burningsquirrels Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 (edited) I spoke with Mark about starting this kind of thread and looks like it'd work best in this area of the forum. Everyone locally knows my enthusiasm for carpooling to major matches, so... Here's the schedule I'm looking for 2012: 2012 Tentative Schedule: March 16 - Alabama State, Phenix AL March 31 - SC sectionals, Gaston SC April 6 - Battle in the Bluegrass, Wilmore KY April 20 -22 Area 6 championship, Frostproof FL May 18 - VA-MD Section, Fredericksburg VA June 14 - Area 5 Championships, Polo Illinois July 13-15 - Pro Am Steel, Frostproof FL Aug 10 - Area 8 Championships, Fredericksburg VA Aug 24-26 - AR15 Rockcastle 3 Gun Pro Am, Park City KY Sept 8 - Tri State IDPA, Arlington TN Sept 19-21 - FNH Championship, Peacemaker WV Sept 28 - Tennessee Section, Memphis TN Oct 5 - NC Section, Creedmoor NC Oct 18-21 - Blue Ridge 3 Gun, Park City KY Nov 3 - Music City Cup IDPA, Dickston TN Alternates: May 18-20 CMMG Midwest 3 Gun, Fayette MO May 18 - Magnolia Classic Jackson MS June 14 - IDPA Carolina Cup, Oxford NC July 27 - Golden Bullet, Richmond CA August 11 - NC State IDPA, Boone NC Oct 6 - KY/TN IDPA, Puryear TN Oct 28 - Indiana SS/Pro/Rev Championships, Atlanta IN Awaiting details: Georgia State - 1st weekend Sept? Monster Match - end of Oct? Memphis Charity Challenge - Nov? Anyone else want to tag along? Chime in here if you want to join in. I like to travel light, stay the least possible number of nights and 1 room, eat cheap, and drive back home immediately after the match, even if it ends Sunday so I can show up for work Monday morning. I have a FB page also set up with this same information if you'd like to reach me there, as "Gerard G." Thanks!

Mokken Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I prefer not to shoot a match like this all in one day, but will go with the majority of whoever is traveling.

So there's already 4 of us going incl. carlo. Maybe Kevin going also. Dang we need a big transport or we'll end up doing caravan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoothdraw Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 G, For IDPA you have to get classifier first. Watch GADPA website for local classifier matches. The catch is most of the indoor classifier are either tuesdays or saturdays at sandy springs gun club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoothdraw Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Dang, i miss the Fort Benning 3 gun. It is usually held on December and one of the most anticipated 3 gun event like AR15 Pro-AM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burningsquirrels Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 give me a heads up when you see an IDPA classifier, i'll send gapda an email shortly. a caravan isn't always a bad thing, it can also open up options for some other people. for that friday i know i have to work until 11 am, then i can be anywhere by noon to start going on down to orlando. same for any of the other matches.

burningsquirrels Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 updated first post. Ray, can we really make FNH, TN, and NC three consecutive weekends? Have you decided about making SC a day trip if there's still slots left? That will bring my total to 15(!) this year, if we add SC and TN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mokken Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 You guys are trying to do way to much, just pick a schedule and stick to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burningsquirrels Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 If someone makes SC a day trip i'm in. As for TN, I would love to but NC has better timing, and is 1 hour from JR Cigar. Not to mention Friday night they also have open lounge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burningsquirrels Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 yikes! that's closer than i thought. time to pay for idpa membership. thanks for the heads up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoothdraw Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Peter Sattham will shoot SC. I'll push carlo to shoot SC also so he could have more trigger time. I'll stick to my schedule plan as much as possible as suggested by Mokken. Will not shoot SC and TN. Will shoot cherokee shotgun instead of SC then rest the TN week which is FN a week before and NC week after. Reminder to all: Feb 1 registration for Pro-Am Steel. Feb 15 registration for Ar15 3 gun Pro-am. VA/MD is ready for squadding. do you know the bay there in VA. Which squad we are going to choose?
