Seth Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 To appease the sensitive Revo shooters, we're gonna rename all the stages after flowers, lotions and frilly stuff. :wub::wub::wub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBoyle Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Alan and Seth thanks again for a great match. I had a great time and met some great peoiple. Squad 302 was the best.

Awesome match as well. Great stages, some a bit tricky and some with tight shots, I like that. Excellent range volunteers; you guys keep this sport alive. Good food and I really liked NOT having the stickers and score cards. Good job Alan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
