Rob Boudrie Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 I left the range at 5:08 immediately after Tom Dings who was working stats with me uploaded results to USPSA.ORG. REMINDER - The deadline for correction requests is MIDNIGHT ON WEDNESDAY, NO EXCEPTIONS. Contact information is posted with the results.

L1011 Posted June 12, 2006 Author Share Posted June 12, 2006 I'm glad to hear everyone had a good time. I received many compliments on our facilities from the shooters passing through Chono. And, it was great meeting all of you. As Rich stated we are not scheduled to host the match in 2007. I almost wish we were as the compliments tend to pump me up. However, All the bruises, swollen joints, and pain tell me that two years in a row was enough. The good news is that Rochester Brooks will be hosting the Eastern Lakes Section Match in 2007. Giving all of you the chance to come back next year to what we hope to be another great time in the Blistering Heat, Freezing Cold, or what ever else mother nature throws our way. BTW the average temperature for the match over the last two years was about 73 degrees (the hard way). Thanks for coming Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 A great match and well run. The weather didn't exactly co-operate, what with the high winds and all. There were doors flying open and poppers falling down all over the place on Saturday, but the match staff handled everything really well. Much thanks to all who worked so hard to pull it off! Thanks to the match sponsors as well, especially i-SHOT and MLE enterprises. And did anyone notice the results for Production on stage 9? Steve Moneypenny must have shot one hell of a nice run, beating even the top Open shooters. I just noticed that myself and can't help but wonder how he did it. If it was an error in scoring, it cost me the match win. Well, even if it wasn't an error in scoring it cost me the match win if you look at it that way. I reworked the math without Steve's run since it totally blew the curve (assuming he would have come in around the top spot with a 6.5 hit factor) and, ....well it just doesn't matter I guess. If I would have shot better I wouldn't have to worry about it, would I? But anyway Steve, how did you shoot that stage? Congratulations to the winners, better luck next year to the rest of us.

gmshtr Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Congrats to everyone...especially my little buddy! I must say, it was pretty nice not having to wait to shoot a stage...especially with only a 6-man squad. Things ran extremely smooth! I'm almost glad that I still lived on the east coast for a few more weeks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IPSCDRL Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Thunderstorms rolled through the area Thursday and Friday but held off for the majority of the shooters on the weekend. It was MUCH cooler this year and the wind was blowing everything around. The match however ran very well and was extremely efficient with the Saturday morning squad actually finishing early and the afternoon squad starting right on time. 280 competitors shot ten interesting and challenging stages in half a day putting a combined 70 thousand plus rounds downrange. The staff were all friendly and worked hard to keep the match running smoothly. The stats team of Rob Boudrie and Tom Dings had results posted at the match via computer terminals in almost real time. Thanks to the Harvard MA club for allowing the use of their Palm pilots for the scoring process. Every competitor got a paper record of their run and scores were beamed up to the match computers from the Palms. On a personal note, I had a really lousy match due to some ammo problems that surfaced at the last minute but it did not subtract from the fun that I had. There are several very nice people that I only see once or twice a year and the area match gives me that opportunity. I hope all the competitors had as an enjoyable time as I did.

MTrout40 Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Awesome match! The stages were great and well thought out, the match ran really smooth, and we didn't encounter any bottlenecks. Thank you to the staff and the people that put this match together! Okay, if I HAVE to have one complaint, which I don't really like to do when people work so hard to put on a match, it would be target replacement. Towards the middle of our day some of the targets were shot up pretty well and some of the calls were hard to make. An overlay isn't much good when you can't find a perf on the target. Thanks again for a great match! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tengu Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 A real fun match! It ran very smoothly, despite the wind and cold Saturday AM. Many thanks to all the match staff who worked hard to make it come out so well. The Pulp Fiction theme was a nice touch (although my best stage was Bring Out the Gimp... kind of scary!) Some interesting results, too- the stage 9 Production win was the most dominant stage win I've ever seen at a major match I'm looking forward to coming back to Rochester Brooks next year for the Eastern Lakes Section match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey I would of won Stage 9 if I didn't get a mike on the left static target. Steve took the two statics and the swingers from the right side of the barricade. I don't know if the timer was off but seemed fast on my run and on Steve's. Stages 8 and 9 were the only stages that I shot well. On all of the other stages anything and everythnig that could go did Thanks to all the staff that put on a great match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Moneypenny Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Turtle, The time was right. i checked. i started forward of the jump ropes in a squatted position recahing over my shoulder for one of the ropes with my weak hand and had the other so I could get my hand strait to my gun, and was loooking at a target less than a yard away it seemed. i took the 2 through the right port. then snapped a hard transition to the other point (just saw fists in front of brown) then ran like a mo fo! while reloading. slammed the wall weak hand went strong and took everything around the right side of the barricade. right activator center right static right swinger, left center static doubled the popper and 2 A on the left swinger to an empty gun. John, no offense, but i beat your time by about a second. you took slow shots on those long poppers. that fast of a stage it was much less time to lean and take them if you have confidence strong hand. I probabally waited about .5 on that swinger. but it was a solid run. how did everyone else shoot it? what about that other stage with the stand and shoot vs. run option. sorry for busting the curve todd!

