Well folks...looks like this will be the last match for this season. Even the moderators of the events have been distracted.

Scores and a scan of the target sheet for the 13th match are due Sunday 5 Oct. 2014.

SHOOT OFTEN, SHOOT SAFE and HAVE FUN

~~Scaling is not working for me. What are the actual measurements of the outside diameter of the 7 ring for each caliber. I can scale if I have that information.~~
Lol, please disregard. I have learned to read since that last post.

Good shooting guys. I was just to tired after dealing with county fair over the weekend to do any shooting. I'll get ready for next year.

Well, it is annoying when somebody makes you snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Just found this. Stinks I missed it for this year. This is exactly what I've been looking for!

Norm_m · « **Reply #12 on:** November 02, 2014, 09:25:42 PM »

I wish they went all year long. I would not mind being in the cold and snow.

palonej · « **Reply #13 on:** November 02, 2014, 09:54:07 PM »

Me too Norm!!
I shoot outdoors all year long in NJ and would love to see the matches stay active in the winter!
I miss all the smack talk!!

sixshootertexan · « **Reply #14 on:** November 02, 2014, 11:41:43 PM »

Shooting in July August and September is not fun here. It's freaking hot. I'd shoot matches in the winter as long as it's not freezing.

farmerjoe99 · « **Reply #15 on:** November 03, 2014, 09:12:02 AM »

Well don't forget we can host our own matches.
Start one up, hopefully we can get more people involved
I too just found these matches a few weeks ago just as the official ones ended
but gard72977 has been nice enough to start hosting unofficial matches.
if you've got any ideas for a new match don't keep quiet

I do not think that extending the matches to winter months will do us any good if only one or two persons will post their targets, like it happened this year We need to start an advertising campaign to let all forum members know that these matches exist.
I personally, after joining GTA, didn't scroll that far down on the list of sub-forums for a long time so I was not aware that these competitions even existed.

Agreed I was on this forum over 4 month before I found the matches
and that was only because I use the " show unread posts since last visit "
button and happened to see the match end post...
The question is how to let people know about them and get them to compete?
I think a lot of people would enjoy it if they would just try it out.

Nice shooting all of you, and I think the guy to watch out for is Craig ..... Craig, did you do that shooting off of sticks/bipod? I just bought a Bog Pod bipod to practice for HFT.

I too don't see these unless they are in the "unread posts since last visit" ... my fault for not digging deep enough. I'll shoot in my basement all winter, only 10 yards.

We are thinking of installing a "shooting window" in a shed, use our portable benches, lighting, and a good heater. Don't need a fridge for the beer or Crown ..... just set outside in the snow. We would have out to a 50 yard range. We need to get started on that project. Oh, and the shed will need some Bluetooth available music, and a system with some punch.

If we could somehow show links to the match announcements and match results in Airgun Gate and maybe in PCP gate ( the two most active gates) that would give us significantly more exposure.

And monetary awards for the winners, of course. I bet Joe P. will agree with this one.

Thank you to our advertisers!
