JThompson Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 (edited) A very special thanks to Rich from Canyon Creek he put some awesome guns on the table!!

Dale is checking to see if there was a refund issued, if not, he gets the gun. If, in fact, a refund was issued we will do a random for the remaining gun.

Coach Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Great match. Very well run and organized. Stages were challenging and I was found not worthy at the other end of the gun. A fun time was had by everyone in my group and we will be back. Thanks to the staff and everyone who had a hand in running this match. The weather man should have his teeth kicked in.

JThompson Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 (edited) Ask me after the rest of the props are put away, the rest of the guns awarded, and if I haven't been lynched, I might consider it. Dale and I have to agree to do it. It took both of us to pull it off and neither one is interested in doing it alone. I think we compliment each other fairly well, so we both have to agree. Also, Ray Hirst is interested in doing the match at PASA next year, so that's a consideration. If we take the match, he will get it the following year or visa versa. I was thinking of making a poll on it to help us decide where to hold it next year. Let the shooters decide...

foilhat Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Jim, Just got my vote in, hope it is in Tri County next year. Is a list available of how shooters scored overall, not just by division? Thanks again, I had a great time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again, I had a great time. Did you have someone is specific in mind? The answer to the question is yes, but I don't want to post everyone online. There are security issues, both civilian and law enforcement, which prevent me from doing so. That would be a nice option for the USPSA website. They already have a password system in place and could add that to the results page pretty easy. I can tell you how you and a buddy did overall if that's what you want to see.

JThompson Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 We'll have the rest of the guns posted on here and the website this evening. I'd like to send out a personal thank you to Gary Stevens. My error put him in line for the Custom Carry gun Richard Heinie built for the Area 5 match. I explained my error to him and he was very understanding. The custom gun will now be awarded to the person that deserves it. Let me rephrase that, Gary showed real class and I wish I had two so I could give him one too. The custon gone will be awarded to the senior who shot the highest percentage of their division GM. There was no GM in Gary;s division. Kudos to Gary for showing the integrity that we have come to expect from him as our Area director. Gary, the other error on your retirement date... you can disregard what I said to you at the match. Thanks pal... JT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JThompson Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Hey JT.... Is there an award for the most glass in one's back seat ?? Ah Nick, if there were, you would be the winner for sure. That might also be tied for the shooter who was in the most trouble for attending the match. How'd it go with the insurance company and the wife?

JT Well.......I am on probation with the wife for a little while but with some good deeds that will end. Even going through my insurance it ended up costing me a big chunk of change. I hope to hear some good news from Dale concerning this but I am not holding my breath. This could very well be the most expensive match I have ever been to.

Caspian_45 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Back window went BOOM!!!! Probably a bullet frag from the steel on the stage directly behind the car. Ours was right beside Nicks wifes car. We got lucky, he didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See post #358.......back window was hit by a ricochet. I think what happened was that a bullet from a miss on the steel climbed the wall, went straight up and back a bit then right down on your window.

JThompson Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 We had a bunch of the top dogs tell us they liked the match. Max sent me this and I thought I would share it here: Hey JT- I just wanted to take a moment to say thanks for putting on a great Area 5 Championship. You and your staff did an amazing job on the stages and everything ran extremely smooth. Despite the weather conditions, you guys found a way to keep things moving along safely and efficiently. I must say the entire operation was first class and felt like a National Championship with the stage difficulty/top notch staff. I truly look forward to shooting the Area 5 once again next year. Take some time to rest and please thank your staff for me as well. Thanks again! Max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JThompson Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 (edited) We also have to award these prizes yet... We have some Rudy glasses, some range bags donated by Brownell's and Shooters Connection. Brian's 550 press will also be awarded! We should have those done this weekend, sorry for the delay, but we're trying to get caught up on the job and everything else that was put on hold.

tk4 Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 My new CANYON CREEK CUSTOM LTD XDM arrived tonight. Wow! What a nice pistol. By far the best prize I have ever won. Thanks Rich. Thanks JT and Ray, and all who helped with the match, and STI for making it a contingency match. I really enjoyed the match. I live in Area 5, but this was the first time I have ever shot the Area 5 match. I almost skipped it this year. Glad I didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
