TaterHead Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 (edited) The Rio Grande Practical Shooting Club is proud to announce our 4th Annual Match at the Albuquerque City Shooting Range Park. For the first three years, we were known as "Badlands" and the New Mexico Section Championship. Last year's match grew to almost 150 shooters, and the club has decided to continue the tradition, and start a new tradition of the High Desert Classic at Albuquerque. The New Mexico Section Championship moves from club to club in the section each year. We simply had the honor of doing it three years in a row. This year, the Sectional goes south to Las Cruces later in the year. Look for that announcement down the road. For now, come back and enjoy our trademark stages and match organization. The best stat's girl in the country, dedicated (and friendly RO's), a new random draw prize table, and Albuquerque! Visit rgpsc.com or uspsa2.org for applications. cya in June!

TaterHead Posted February 3, 2008 Author Share Posted February 3, 2008 whatmeworry certainly dates you, Pat! Mad magazine was an earlier generation. Current generation may not have a clue! Perhaps you should change your ID to Hannah Montana, maybe then you'll reach the masses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Miles Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 (edited) And this grief coming from somebody that goes by TATERHEAD! What's up with that! Okay Rod I give up, who's Hannah Montana? Joe's granddaughter? Or is she Helena Montana's daughter? CYa, Pat Edited February 8, 2008 by whatmeworry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket35 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Sounds like a great match- like the looks of the range too! I was just contacted by an old Marine Corps buddy I served with back in 91-93 and he lives outside Albuquerque. Would be a great chance to catch up with my old brother and shoot a great match if I wasn't already committed to ROing at the IN Section. "Thems is the breaks kid!"

Pat Miles Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Rocket, Ya pays your money and ya takes your chances. Come out and shoot with us next year. We'd love to have you! CYA, Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket35 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Thanks for the warm welcome Pat! I will have to keep it in mind. Would be nice if it was during the winter months though!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NMBOpen Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Thanks for the warm welcome Pat! I will have to keep it in mind. Would be nice if it was during the winter months though!! Rocket, I think you might have some unrealistic expectations of what winter is in northern New Mexico. A big match wouldn't be very pleasant with the cold, wind, and snow we get. Lots of tourists come through expecting the Phoenix/Tuscon climate and are very surprised. Ski season has been pretty good this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket35 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Yeah- but not nearly as bad as it has been this year according to my local source down there.. But I can imagine close to the mountains you can get anything....Still outta be better then up here weatherwise....for me anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Miles Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Rocket Dude, We normally have a fair amount of 50 degree days during the winter, not so this year. We would usually have good practices (set up a good, intense stage and shoot it several times then change it up) on the weekends we don't have club matches. Not this winter! I realize winter happens, even here in New Mexico and we are just along for the ride but I am ready for some warmer weather! CYa, Pat BTW, Sunday is supposed to be 61 degrees and we have a practice scheduled. Stand by to stand by! CYa, Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket35 Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Oh that is beautiful weather!! We are looking at a match this Sunday at sub-zero temperatures. Needless to say- I am staying home for this one...Which sux 'cause this is one of my rare weekends off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've ordered up some nice warm (not hot) days for this match, at considerable expense I might add, so hop yur a$$ over to Albuquerque and shoot this fun and challenging match.

Catfish Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Nice touch using a 1911 as one of the guns! Z will be very pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrmn1 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) The logo is nice but where is the real gun, the revolver? My check went in the mail today. What is the format going to be? Hopefully I can shoot it all on Saturday. Edited February 17, 2008 by vrmn1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
