AustinL911 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I plan on sending out my entry form and payment today. Is this still open? BTW, I've never shot a USPSA match in my life, but should have 15-20 USPSA/SC matches under my belt by then, if all goes to plan. So, how does the squadding work? I tried the self squadding thing online, but can't figure it out. I assume you have to have some sort of access code before it will let you? I'd like to get into a squad with newbs like myself.

After your application is received and you're entered into the system, Chris and/or the squadding system will send you an email with your access code.

Shooting with people with the same skills won't help you get better. I thought about that after I posted that and got to thinking that I'd rather be stuck with some decent folks. I hope there's still a spot open because I just put the form and check in the mail about 10 minutes ago. We'll see. BTW, being that I've never been to one of these events, I'm curious as to how long they typically last? I'm free the whole weekend, so I'll probably head down even on the days I'm not shooting so I can take it all in and help out, if that's OK with the folks running it. I checked Saturday on my entry form but it really doesn't matter to me what day I shoot. I most likely won't know anyone there, so one stranger is as good as the next, I suppose.

Sarge Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) I know exactly how you are feeling. Put it out of your mind. If you are free and feel like you would like to see how things go come down Friday. The staff will shoot that day along with some other competitors who could not be there for a weekend day. You can even sign for Saturday so you won't be standing in line Saturday morning. You won't feel so rushed. You will get to see the stages in action so you can come up with your plans. We are a fairly fun bunch down this way. It is a great match at a great facility. Feel free to look me up. I'll be glad to help you any way I can to feel welcome.

PKT1106 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I most likely won't know anyone there. I have my squad on Saturday, don't know a single one of the other shooters right now, but I bet by the end of the day, I'll know some kids names, original hometowns and a few occupations.

Chris Keen Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Here is the latest tally of shooters. Looking very much like we might break 300, considering we still have 52 days until the match!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcarter Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 Chris and I have been getting a lot of requests to move into squads that are full. My only issue is that we don't make a couple of huge squads that slow everyone down. With that being said we have decided to open the squads on Saturday and Sunday to 11 shooters per squad. You should see movement in a few of the squads shortly to accomidate requests. Don't worry. If you did not request to be moved then you will not be moved. As we said in the beginning we will TRY to help with requests but recently it has been increasingly more difficult. We will still do what we can but we will NOT make a squad of 14 when all the other squads are at 11. It just causes problems. That being said, I just sent Chris our latest update. We are at 278 shooters at this time. We have had 4 total that have dropped out. I will be "out of the office" for the next couple days while I shoot the Battle in the Bluegrass. I will be working stage 6 with Colin Vaughn if you would like to say "Hey". Here is a question to ponder while I am away. How heavy is a box filled with 8 Springfield Armory XD(M)'s (4 in 9mm and 4 in 40) and one S&W 625? Answer: VERY HEAVY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Keen Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 (edited) We are at 278 shooters at this time. We have had 4 total that have dropped out. 275 but who's counting! Thank goodness you don't handle anything important like money! Edited April 4, 2012 by Chris Keen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcarter Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 I have three more to add but I can't get my sorry _ss email to work. Never, I mean NEVER, get Cincinnati Bell Fuse net. IT SUCKS! I spend more time trying to send emails. It may be a little faster than snail mail. I'll try to get that to you tonight Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Keen Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 (edited) OK Dan was right ..... after the last 3 apps he just sent me, we are magically back up to 278! I don't know how he does it Ladies & Gentlemen! Edited April 4, 2012 by Chris Keen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
