Chuck Anderson Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 We're also considering doing a class after the match. Is there any interest in this? If so send me a PM with what you're looking for, and who you want to instruct it. No guarantees but I'll see what we can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loves2Shoot Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Sounds like a great idea! Let me know if you need a hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightkrawler00 Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 It seems that I may be having some selective vision, since I can't seem to find where to send my money. I've been to the area 1 site and downloaded my match application, and the Tri-County site, but no luck. Can we get the contact info up here to make it easier for at least me. Thanks.

tomdagadget Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 The 2006 Area 1 Championship Stages are done. 12 stages plus Chrono and the round count will be around 270 including chrono rounds. I don't know when we can get them up on the web site but we'll work on that. There will only be a couple of stages that are actually stand and shoots, the rest will have some movement (some a little, others a lot!). Highest round count stage will be 32, 6 stages will be in the 24-30 round range, 3 stages in the 16-20 round area, and a couple with only 9 rounds. Expect to see a couple of stages with the "classic" targets. We are also going to try to have a side match going on, involving some type of computer driven plate/target thingy. More info to follow!

Jake Di Vita Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 I'm gonna see what I can do to come to this match straight from the Ironman. I'd really like to shoot a pistol match on the west coast and this seems like a good opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimel Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Good plan Jake! PDX is only about 5 hours (if you drive the limits) from the IronMan...even closer if you fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Anderson Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 That might be a bit on the fast side. Looks like about 430 miles. That's 80 + the whole way in 5 hours. Better figure on 6-7 hours. We'll look forward to seeing you. I'm hoping that we get some more folks who shoot both matches. The timiing is perfect.

kimel Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Jake is young and probably doesn't need the potty stops the rest of us do. Heck, I did Nampa to Portland several times a year in 6.5 hours in the early 80's (so 55mph limits which I didn't exceed by that much). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Chambers Range Master Sorry for the confusion. We will be running a side match but it will not be with the "computer driven plate/target thingy". Right now we've got a couple plans for a side match that will include at least one firearm and a prize from a major steel target company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Anderson Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 We've gotten a tremendous response from sponsors to this match. The list as of the end of January is now posted on the Area 1 site, www.uspsa1.org. Just click on the link for the Area 1 match and the link for our sponsors is at the top. Check back often though. We're adding sponsors every week. At this point it's safe to say that everyone will have the opportunity to walk the prize table. For those folks that haven't heard how we're running the prizes for this match here ya go. We're paying cash back to our Division winners, $500.00 for Open and Limited for sure. The payback for the rest of the divisions will depend on how many folks we get there for them. Any division that gets 20 or more people will pay back $250.00 to the winner, under 20 will be $100.00. On top of the cash payback Division winners will have the same opportunity as the rest of us to walk the table. The prize table will be toured in random order. When you get picked you can select your prize. On top of this we'll have two side matches going on. The side match will be sponsored by Action Target and at least one firearm sponsor. We're planning to have one side match where you shoot sponsor supplied firearms, using ammunition supplied by Black Hills Ammunition on an Action Target 6-Plate rack. Fastest time wins the gun. We're also going set up an Action Target Dueling tree. On this one you get to shoot your own gun for an opportunity to win an Action Target steel target set up. On top of all the rest of this everyone will get a shooters bag that has, in addition to a great supply of catalogs from some of our vendors, a bottle of Unique-Tek Premium Weapons Cleaner and a custom embroidered Magazine Storage pouch from I Shot. This is going to be a great match. There is a very good chance that we're going to run out of space this year. Make sure to get your apps in soon.

HI5-O Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Looks like it's shaping up to be a great match. The sponsor list is nice What about food availability on the range? Any ticks? See ya there Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Anderson Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 We're working on several food vendors right now. We should have a good selection by match time. There are no ticks, snakes or any other form of goofy critter at the range, well there are deer that don't know enough to get off the berms but they shouldn't be too much of a problem.

al503 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Mike McCarter mentioned something at the last match about having several food vendors/caterers on site so you won't have to drive anywhere to get grub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caspian38 Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 (edited) I heard Mike McCarter say something to the effect that the prize table had $60,000 on it !!!! looks like every one will take home something thanks to all the great sponsors and match staff doing a lot of work! thank you! c38 they are also hosting the multi-gun nationals!

Sam Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 I wasn't really planning to go to A-1 this year. Time and money in short supply. But, big prize table usually means big attendance. I'm interested again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Anderson Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 I'd say it's probably right about $50K confirmed right now with another 15K pretty darn likely. We had a really great response at the SHOT Show and as soon as I return to cold Oregon from sunny Florida I'll start pestering sponsors again. It's pretty safe to say that everyone will get something off the prize table. This is going to be a great match. I've spoken to several GM's that are planning to attend and have been doing my best to drum up interest from anyone I can find. Even those guys shooting the goofy looking guns with the round thing in the middle. For the folks that haven't been to a match put on by Everett, Tom and Mike they really are great matches. Talking to some of the folks that have shot a LOT of nationals, a lot say that the 02 and 03 matches that they put on were some of if not the best. So for those of you that are hot dogs and think you got a chance at winning, there's cash and prizes to be had. Even the Division winners will walk the table with the rest of us. And if you've never shot a major match before, you've got just as much of a chance at walking away with nice Trijicon scope, Springfield Armory pistol, or any of the other prizes. Regardless of where you finish you will get at least one or several new toys to go home with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splashdown Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Sounds like it will be a great match. I'm all signed up and the hotel is booked. See you all there! I'll probably shoot my Glock 35 in Limited. splashdown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveZ Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 (edited) Looks like the STAGES have been posted. Upside down (2.1.8.4) targets on stages 10 and 12? And they're bringing back the "dummy" from Marysville 2001 on stage 10! Edited March 17, 2006 by SteveZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
