jimmcc Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Has anyone ever shot at the Clinton County Farmers and Sportsmen Association range near Williamington Ohio? They have several matches scheduled for this year and apparently just switched to IMG rules. I emailed questions to the match director and he responded promptly. Just curios because I'm planning on shooting the April 24 th match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OPENB Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Just looked up their website. This would be a great place to try for me, only about 1/2 hr. away. Too bad the 24th is Easter. Skipping to go shoot would go over like a fart in church. I'm assuming we don't have to be members to shoot the matches, correct? Being an IDPA club, would my open gear be frowned upon?

jimmcc Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 Your open gear is good to go from what I understand. They are using IMG rules. I better be right because I'm shooting open too!!! Check out their calendar, they have several matches this year. I hope it's a fun match because of the amount shoots and it's only 2 1/2 hours away from my place. Shooting 3gun in Ohio is challenging because of the lack in places to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmcc Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 Sunday May 22nd is the next match. If the April shoot is fun I may try to make this one also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmcc Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 Life has gotten in the way. I'm hoping to make it this month and I'm pretty sure my schedule is free. I'll post my opinion after the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmdCtzn Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 It's only about an hour drive for me, so it is a no-brainer, I'm there. They have a nice facility with a lot of potential. It could grow into a very nice match. They use a lot of IDPA scoring, which I don't really like, I prefer IMG scoring. The MD is a super-nice guy, and the match is very casual. The July match was brutally hot, and the whole squad had to wait in the burning sun through one entire stage. Had I known, I would've brought my EZ-up for us to sit under. Enough talk, video tells the story better: A few highlights: Helmet cam of one stage: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mscott Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I wouldn't mind trying that match sometime, but it's a 3 hour trip for me and it seems there is always something else to shoot that's closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye67 Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 I'm glad you guys enjoyed the match and I hope you'll make it back. We'll have to try and get that pommy bloke in Xenia to come down sometime. I'm digging the helmet cam video. -Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start time? Stages aren't posted anywhere, sometimes they'll get emailed but nothing so far. Start time is 9:30, set-up usually begins about an hour before.

ArmdCtzn Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I am planning on driving up from Lexington. It looks like the weather will be great. I think I talked to you on the rifle stage. Hope you thought the trip was worth it. I think that was their best match this year. I'm the guy going to BGSL this Sunday. I need to re-zero my rifle, apparantly all my shots were going a little right on that first stage. My shotgun decided to mis-feed and then flip the shell backwards on another stage and I spent a good ten seconds clearing that, that was a first. Otherwise, I had a pretty good match! Big turn-out this time. I think trying to put the targets on a single stick wasn't such a good idea, maybe if the wind hadn't been so strong.

I plan on attending again. I would like to thank all the folks that put on such a fun match. A special thanks to Chris, Larry, and Jeff. Yesterday I had a few mistakes on my part. I will chaulk those up to inexperience. I am learning all the time. I ageee with the wind and the targets. The zombies were a lot of fun. I especially liked the two stages at the 50yard bay. Well, come to think about it, I liked all the stages. With a mix of upclose hoser stages and 200 yard rifle shooting, what's not to like. Good luck at BGSL this Sunday. I believe it will be worth your drive down. There are some very good shooters that show up from time to time. And there is usually a good mix of stages. Take care.

Buckeye67 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I'm glad you guys enjoyed the match! Chris and I had a bunch of fun putting together the stages. I couldn't believe how many folks turned out for the match. I just wish it hadn't taken so long to get through it all. I think we learned a bunch for the next one though. I'd like to send a shout-out to my brother and thank him for providing the zombie targets, and another to my 16 year old niece who came out and shot the match (well, most of it). It was her first time shooting a match, and only her second time shooting a shotgun and center fire rifle and pistol. -Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
