BradC Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 I'll be there Al! Limited 10, C class. BradC A46143 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBChaffin Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 I'm planning on it for sure. Hopefully we will have a decent sized group coming from Mississippi. Bryant A-43915 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Capizzo Posted April 18, 2002 Author Share Posted April 18, 2002 Brad, Limited 10 eh? I'll be shooting L-10 also, but the staff only shoots 6 of the 12 stages, so we're not competing with the rest of the shooters. I'll be looking for you two though (at the top of your classes)!

BradC Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 Yeah, I love them reloads! I'll be coming down with another C class L10'r and a B Class L10 as well. My C class buddy and I are racing to B .. I plan on destroying him =) BradC A46143 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAZZ Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 Myself and Shepard Bruner will be making the trip from Tallahassee. Felt a lot better when we typed in the wrong town in mapquest.com and thought it was only going to be a 4 hour drive. Anyone know why they are having us shoot over three days? See ya there...

j1b Posted April 20, 2002 Share Posted April 20, 2002 I think I'm going to make it there. Lim-10 Unclassified as yet. JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Capizzo Posted April 20, 2002 Author Share Posted April 20, 2002 Since I'll be stuck on a stage when you all are shooting, and quite possibly addled by the sun when ya'll come through, be sure and say hello, slap me in the back of the head, or whatever when you come through. Maybe a lunch or dinner, or at least meeting at the hospitality room could be organized? Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j1b Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 Said I would make it and now things have changed. Work is going to prevent me from making it to Area 4. That pretty much leaves me with the AR State IDPA match. Anyone going to be there? JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FasterThanLight Posted April 30, 2002 Share Posted April 30, 2002 I also hope to make it to this match... Maybe, I can get a ride with Shepard, hint, hint... Lots like a great match... Eric Sites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shepard Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 Fasterthanlight, Hop aboard. I've signed out one of the department's new SUVs so there should be plenty of room for me, you and Razz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FasterThanLight Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 Great, Are you going to NC State Match? Eric Sites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shepard Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 Unfortunately no. I'm in the process of prepaying for my trip to the Nats so the coffers are empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FasterThanLight Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 I have both of my applications in for the Race Gun and Factory Gun Nationals... I am looking forwards to these and have started training hard... The Area 4 and NC State are just warm ups to the Nationals... How did you fill out your squad list for the Nationals?

shred Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 Are Area 4 slots still available? I've been idly considering going for a while now, but am having trouble getting excited about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FasterThanLight Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 Yes, If you can get your match application letter post marked for today you will save $25... I just dropped mine off at the post office after calling the match director to check for slots. He said they had a lot of free slots right now but that can change really fast sometimes... Cheers, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shepard Posted May 2, 2002 Share Posted May 2, 2002 Fasterthanlight, I got my slot months ago. Kim called me from uspsa and said I'd earned one. I have no idea how she came to that conclusion but I didn't ask and didn't argue. I just snatched the opportunity, so I didn't make any squadlist preparations. I was afraid she'd realize she'd made a mistake and take the slot back *grin* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfinney Posted May 3, 2002 Share Posted May 3, 2002 I'm going to Area 4, and have reserved a room at the back up match hotel, $45 a night.... anyone looking to split a room ? My shootiing buddy fell through due to work commitiments. Or need a ride from the Dallas area to Shreveport? shaunf@prodigy.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shepard Posted May 3, 2002 Share Posted May 3, 2002 Fasterthanlight, I just got a subpoena for the 7th. I am pretty confident the prosecutor will continue the case for me and it won't interfere with the match but just letting you know so you can make a back-up plan.

FasterThanLight Posted May 3, 2002 Share Posted May 3, 2002 Shepard, What about Razz? If you can't make it, maybe him and I can ride over together... Have you guys made hotel plans yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 Just FYI, there are still some slots left.. I sent my app in today since I'm suddenly free that weekend. Hopefully there's still a hotel room in Shreveport somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfinney Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 I"m looking forward to Area 4 this weekend, my first "big" match since I got religous about BE's book.... nervous, but high hopes. Hope to see some of you guys there! (Shooter's Hospitality at the match hotel?) Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Capizzo Posted June 10, 2002 Author Share Posted June 10, 2002 Shaun, Sorry I didn't see you at the match. I did talk to Bryant and very briefly to Detlef, also to Gil? Bryant looked pretty strong in A class Limited. I had a great time, hope everyone else did too! Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfinney Posted June 10, 2002 Share Posted June 10, 2002 Yeah Al, it was good match. I won 2nd C open, lost by 1% ( I shot minor at the chrono!, droppped me several match %). I'm still pretty satisfied with "keeping it together" and shooting lots of A's, even so..... I learned alot. I'm going to the Texas Open, and Texas Limited, maybe a couple more, maybe I'll get a chance to meet some of you guys later. I'll be a B class open, A limited by then, hopefully, when my last classifers go through this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfinney Posted June 10, 2002 Share Posted June 10, 2002 Just curious, how did everybody like Stage 9, the double Texas Star stage? 2 Paper targets and 10 peices of moving steel, behind 2 doors.... wow. My time was 14 seconds or so, had to many misses on the Stars, shoulda been 11 or 12 seconds. Fun stage though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
