IDPA Classifier Match at USSA!

[Keyser328]

To the best of my knowledge, sign up begins at 9 and the match begins at 10. Hope to see you there man.

Bingo. Setup begins at 8 typically, but the match walk through is usually at 10am, followed by a shotgun start.

Definitely cool that you took away something useful from the match, thats awesome! Haha, yeah you had an interesting problem there, looked like you worked it out though. The barrels usually don't bother me much, but the low windows on stages give me trouble since I am fairly tall.

Had a great time guys! Thanks to everyone that made sure the match happened.

And I fully intend of making it next month for the shoothouse stages..

I was looking forward to the shoot so much but ended up sleeping through my alarm. How was it?

I had a great time. Three of the stages were the classifier, and the other three were rather creative. One was a shoot-on-the-move three car setup. I had a blast with it, and kept giggling about how "Bruce Willis" it was.

The second was a nice "real life" style scenario where you started at the passenger door of a vehicle with only 6 rounds, neutralized three targets, and fell back to the open trunk to pickup your ammo. You then advanced to the drivers door while neutralizing three more targets. I believe the concept was "get my buddy into the car and GTFO"

The last stage I believe Jerry designed. You started point blank to a target and retreated to the left while putting 6 rounds into the guy's chest. From there you triggered a swinger by hand and delivered 6 more shots while retreating. From what I was told, Jerry designed it based on a study he had read. According to the study, by retreating and moving left, your opponent has a harder time firing on you accurately. Jerry might be able to add more detail, but it is a very interesting piece of knowledge, for sure!

You missed a good time, get a new clock!

Damn! That sounds like a blast! I heard the next one has a shoothouse stage. Definently going to make next months! I hope it's a classifier match as well. If not, I guess I'll schedule a time to get classified. Already bought a new clock and set it 30 minutes early. lol. I guess the only upside from missing is now I have time to practice my draw. lol

i particularly liked the 3 car stage and the passenger to drivers stage. lots of hard cover to get in the way..
