Benelli Chick Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 Yippee Skippee! You are the best d_ _ n cooks/chefs ever!!!!! My RO's will be happy! Told 'em you were coming last year, and then the hurricane and no shrimp etouffe! I will discuss hurricane season with the powers that be in order to ensure your safe arrival in Raton!

Oh yeah, and we enjoy you shooting with us, too!!! Denise and JJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gose Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 The rules say that slings might be required, does this apply to both shotgun and rifles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benelli Chick Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 It's possible. At this time, probably just rifle, but we will have some to borrow on any stages that require slings. Of course, you'll probably want to bring your own that you're familiar with! You want it to be the right length. See the video on our website. Cheryl's rifle sling is just short enough...almost!

Space Cowboy Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 This will be the first trip to RM3G for the wife and I. We are really looking forward to it. I was wondering what we should bring for hauling all of our stuff to the stages? Should we have a cart/wagon of some kind or will we be close enough to our vehicles to do without? I might be able to borrow a golf cart from a buddy if it makes a lot of sense and is allowed. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,Some walks [ hikes ] to the stages can be long ones. I use a Eberlestock Phantom bac pac to carry all my stuff. It will carry both long guns at the same time and has a large cargo area to hold eveything else. Weather can be warm in Aug. and it can rain very hard so plan on both. Have bug spray, anti fog for glasses and GOOD footwhere as you will be going over stuff that only bigfoot is used to, stay away from cleats. This match is very rifle heavy so prctice shooten long range from diffacult postions. Remember it is almost 7000 feet above see level. As to yer rifle zero I have never noticed a large point of impact differance from where I am at Las Vegas NV at 1500 ft. Yer Wife might get a little bored with the town itself but if she comes out to the range see will really enjoy the wildlife see will see, not talking about Kurt Miller...... Have FUNNNN.

AlamoShooter Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I gotta firgure out how to fit this in with it just one week before Steel Challenge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiggerJJ Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Larry sums it up well! A baby cart may be helpful, but remember you have to push/pull it up the hills as well as let it push/pull you down them. The low carts/wagons that have 8-10 inch tires don't work well at all over the terrain, plus they get really hard to pull/push up a hill. Last year there was about 11 miles from the 1st stage to the last, so a 25mph golf cart may be a bit slow, although it would work until its battery goes flat. you will however have to park it with the other shooters cars and walk to the stage. Most golf carts won't go some of the places we have gone in the past anyway... the method that seems to work the best is to drive your vehicle to each stage's parking area, then hump your stuff for for that stage only, don't forget your score sheet!!! Backpacks seem to be the best method of humping stuff...you don't need a $500 backpack, just have your long guns cased and a backpack big enough to hold 3 guns worth of stuff for 1 stage...and your score sheet... your car/vehicle; leave your cherry 1957 Vet at home. pickups trucks work best, but cars can make it to all stages. This year we probably won't as far up the canyon as in the past. (although we tried, we drove 4 miles past the mine looking this spring and found some kewl places!!!) bring lots of water (and your score sheet), be over-hydrated when you get here and stay that way throughout the weekend, it will combat altitude sickness which does hit a few of you flatlanders each year... sounds hokey but I can't stress the hydration thing enough. all stages are pretty much figured out, we will be making the 4 hour trip to Raton a couple more times before the big week to get em finalized. the stages we have this year will be, well, very interersting! now I need to work on the Big Johnson 3 Gun... jj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benelli Chick Posted June 11, 2009 Author Share Posted June 11, 2009 Got a question: One of our new shooters with his son are booked into the Colt Motel in Raton. I've always stayed at Whittington. If you know anything about it, he'd just like to know if the low price means it's a little buggy...or whatever. You can pm me if you don't feel comfortable posting on line! Thanks guys! See ya in less than 2 months!!!! Aargh!!!! Denise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