Crusher Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Live and learn, never even occured to shoot it strong hand strong side. Clearly that was the fastes way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpeters Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Steve, I shot that stage the same way you did. (Only I was 3 seconds slower.) I was the only one in my squad to shoot that stage this way. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QQQQ Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 OK Steve, your saying you shot the stage faster than JJ....with a reload...faster than a world class open shooter with a full race gun (and yes JJ's gun was running fine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusher Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I saw JJ shoot that stage, he did not shoot it the same way Steve did and on his (JJ's) approach to the wall he had to pull his foot in from outside the fault lne before engaging targets which did cost a few 1/10ths. After hearing how Steve shot the stage I can see it being faster even with a pruduction gun. FWIW I dont remember I JJ was running his B/U gun by that stage.

j2fast Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 (edited) OK Steve, your saying you shot the stage faster than JJ....with a reload...faster than a world class open shooter with a full race gun (and yes JJ's gun was running fine) On Stage 9 he did, according the results on the USPSA site Steve bested the whole field by posting the fastest time and highest HF for that stage (all div, all classes). That pretty friggin impressive in my book even if someone wanted to say it was just one stage. If I could run that stage anywhere in the same area code as that run I'd be happy. Until then I'll just struggle along in C.... Edited June 22, 2006 by j2fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Moneypenny Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 QQQQ aka Jay, personal attacks on multiple web forums only make you look bad. Calling me a liar I consider a slander, and just plain bad form. Also 5 open shooters were faster than JJ one limited shooter and TWO production shooters. there was more than enough space to make the reload without costing time. and the targets were all open and close. If you can't play nice, don't play. what did I ever do to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrettone Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 QQQQ, I was on Steve's squad, and I witnessed his run first hand. It was VERY fast, and I can vouch for the time being accurrate. He absolutely burned it down, and I can believe he EASILY bested JJ even WITHOUT having potential foot-fault issues. Steve, Simmer down boy!!! The man just questioned it, he didn't say ya didn't do it, he just imagined it hard to believe. To be quite honest, I would have found it hard to believe if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes. Don't be so damn defensive...Yer just lucky I you, you ninja studmuffin. Ya'll play nice now...ya hear??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Baier Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 QQQQ, There are stages that iron sights will beat dot guns and stage 9 was one of them. That being said, the match is officially over and all scores of said match are part of history.

mcb Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Area 7 was my first match that was not a club match. I was very impressed with the stages and really enjoyed the match as a whole. I shot the match Friday. I really like stages 4 and 8. Stage 4's soft cover was the first time I had ever shot soft covered targets and I had never shot a drop turner until stage 10. Wouldn't you know it was my turn to shoot first on that stage. I was wondering how awards are handled. I shot very good given my skill level and manage to shoot high C class shooter in L-10 and was wondering how any post match stuff is handled. I really had a good time and it would be cool to have something showing how well I did at my first big match. I also hope to see something written up in Front site. I have read about many area size matches since I joined USPSA a bit over a year ago. I will be cool to read an article written about a match I got to shoot. Anyway it was a great match and I look forward to shooting a few more big matches this summer. Thanks mcb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Moneypenny Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I hope to get my match report up soon. Area 7 was an awesome match with lots of options. everything was done very well! Jeff I was a little worked up because of the gross disrespect given to me by this person on the beretta forum. my apologies.... all that lovin. makes me a little well.. uncomfortable.. but it's ok as long as itsl only platonic man love. I did get lucky on that stage shooting to 11 rounds and not missing anything.. usually i get a static reload out of stunts like that. congrats mcb!

L1011 Posted June 23, 2006 Author Share Posted June 23, 2006 Hey Steve, I heard your run. I was working the chony for the whole weekend right next to stage 9. There was only one run, I remember hearing, where you'd thought someone was shooting full auto. Anyway, it was great meeting you. Should you get bored next weekend (7-1), the GCL folks have there annual Firecracker match just up the road a ways from Rochester Brooks. I believe it's 8 stages and Jeff Curts aways makes it interesting. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
