The Penultimate Bang Ping

Postby selurcspi on Fri Sep 10, 2010 7:15 am

So, here we are, just 8 days away, Who's coming to Hutch next Saturday 9/18?

What's needed
Consider this a gun fight......Bring a gun!......9mm/.38 will basically be the minimum, as you will need the power to knockdown some plates.
Holster, not needed for a Tyro, but you cannot shoot Man v Man without one. The trigger MUST be covered.
Round count, in a perfect world 100 would suffice. If you have the slightest idea you might miss, bring more....lots more. I don't miss much but I still bring 200
Hearing protection, if you want to be able to talk with your grandkids bring it, learning sign language at 50 isn't easy.
Eye Protection, good quality sunglasses, safety glasses or prescription glasses are MANDATORY, they should wrap around the side or have side panels.
Think of your shooting glasses as your American Express Card, don't leave home without them. We're shooting at Steel, bullets shatter, pieces of them bounce.
Clothes...This is Minnesota, bring snow clothes, rain gear, sunscreen, shorts....you get the picture...be a boy scout.
Hydration, bring something to drink, it may be hot (or cold) so bring water or something else. (personally I don't consume caffeine when shooting it gives me the shakes)
Food, the town is six miles from the range and there are no facilities on site, bring some lunch, you might get hungry otherwise.
Start Time, Setup will be at 8:30, Shooting will start at 9:30.
COF, Four stages, each of 4 strings with the best three times to count. The winner will be the one with the lowest total time for the 12
$10 for Non Members, $5 for Members. (Gopher Campfire Club Members)
NRA, MADFI, MN DNR, Certified Instructor

Well in that case ..... Does Mr. Cannon need a ride? :-)
I'll be driving in via 394 -> 12 -> etc. After myself, Pat Cannon, and HammAR(?) I have one spot left.

I've heard that's the key to staying married for a long time.
