grandbagger Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 Hopefully not! Handgun nationals, world shoot and multi gun nationals, before this event will MAYBE slowdown the applications? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JorDanO Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I don't think it was sold out last year. I was able to get in about 3 weeks before the match. This year I signed up early though, it's too good of a match to miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatepickles Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I just crunched the numbers and I can't swing a last minute sign-up. I'm sure it'd be worth the cash, but it's just a bit too much for me right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckS Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 (edited) Stages are up! ETA: 271 rounds min. And it looks like there may be some of those sluggish swingers. ETA: I PDF'ed the stages.

HI5-O Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Just wondering why there isn't more chatter about Area 2 this year? Use to be a lot more updates and who's going and who's challenging who... Got transferred last month at work, so now planning on attending A2 next year. I'll be waiting for the shot by shot commentary There will be one Maui guy shooting this one, hope he does well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckS Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Chatter Chatter Chatter Chatter... Got the squad schedule here: SquadSchedule.pdf Notice that the rotation is a bit different* this year. And, as usual, the squad lists will be available at registration only. Later, Chuck * I was told part of the reason of the change was the conflict with the FNH 3 Gun match.

XRe Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Notice that the rotation is a bit different* this year. ... ... * I was told part of the reason of the change was the conflict with the FNH 3 Gun match. I don't see how the schedule differs enough to prevent some kind of conflict with a match that's across the country from Rio Salado? The big difference seems to be no flip-flopping of the morning/afternoon rotations around lunch, right? If you start in the morning, you shoot through 5, lunch break, and a 6th stage. If you start in the afternoon, you don't show up until after lunch, and shoot through 5? That, and the squads that start in the morning the first day get two relatively late days...

ChuckS Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 (edited) I don't see how the schedule differs enough to prevent some kind of conflict with a match that's across the country from Rio Salado? You will have to ask Polle about that. Just repeating what I heard. In retrospect, she may have been referring to the "super squad".

ChuckS Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 (edited) Nice, Chuck. Pics of the stages ahead of time are a first No jungle run this year, eh? Oh well... I am not sure who did it, but I will hunt them down and thank them! The stages look to be pretty much shoot 'em as you see 'em sort of stages. It looks like you finish prone on 5. (Old dude like finish...). And yes, it looks like calling shots on poppers will not be optional. Can't drive them down See ya all there... ETA: Jungle run in the Desert? One nice thing is when the redid the topography of the bay used for stage 5, they destroyed that Cholla cactus that had impaled many a shooter Edited November 8, 2011 by ChuckS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
