michaels Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Cliff maybe you should get some more moonclips Who do I see about that??? Cliff, are you staying with Jbag & Danbagger this weekend? mike That's the plan. OK, today Dan returned the Vet Reference medical books that he borrowed from my wife that she uses in her clinic, one of the books appeared to have had a section photocopied from it, you could tell by the way the spine of the book was bent and the pages were a little out of wack. The section copied was 4.2.5 thru 4.3.8, all about castration of farm animals. Good luck with the match, tell Elliot hi for me and I'm sorry I couldn't make the match.

scooterj Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 Must be true what they say about wheelgunners. Only time I heard any moaning is when Bubber didn't even shoot at one of the targets Gonna see about shooting the ICORE Cup in Miss. and Rick's match in Ark. Will post a link to the results when available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bwana Six-Gun Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Scooter, don't be in a rush to post that link to the scores. I'm not sure I want to see how bad I really did. On a more positive note, I have to say that I can't remember a match that I have enjoyed more, and that includes past Southern Regionals, Gator Classics, and Miss. Classics. I was fortunate enough to shoot on a great squad that included John Bagakis, Dan Carden, Cliff Walsh, Ed and Corley Marsalis, Danny Warren, Tommy Cabell and a host of others whose names I can't recall right now. (I have had a couple of adult beverages.) I learned a lot watching the really good shooters and had the benefit of their coaching when they weren't shooting. Thanks to all of you. It was also fun trading smack with Cliff and Danny and the rest. It kept the mood light. Super thanks to Annette and Elliot Ayssen, Joe Touchton, Barbara and Gary Thibadaux (sp), Forest (I can't spell his last name), Denise Fox, Ed Kriger, the Durochers and all the rest who worked so hard to make the match what it was, and that was GREAT! It was also great to meet a lot of fellow forum members and be able to put names to faces. I hope to see a bunch of you here in Jackson is six weeks for the Miss. Classic. I (We) will try to make our match live up to this one. Same thing for the ICORE CUP in October. It was great to see you all. PAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Bagakis Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Great Match, RO's, Shooters. Thanks to all that made that such a great match, I hope to go back for the Gator Classic later this year. Big news!!!! Big change to Far and Near Standards at the IRC this Year, Ron W. announced that the par times for the Standards has been removed, so no more over time shots! This should help out a lot of shooters!!! Thanks John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks John With that said will the standards be scored as all other courses of fire as time used to complete, B 1 point, C 2 points, A 0 points and X's deduct from the total. Might as well just take the standards out as they will just be another course of fire with a little twist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the Standards are part of the IRC, They have been there as long as I have shot the IRC. I am not a big fan of changing them. I have had the Standards help make most of my matches, but I have been hit with and over time shot and that hurts. I have always said they need to bring the over time down to 5 seconds like the rest of the penaties. But, I think this is a good fix to make the standards better for most shooters. My 2 cents!

99gski Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Hi everyone, I had such a great time at my first ICORE match. Fun & challenging stages, great people and that wonderful southern hospitality... What can I say? I think I might be hooked on ICORE! I managed to get some photos and video of shooters while I was there and put together a little montage. I apologize for the quality. When I converted to iMovie, the clips inherited some skips, but that just makes us all look faster, right? Here's the link: Thanks again to Annette & Elliot and all the wonderful people who helped me get through the match. There are just too many to name!!! I plan on posting photos soon too. Thanks again!!! Julie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRodriguez Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 that sucks that they did that to the standards, they might as well get rid of the extra shot/extra hit and then we can go for a zero score at the 10 and 3 yard line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmoney Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I'll say it again: I think they should have a standards stage at every IRC, but vary it up each year and not reveal all the details ahead of time. That would make it more of a real test of true shooting ability under match pressure, and less of a function of how many times you have run the damn thing over and over on the practice range. I have the same criticism of Steel Challenge and Bianchi. I think shooting matches should be about shooting skill, not about "muscle memory." Just my opinion.

jmax Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Tough standards were the norm across the board in the past and we are moving to spray & pray but alas we forget the reasons for them, test fundamental skill sets. I agree with Mike, vary them and keep them quiet but talking to Ron W. they haven't made a significant statistical difference in final results over the years. But the results are public, we must all feel good about ourselves and public details are uncomfortable. The good shooters will still finish well and poor shooters will still do poorly but will now have less to whine about. I like F&N for the disaster factor. A couple of weekends ago I pooped on my score due to a mechanical malfunction, it drove home the point of proper maintenance and checking of one's equipment.

I have the same criticism of Steel Challenge and Bianchi. I think shooting matches should be about shooting skill, not about "muscle memory." Just my opinion. The problem with that is that the people who put on the match are also shooters in the match. You create 2 classes of shooters. Those in the know and those not. Thanks to Bagakis for letting all of the shooters know about the change in the Standards, regretable as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliffwalsh Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 A couple of weekends ago I pooped on my score due to a mechanical malfunction, it drove home the point of proper maintenance and checking of one's equipment. That is the point. You get to shoot it many times before the IRC. Most of the local icore guys shoot it everyday leading up to the IRC. Those who do not get to shoot it at all are at a huge disadvantage. I think you will find that most of the shooters who want it in are the same ones who shoot it many times before the match. Why not have it every other year? In the off year have a 60 round field course. That should even up things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bwana Six-Gun Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Hey forget the IRC for a minute. I haven't been, and probably at my age won't get to it. (Yes Cliff, I am old as you pointed out to everyone within earshot this week-end.) Let's talk about the Southern Regional. Cliff, I got your butt on the standards. Thank you very much! It was a great match. Discuss the standards elsewear. Thanks Julie for the great video. I'm surprised the camera did not break filming Cliff. Too bad you did not get a shot of his great shirt. Hope someone else did. PAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
