pmd Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 One of my goals has been to visit every US state. I've been thinking - I do enjoy traveling to matches (SCSA, USPSA, etc) and shooting at different ranges. To date I've been to matches in 16 States - If I could swing about 2 matches a year in a new State I could have shot a match in every state by the time I'm 60 (Depending on the work $ situation). Or maybe I should just wait till I retire and be a Nomad shooter. How many states have you been to? Any one shot every state in the US? just wondering...

Chris Keen Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 (edited) Well lookie there .... I forgot South Carolina!

Chris you need to come down here to texas and we can shoot ipsc matches in the daytime under the nice humidified air, and go hunting mosquitos at night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j1b Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Never counted, let me see . . . Alaska Arizona Oregon Washington California Idaho Colorado Illinois Texas Nevada Oklahoma Arkansas Louisiana Missouri Pennsylvania West Virginia New Mexico Only 17 I guess. Missing some easy ones though that will hopefully get resolved over the next few years. I am astounded I've never shot a math in Florida. Ohio, Michigan, the Carolina's - they should all be within reach. Not certain if I'll ever swing through the New England states. I ain't ruling anything out though. Will edit if I think of others.

Jim Norman Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I to have thought of the Nomad Shooter, load up the RV and go, a match every weekend or every other weekend and a lot of touring between. So far: (in descending order of number of matches) New Jersey Pennsylvania New York Vermont Virginia Illinois Oklahoma Maryland Massachusetts Plus North Carolina and Georgia (Multi-Gun, Non-USPSA) So 11 States so far.

Flyin40 Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I was thinking about this a couple of weeks ago. Its a goal for me too. I'm in Ohio and I was thinking about a trip out west. Originally I wanted them to be all major matches but I'm not sure about that yet. That makes it alot harder and and will take alot longer. I was thinking along the lines of finding some matches in an area that I could hit 4 states in a week. I could be any type of match, steel, nra or whatever and if I didn't limited myself to major matches I could map matches in 4 states in one trip. Doing local matches would cut down travel time if I could find 2 clubs on each states border. Even would be great if I could find a match during the week. The a trip West I would just fly. Maybe find a match in upper Idaho and hit Montana, Washington and Oregon also. We have relatives in Idaho so that would make a nice trip and maybe get some Elk hunting also. The biggest thing I see if I fly is ammo which I would just ship or buy it out there. Flyin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bwana Six-Gun Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I guess I am the real rookie. Only four states so far, and adding another in Oct., but they have all been majors. Mississippi (MS Classic, every year since it's inception, 13 I think.) Louisiana (Area Four x1, Gator Classic x1, Southern Regional ICORE x2) Oklahoma USPSA Nationals x2) Texas (Shirley Skinner Fund Raiser x1) Tennessee (Memphis Charity Challenge in October.)
