Charles Bond Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Are there going to be any Target Vendors at the match? If so, who might they be, as I need targets for the local club and would rather pick them up there than pay for the shipping cost.Regards, Jack It does not look like it although the good news is that by next year, we may again have a target vendor within Area 6. For about any match, if you contact the MD in plenty of time you can add your club order to that of the match and pick them up at the match. Whether or not this would still work for this match would require you to talk to Cindy. Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00bullitt Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Tom Drazy from Drazy Metalworks is supposed to be coming down. You can email him(tom@drazymetalworks.com)what you want and he will trailer it down for pickup to save you shipping(assuming he comes). His number is 715-822-3465. He makes some really cool movers and swingers and drop outs as well as high quality poppers. I am sure if he had an order he would be more inclined to come down.

GAPEACH Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I was able to read the thread on prize distribution. We will be doing something similar to the way USPSA handles the Nationals distribution. The top "X" shooters (and the "X" will depend on the number of people in the division) will visit the prize table, then the 1st in class. Top lady and Top Junior will be in that mix somewhere, if there are at least 3 in a division. (Right now there is only one lady in the match, unless you count me and we will be in separate divisions if I shoot. There is only one Junior too.) Everyone else will be in order of finish. We could use more entries. I hope the fact that I am just now announcing prize distribution didn't keep too many of you away. The stages will be fun and it looks like the prize table will be great. We are waiving the late fee, so come on out and shoot the match! The side match will be a lot of fun and it has some great prizes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAPEACH Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Just got finished working on the USPSA self-squadding and I have added where you will start to the squad list. If you are not happy with your squad, you can move yourself using the pin that was emailed to you. If you don't have the pin any longer, just send me an email and I will get it to you.

ChristianHE Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Does anyone know what the box-looking thing inside the shooting area on Rifle Stage 3 ("Long Shots") is? I think it's probably something for support on the long shots, is it wood or sand bags? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAPEACH Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I think we are planning on having multiple ways to take those long shots. The block things are going to be hay bales and we will have an area for you to go prone if you like. Of course you can shoot them off-hand too. You will have to move around in the shooting area to get all the targets, so you might wind up using all different positions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Bond Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Cindy: Are you not telling them about the 350 yard target or were you able to get it on out closer to 400? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRUBL Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Is that Benny Hill's name I see in the match listing??? Come join our squad boy!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUBL Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 OK....question time, as I'm not to UP on the USPSA thing. Looking at the squading....I see where people are in Open, Limited and SSTK I see where SSTK is probably Heavy Metal, and Open is Open, and Limited is well, Limited (which I was to assume was an IRON site AR) Is it because this is a '3 gun' tournament as opposed to a Multi-Gun Match, eveyone with a limited pistol is listed that way....and the break out in the finals will show the Tactical Division for the rifle? Ofcourse, no idea if SSTK is Heavy metal optics or Heavy metal iron sight. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wgnoyes Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Self service squadding was designed for a pistol match, so it's not going to show your aggregate division. If your signup sheet showed tactical on it anywhere and the 3 guns met the requirements, you're shooting tactical aggregate, even if you can't see it, and with one exception, I registered you as pistol Ltd. As far as heavy metal goes, you can have a scope on a rifle now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Bond Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Just a heads up. We still have plently of room in the match now but applications are flowing in. If you desire to shoot this match, and those who have shot it before tend to return each year, go ahead and get your application in the mail before we sell out.

If you desire to shoot this match, and those who have shot it before tend to return each year, go ahead and get your application in the mail before we sell out. I noticed on the squadding page that the shooters' meetings are at "the pavillion". Where is that? Also, on shotgun stage 4 "Jungle Run" I noticed there is a "traveling 180". I've never shot one of those, I searched the .pdf rulebooks and did not find it listed, can you describe it? Thanks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is also where the vendors will be and where lunch is served. The traveling 180 just means that the 180 is not 180 to the start line. As long as the targets you are engaging are less than 180 degrees to where you are standing at the time you engage them, you are good to go. Since the jungle run is along a trail in the woods where you first traverse to the left of the starting position and then turn right, this actually aids the shooter and course designer in giving shooters more options as to where they can engage the targets.

ShooterSteve Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Could someone please post a link to where we can find the squads. I have sent in my registration, but I'm having trouble finding the match info. I saw the stages on the USPSA site, but I'm not seeing where to go for the match info. I'm probably overlooking it some where, but if some one could give me a gentle shove in the right direction I would be grateful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click on the bottom button, which is 'Additional Content'. Look in the list of things until you find 'Self Service Match Squadding'. Pick the Area 6 3 Gun Championship and look for your name.
