bbbean Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 (edited) I'm headed to Santa Fe for a few days with my wife, my mother, and an old friend of my mother's. While I enjoy antiquing and looking at turquoise jewelry every bit as much as the next guy, the thought occurred to me that if there was a match within an easy drive from downtown I might step out and enjoy another aspect of local flavor for a few hours. Similar situation in Kansas City 8/1. Suggestions? Links? Edited June 23, 2009 by bbbean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobydog Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Not sure of what is an easy drive for you, but the Area 3 Championship is around the 8-1 date. In Louisville Nebraska. Here is the link.

Tobydog. http://www.easternnebraskapracticalshooter.../area3/2009.htm Area 3 at Omaha is 3 hours North of KC. There is a one day format on 7/31 if that helps. If you can't commit a full day detour to shoot A3 at Omaha,but make it into KC on Friday, there is a match at the Bullethole (www.bhpsc.us). Hope this helps.

joecichlid Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 If you were going to be in KC a day earlier there is a weekly match at The Bullet Hole. The Bullet Hole Practical Shooting Club meets every Friday night starting at 6:00pm if you can swing that. Let me know if you need directions or any other info. You can check out the club at http://bhpsc.us Joe W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbbean Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 Thanks for the suggestions. I may check out the Bullet Hole match as time gets closer. I do need the match to be within an hour or so of the Plaza in KC or downtown Santa Fe - I'm trying to squeeze the match in with everyone else's vacation/conference schedules.

joecichlid Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 The Bullet Hole fills the bill. The range is less than 15 minutes as the crow flies from the Plaza *or about 30 minutes as the car drives on the Plaza*. If you make it while you are in town look up the long haired Match Director and say hi. Joe W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blkbrd Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Funny thing is every time I go to Santa Fe, all I can do is eat. I believe the best food in the world is in Santa Fe. Close enough to Las Cruces to have lots of good green chili, Indian flare with smokey red chili and a Spanish influence without being ruined by the California or Texas interpretations.
