Bill Lhotta Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 AMAZING! That basically sums up my first RM3G experience. The Whittington Center venue, comradery, RO staff, sponsors, and of course all the hard work from Denise and JJ to make this happen are truly AMAZING! This is a very special event and you can bet I will be back next year. Thanks again to everyone involved who worked so hard to make this a reality. Cheers! ** Bill ** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kellyn Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Great match! And I agree Whittington is THE place for a 3 gun match. More physical than in the past. Of course, it is RM3G so there was a lot of real rifle shooting - which I like. And as always an uber-generous prize table. But we need to talk about unsighted shooting around fake trees!

jimm223 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Thanks go out to Denise and JJ, all the ROs, anyone else who had even the smallest part in helping with this match. It is one heck of a good time, will be rested up in about a week, maybe. Hope to see all again next year. Thanks Jim M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtielke Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Very challenging but fun match as always. Thanks to JJ and Denise as well as everyone else that made it possible. Photos of Squad 5 and 14 can be seen at the following link - http://rohirrim.smugmug.com/Shooting/2013-Rocky-Mountain-3-Gun My wife took over 1600 photos of these squads! There are photos of the RO's on those stages as well. Great pics, thanks again for taking them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtr Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 The Saturday before the match my buddy Mike Payne called me, "Dude I crashed on my mountain bike today and messed up my shoulder, I can't even hold my rifle up". Mike had been training hard since last year and was really working hard to win He Man Irons. It seemed he may not even be able to shoot. Fast forward to the last day of the match, my squad was finishing up on Stage 8 which Mike was the CRO on, he chose to shoot the stage last after my squad. The race between JJ and Mike was close and Mike new he had to run about a 114 to beat JJ for the match. Mike shot the stage and after he finished I heard lots of hooting and hollering from Mike, he had shot a 110 and won the match. Congratulations man you worked really hard for it. Thanks to JJ, Denise, JP and all the staff for putting on a fabulous match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sschultz Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Looking at my 2014 shooting calendar how many new shooters are able to get into this match in a typical year. Schultz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benelli Chick Posted August 14, 2013 Author Share Posted August 14, 2013 Looking at my 2014 shooting calendar how many new shooters are able to get into this match in a typical year. Schultz Last year, we probably had a total of 60 new shooters. Some of those were sponsored. I had at least 40 new shooters that sent in apps and were let in with the new shooters. For this year, we have more slots. They're more expensive. I think it will be a little more open...but, who knows??? I'm always amazed every year when we fill up so fast. We have a LOT of loyal shooters, which is nice! Denise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benelli Chick Posted August 14, 2013 Author Share Posted August 14, 2013 So, we have pictures all over the place, but we're trying to condense the 3000 some pictures on one place...but it's a slow process. go to: http://rm3gun.smugmug.com/ and see how you like it! Is it easy to get on? Can you print pictures from it? Does it look okay??? Trying to make the pictures taken by the amazing Dan Miller more easily accessible to all! Let me know!

Denise Nicely done Denise! Nice look to your SmugMug site. As far as I can tell everything is working ok on the Awards Gallery, though I don't see the download option on the other 3 galleries. You might need to check the Gallery settings on those galleries and make them the same as the Awards Gallery. Steve Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just click the download link, and you will get the full size photo downloaded to your computer to do with as you please. SmugMug also does a very nice job with printing if you choose that path.
