I was planning to teach my dog how to smoke cigarettes in January, but that can wait until February. Feel free to talk bad about me in my absence |

As long as Dad is still alive and wanting to hunt, I'll be hunting with him. He needs me around in case he falls and can't get up. His life Alert doesn't work out in the woods. |

I am interested in attending. Does anyone have any additional info on the event?
Do i need to be a member? How much ammo? What gear to bring? What is the atmosphere for newcomers? Fee? |

http://www.scssa.org/toppage2.htm#Match Info
Mach info link Newcomers are very welcome and the atmosphere is fun-especially if you sign up to shoot with the ARFcom squad. I will be helping with registration, so just introduce yourself and we'll get you hooked up. One bit of warning, we like to have fun and insult each other's shooting ability, so if you have thin skin you might want to shoot in another squad...especially if you shoot a hostage! IM me with any other questions... Spoon |

Rifle, Sling, some mags, ammo, ear plugs, eye protection, chamber flag, anti-miata device, inflatable sheep. The atmosphere is great, leave any bullshit at home. The ARFCOM squad is the best group of guys to shoot with ever, be prepared to be ribbed a bit. Spoon can tell you what the fee is, but it is low (25.00?). Just have fun. It isn't an "Operators" class or anything, Blackwater will not be there screening candidates, SpecOps or the COD4 staff will not be having tryouts, it is a fun day, enjoy it. |

I dont have an inflatable sheep, But I have an inflatable goat if that is ok. And the cost is $20.00, acording to spoon a few days ago. |

Sounds like a good time. I will plan on getting down there and jump on the ARF squad.

Geneslpicer was that a driving school? Spoon is right you drive like a sissy girl. It was a BMWCCA track weekend at Barbers... hey... Those bikes you work on have more horses than what this miata has, sadly. Until next month, turbo goes on... 250hp in a 1800pd car that corners on rails should be feared! |

|
If you're talking about the tactical/practical matches, they are run by marka dn Mario and they have a lor of fun. Rules are relaxed (compared to IDPA and IPSC) but they are safety first guys. Nothing wrong with that...
IDPA is run by a good friend and they also have a thursday night match, both are excellent. |

Hope to see the usual good folks I shoot with. We will be maken the haul from south Ga.

I plan on being there. Im hpong to have lots of fun and to not embarress myself too bad.

Greetings from the Northeast. I'm not really AWOL, just can't figure out a way to make a living shooting and organizing matches. Still have to work (3wk training program in CT) to make ends meet.
The match will be the usual board of fare, 6-7 fun stages and things will be well organized in my absence. 150-175 rounds, 2-3 magazines and the means to carry them will be all you need. This is a "regular" match with a $20 entry fee. There'll be one stage with shots at the flash targets out to 200-250yds or so. Everything else will be 50yds and in. If you haven't been to Steel City since the May match, you'll be impressed with what has been done with E-range (the long range). Lots of opportunities for fun carbine stages! I'll miss hanging out with everyone for this one but will look forward to seeing you at Steel City soon. Take Care, David |

Take Care, David Forgive the noobness, because I have never done this before, but what is a flash target? |

Flash targets are the reactive steel targets we shoot at 100+yds. It's pretty easy to verify that you've hit them and you dont have to walk down range between shooters and reset them. The steel plate is approximately 10" in diameter. They're good to keep the match moving along (if the shooter hits them.....)

Looks like I'll learn a lot when I go to this match. We try to make it new shooter friendly. Lots of good folks who'll take care of you. You'll definitely have a good time. |

MadMike have no fear. This is the most fun and what I call doable match. Meaning targets are visible, ROs are a help, and everyone helps out. IM me if your looking for a squad. If you can handle the jokes shooting is easy!

This way I can put faces with names. I can take as well as give. I cant wait for the fun. I just hope I dont come dead last. |

Mike,
You'll do just fine and, more importantly, have a great time with the ARFCOM squad. Don't worry, lots of white pasters get used when these guys tackle a stage DT |

Even just mentioning his name makes me curse... |
