KGentry Posted June 22, 2007 Author Share Posted June 22, 2007 I just got back from the range and it looks good at this particular moment. All stages are ready to go!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken hebert Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Come one weather gods, hold out just a little bit! Scott and I are leaving here in about another hour. Be nice to not have to drive all that way in the rain... I'll be tempting fate at this match. Using my new blaster that I've had for all of one week, but I've got faith... 210 huh? Sounds good to me. Get me ready for 1st Sat in July. Four stages, 180 rounds. COME ON!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
born-in-45 Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Hello, This is Horacio "Neo" Canales from down in McAllen.There are two of us who were wondering if you received our registrations. Me and another fellow named Roland Villarreal, he's from Edinburg. Neo, I was just scanning the registrations and both yours and Roland's registrations were received and you're in the "big show". It's Saturday noon time and the rain god is still having mercy on us. Tomorrow should be a great fun time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Hello: It rained today in Corpus but it looks great outside right now. I hope it doesn't rain tomorrow but if it does it will still be fun. See you tomorrow. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M118LR Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Mike4045, Vince said he was going to shoot the match. I am currently in Stephenville TX shooting a match. Good luck to everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CenTX Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 (edited) Shot the Texas Summer Shootout today. Bright sunny day, although it looked like rain may have been on the way when we finished the last stage. Fun challenging stages, a great day of shooting. We were on a great squad, shooters from Corpus, Laredo, San Antonio, Austin and ??? What a great bunch of guys.

Aircooled6racer Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Hello: For my first real out of town USPSA event it was great. The stages were like nothing I have ever shot before. The bridge was great although I did not shoot it very well. I want to thank all the guys in squad 2 for putting up with me. I will be back.

GeneralChang Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Squad was a blast, stages were challenging and I'll bet tough to set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M118LR Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Have any results been posted yet? Inquiring minds would like to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
born-in-45 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Typically results get posted Tuesday afternoon. With this being a "shoot for the money" match it may be a little longer as I expect there will be additional care/checking to ensure placings are correct. Checks will be mailed out to the winners. Fun match, great people, good weather. Thanks to all for coming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trodrig Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 This was a great match! The weather was great too! Glad we got a break from the rain but didn't get too scorched by the heat either! Really enjoyed the bridge!! trodrig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken hebert Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 (edited) Bridge was cool, but I gotta say I liked the jail cell stage and the shoot under the wall stages better. Too bad about jail cell one, though. Good match, I'll be back next time. Only next time I'm bringing a dune buggy of some sort to get from the road to the range via the goat trail. Glad we took Scott's truck and not my car. I think we'd have been trying to thumb a ride into the range... BTW!!! We gotta change Benny's tag line from mr. modest to something like mr. magnet. Get him to fill you in on the details... Edited June 25, 2007 by ken hebert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trodrig Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Yeah, the jail was awesome! Drag that it got thrown out....what exactly happened there? When our squad got there the briefing was already modified and we shot it as though you had to have one of the props on you for every shot. Did some shoot it where you could drop the props off before shooting? +1 on the off roadin' to get to the match! Glad I drove the truck instead of my wife's car!! trodrig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralChang Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 (edited) I was on the first squad and we shot it with the prop "on us" for every shot fired. Edited June 25, 2007 by GeneralChang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken hebert Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Our squad was the second to shoot that stage and we shot it with a prop on your person for every shot fired. Dropped the prybar in my front left pocket and put the money bag between my body and my last mags. Worked great. Wish we'd have got to choose which stage to drop ourselves, as my shok buff went to pieces in the one with the two ports/two swingers. Was watching my slide cycle, slowly! Think it turned into a 20 second run, should've been about 15. Oh well, still was a great match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benny hill Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Ken was talking about when I shot the bridge stage. Turned & shot 2 targets & than the large popper. As I dinged the popper I felt a hard blow to my left elbow & had my support hand knocked from my gun. After curseing a bit I relized the bullet had come back & knocked the shit out of my arm. Finished the stage, looked at my torn open elbow puffed up & blood running down my arm. Though it was still in me but turned out it was not. Went home & let hank, my jack russel, lick it clean & it's great today. Just glad it wasn't in the teeth, that would have sucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralChang Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Honestly, the best part of the match was the aftermatch meal on the way home. We stopped at small obscure place and well, a picture is worth a thousand words... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She would definately fit right in! Edited June 25, 2007 by joseywales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kane Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I have to echo what's already been said. Great match and a great squad! It was fun to meet the Corpus crew that I read about so much in here. Thanks River City folks! I know that was a lot of work to put together. Looking forward to seeing the results. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGentry Posted June 26, 2007 Author Share Posted June 26, 2007 The results will be up shortly - it is taking more time than it should due to most of the score sheets coming in incompleted - not added up and missing information - you know - the regular stuff I want to thank everyone who came out to the match we had a great time - I just wish I could have caught the fact my scope mount came loose 3 stages earlier than I did!!!!
