10mmdave Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 (edited) Matt can post the link but you have to know the USPSA password to git at it . It's kind of a hollow accomplishment for me (I'm the 2nd one by the way ) As Mike will probably add, the stages have some screwy "percentages of whatever". 03 stages get you 100% pretty easy, the 99's not so easy and the jury is still out on the 06's I think. As a side note, I just shot 06-11 this past weekend and got a "B" score on it (according to the Ohio calculator) Course starting with an empty revolver is a bit different Didn't think I had the scores for GM, I'll have to go back and see what they used ??

pskys2 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 CONGRATULATIONS! to Both. Nils also pulled 96% of TGO at the IRC. So, me thinks there IS new blood coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks GTO, but as you'll read here, that and $2.50 will get me a cup of coffee So when are you going to try out that 625 of yours ??? (I have the right guy don't I ??)

GTOSHootr Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Right guy. I don't know. A new mortgage and a serious need for a lot of reloading components might send it to the classifieds before I make to a match with it. The desire is still there, just not the right time.

Dan Sierpina Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Dave, Congratulations are in order, I think! Hasn't anyone told you that if you're going to have a bad stage, make it the classifier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmoney Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 ....the jury is still out on the 06's I think. I'd say the jury's definitely back on the 06s. But what the hell, this is your day Dave! Congratulations, man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10mmdave Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Dave, Congratulations are in order, I think! Hasn't anyone told you that if you're going to have a bad stage, make it the classifier? Thanks Dan, and the 2 classifier only matches that Harvard held didn't hurt either all though they didn't pick the simplest classifiers which was good. And if I remember right, at first, classifiers were the stages I screwed up the most And thanks to Gary and Mike also. Gary ! ! ! Johnny's gone back to the dark side he shot an open gun Sunday ! GTO, save the 625, if you don't shoot USPSA with it it makes a great outdoor winter gun (you get all your brass back ) Oh....and another thing...... I was going thru the stats this morning and I'm seeing that we have 2 matches listed for Harvard that are the same. (June 9th and July 9th) So that may bugger up my standing when it gets fixed. (I emailed Dan H. about it) The USPSA Northeast page is still down so I can't check there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFDavis11 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Congrats, thats a great accomplishment! Looks like their could be more soon. I'm still trying to grasp the fuzzy math behind the percentages. One day I'm sure it'll all make sense why the A shooters have higher percentages than the Master shooters...

pskys2 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Congratulations! 10mmDave is a GM, wow I didn't know we were rubbing shoulders with greatness. Man give us a report, what's it feel like in the clouds. See guys, I predicted way back in the spring we would be seeing more M's and a few new GM's in Revo. Heck in a couple of years we'll be seeing serious numbers at matches, I can feel it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R112mercer Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Congartulations, Dave! That's a hell of an accomplishment! For those of you out there that haven't seen Dave shoot, he really knows what he's doing with a wheelgun. I've had the opportunity to watch Dave fly through a couple stages at the PSA Shootout the past couple of years, all I can say is look out when he shows up at your match!

redmist10 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 HOLY CRAP! That's truly remarkable and a great accomplishment. I predict that board will begin to fill up in the next year.

hopalong Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 (edited) Congratulations Dave, and Nils !!!! Hopefully one of these days I can achieve somewhat mediocrity, until then I'll just be the dummy that shoots. SAM Edit to add: I just checked the "top 20" and I actually went down! Hell even Pat has jumped above me.........and he hasn't shot since last years Nationals!!! Sheesh.......If I keep this up I'll be in "D" class before you know it.

professor Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 (edited) Congrats, thats a great accomplishment!Looks like their could be more soon. I'm still trying to grasp the fuzzy math behind the percentages. One day I'm sure it'll all make sense why the A shooters have higher percentages than the Master shooters... As soon as you qualify for classification in a division, you're rated at one class lower than your highest class in any division. Those three M revolver shooters with percentages below 85% are rated GM in at least one other division. Dave Elderton and Phil Strader are both GMs in Ltd, L10 and Pro. And everybody is automatically ranked at the same classification in Single Stack as their best classification in any of the other divisions, even if you've never shot a classifier in SS. At least we now have enough M revos to fill the Top 20 table. For several years, the revolver Master classification in the table wasn't full, and the last guy had less than a 40% average. Congrats to Dave and Nils! And in a few more months, we ought to have a few more GM shooters to add to the list.

aerosigns Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Add my 2 cents worth to the congratulations. Now that the ice has been broken by some pioneers, the rest of the cream can also rise to the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
