the need for applications and where to mail them. Help us out and talk it up at your club and your friends. Instead of coming home and telling your shooting pals what they missed, tell them now that they are going to be sorry if they do not get registered.

Haven't seen the new front sight yet but the match is listed on the USPSA site http://www.uspsa.org/uspsa-match-listing.php so saying someone has to be on this forum to know about the match is not accurate.

Really seems like there is something else going on here with the post we keep seeing, why not just PM it or email it. Attitude Please be polite. Or if not polite, at least respectful. No bickering.

Charles Bond Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 I had a great chat with Linda this evening and this match is getting good response without a Front Sight ad. As those of you who are from Area 6 know, Linda has my total support as AD and she certainly knows that she is one of my favorite people with whom to completely discharge a cell phone battery.

Aztec Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hotel reservations made and match registration in the mail. This will be my first Area 6 match and I'm really looking forward to it. I just shot the Open in Frostproof and I'm looking forward to going back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
