Larry White Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I wonder if the match folks will ever cash my entry check...or if they got it...Alex Alex, they havent cashed mine either and I know they they got it, I handed it to them. We pre ran the stages two weeks ago, as usuall they needed a few tweeks. It looks to be a fun match but will be a busy day. Looking forward to seeing all you folks again.----------Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike4045 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I turned mine in a match. So I know Bruce got it. I just need to get out and practice a little this week. Should be good match. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CocoBolo Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 It was a great match last year, I was done by 2 pm. Bring on the swingers and drop turners and throw in a couple of snapping clam shells, been there done that from a swinging bridge while dragging a dummy. I'm going to shoot tactical, so best of luck, nothing personal if I dethrone you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aircooled6racer Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Doug: I am sorry I missed the dinner this year but I had a Cub Scout Pinewood derby race in the mourning and then I shot the match so I could keep score on Sunday. It all worked out though Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ken hebert Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Shooting on Sunday was pretty cool. First time in my shooting career I had a target pulled for review--woo hoo! Didn't end up getting the points, but who cares, it was a new expierence. Note to self: next year shoot the steel stages when the sun is shining on then and not when it has them in a shadow. Was kinda embarrasing having a great run tarnished by not being able to find an 8" white painted plate in a Meopta scope. Gimme a while and I'm sure I'll be able to come up with a good excuse for it. Or find a way to blame it on Merlin... Great, right up until the drive home with a broken tire pressure monitor bouncing around inside your wheel. Do you have any idea how long it takes to drive from Corpus to Beaumont at about 50 mph? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You moved very fast and got into the last position faster than any one with that "kick and drop" to the low window. I haven't looked at many 223 holes in paper But I thought it was a double too. Nice shooting with you Alamo Edited January 19, 2009 by AlamoShooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlin Orr Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) Your boat tail rifle bullets at 20 yards are not yet stabilized - hence the not perfect holes. Who do you think you are?

bigbrowndog Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 If mister Alamo had been able to produce his highly touted "OVERLAY" Ken probably would have been given the points. ITS ALL HIS FAULT!!!!!!!!!!!! poor Ken, I feel so bad for him. trapr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all worked out though Thanks, Eric Eric, Sorry you couldn't make dinner, but you certainly made the right choice with the Pinewood derby race - you don't get too many chances at those. Dinner had another good turnout - 24 or 25 folks; both the steak and the company were excellent. Thanks to the great match staff who did all the work to put this together so we could play. It was especially cool to see the Stage 7 "Family Affair RO" crew - Mom, Dad, and Daughter all working together to RO a bunch of us 3-Gun nuts. Fantastic stages and not nearly the log-jams we saw last year - didn't see any instances of folks "stage jumping" this year, which was great. Special kudos to the great stats crew - from last shot fired to results posted was something like 15 minutes?? All in all, a fun day and I appreciate all the work everyone put into making it happen. See ya'll again next year. Doug J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had Real Tiers and its Called Crying not whining if you can make tiers. I think at least one of the stages Bully-ed me around, I should have checked my Crib-notes before I shot Edited January 19, 2009 by AlamoShooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike4045 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I had a good time at the match. It was the single worst match I have ever shot. I have to remember to loctite my scope next time. I think I will be going back to a C-more. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
