assaulter Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Does that mean we can shoot minor with no penalty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springy Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Deb Pankratz, our MD, has confirmed, TIME PLUS scoring for this match. Some stages have to be adjusted, as Time Plus will not support fixed or par time. Bruce BVD I'm thinking the timer beeps at the par time, the shooter stops, the par time plus penalties is the TIME PLUS score for the stage. I don't think the score program knows, or cares, if it's par time, it just wants the stop time plus the penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheytac Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) How would this match be for an amateur? This was my first ever 3 gun match back in 2009. Wow what a difference 3 years makes!!! About the only good things about it was not getting DQ'd. Jesse, you went from Zero to Hero in 3 years? Thanks everyone for the info. I'll have to give this some thought.

Jesse, you went from Zero to Hero in 3 years? Thanks everyone for the info. I'll have to give this some thought. Actually it only been 2 years 10 months at this point. I didn't even own an AR or pistol 4 years ago. This sport is wide open for some young whipper snapper to come in and crush Daniel Horner. He just needs the right financial support and a good range at his house. Edited June 19, 2012 by Jesse Tischauser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want to do this match especially now that I won't get hammered scoring with my 9mm like last year. With Fallen Brethren so close, I'm not sure if I can pull it off as my 3 and 5 year olds start driving my wife crazy when I'm not around.

springy Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Par Times in 3 gun = NO FUN. Just set a max time and be done with it. Max time is the same thing as par time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prreed10 Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) Par Times in 3 gun = NO FUN. Just set a max time and be done with it. Max time is the same thing as par time. Not the same. Par time is the same time for everyone. Max time is the maximum time allowed to compete the course. Par time is usually set where the clock starts and the shooter accumulates the most points they can before the par time is reached. Max time is the point at which the clock stops - penalties are then assessed for targets not engaged/misses.

Bruce Bethell Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 The ad for this match is in the current (July/August) issue of Front Sight. Slight typo error in the ad. Competitors will shoot the match on September 29 and 30. The ad says staff will shoot on Oct. 28. In the process of revising last year's ad to this year, the month for staff shoot didn't get changed. Staff will actually start shooting on Thursday, September 27, and continue on Friday, September 28. Correction will be published in the next issue. Just to clarify the "official" start of the match on September 27 (assuming set up is completed), a revised match entry form is attached.

Though I really do NEED to get back into my old USPSA routine before my pistol skills totally dry up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Bethell Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Do you have tone an USPSA member to shoot this? Are there any spots left? As a Level II match, USPSA membership is required. There are still slots available. Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springy Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I really do NEED to get back into my old USPSA routine before my pistol skills totally dry up. +1 +1 I don't think it's the match on Saturday, it's the serious pistol practice on Wednesday getting ready for the match on Saturday that makes the difference.

Chris Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 What is the closest major airport? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Tischauser Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) You can fly southwest into fort smith. Let us know if you need a ride from the airport. Edited August 22, 2012 by Jesse Tischauser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Bethell Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 What is the closest major airport? You can fly into Fort Smith (FSM) via Dallas on American then American Eagle to Fort Smith. Only other option to Fort Smith is Memphis then Fort Smith on Northwest. Dallas is probably a better connection. The match hotel is the Candlewood Inn and Suites, real close to the airport. However, they don't have ground transportation. We can arrange for someone to pick you up at the airport. Nowthwest Arkansas (XNA) has a little better service. It is about an hour and a half or two hours from the Range. Tulsa (TUL) has good service, and it is about 2 to 2 1/2 hours from Fort Smith. If you (or anyone else) wants to ship ammo rather than carry it on a plane, let me know. I'll get you my office address, and you are welcome to ship ammo to me. FYI, slots are still available. We are a little over 60% capacity as of yesterday. Have not received the mail today. One more note about any travel plans. We will make the 100 yard and 300 yard ranges available on Friday to sight in, so long as you work around the Staff shooting on Friday. There will also be a handgun function fire bay open on Friday and throughout the match. Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
