I'm Not A Sandbagger

If you win your class at Nat's, don't you automatically get bumped up a class? My % is almost an A class % but with the way I shoot classifiers it could never happen :angry: Didn't Mike say that Sammy got his new card after Nat's and he won C class? Or have they just not caught up with me yet.

They just asked for the Section Coordinator or my home range President to also agree. After that they moved me to B. I stink at classifiers and had switched to Production and then back so I missed alot of classifiers that would have moved me up probably. Last month I shot a special classifer in Limited and got me B card to go along with the other B's.

Sam got a B card in the mail last month with a letter saying it was because he won C class at Nats with a B class percentage score.(Coincidentally, his last classifier moved him above 60% anyway, so he was moving up either way.) Tom, I think you would have needed to hit 75% to move up that way.

You're an A class guy in all our hearts, though!! :)

Tom,

Nationals is like Area matches.........You have to win your class, with the next higer class percentage(If enough GMs are there) ;)

You can get your Section Coordinator and Club Pres to agree and send USPSA a letter and they usually will gladly take you up on your offer.

Good luck, My take..........just keep shooting, who cares what class you are in.

Heck, I tried right the opposite..BUMP DOWN....they said something about a "physical disability" requirement, I tried the MENTAL DISABILITY route and was told that almost ALL USPSA shooters fall under this one..... :P:lol::P

Heck, I just want to know why I have 3 classifiers under 60% that count and two above 70 and two above 80 that dont count... I called USPSA and asked and was told to quit whining and was offered a classifier cry towel. I have not shot a revo classifier since that phone call. And yes, I am still bitter.

Back on topic, you do have to win your class at a Tournament level or higher match and shoot the next class up to get bumped up. I made A in Limited that way. Seems a lifetime ago.
