Looking forward to it!

Haven't found anything to beat shoe goo.

Marshall Stone, as a Traditional shooter I very much like the sentiment. However I also don't know that I feel that the ROC has made decisions that hampers Traditional shooters or avoided things that might give them more of a competitive advantage. I know there have been a couple of questions I raised from the Traditional perspective, that might not have been forseen, but again never held back because of rules against my category. Opening the possible can of worms, is there something you would really see that would be changed or should be addressed with more "Traditional" representation? We are seeing an interesting uptick in Traditional shooters, I believe ~40% of the shooters at Land Run/Nationals were Traditional shooters.

This is a great match, with some of the best food you'll have at any shoot or otherwise.

Match must really be growing if they are expanding to the top 16 men and women!

Looking forward to it

Hattrick and Memphis Dundee! I guess those Oklahoma boys at least got safety figured out!

Ed Brown feed lips keep opening up on me and prevent a nice fall out. Using Colt Mags now and they have been great.

We are just two weeks away so get those applications in this weekend! Don't forget the fastest clean shooter takes home the custom engraved '97 PershingsPursuitWhosComing 8-24-22.pdf

As a quick update: We have a contract with Stone Castle Hotel in Branson, MO for our Saturday night Banquet and a discounted room rate. Mention you are with the Bear Creek Volunteers and you will receive a $97/ night discounted room rate, that will extend up to three days before and after the match should you choose to hang around and enjoy Branson, MO. This is a newly updated hotel and seems like a great place to stay. $97/night is hard to beat. This is a new location compared to years previous.

Here to say the same, two great articles about Wild Bunch. If we keep this up, we might look like a reputable group and everything....

This is great to hear. I love seeing TR and DB getting out to the masses. Now if I could just shoot DB full time for a main match I would be set!

Always love these as a great tool to set the hook.

I prefer the winchesters. I have shot a couple of chinese 97s and they just don't feel right. I wouldn't worry about the year as much as the condition. An 'E' series would be safe bet, as it was the last revision.

Has anyone seen the scores from the EOT Teddy Roosevelt and Doughboy match? Hopefully I am not just going blind....

Don't worry the Missouri territory should be well represented!

If only EoT was a little closer, I'd go to it all the time. It was a phenomenal match with some top notch shooters keeping everyone non their toes. We fit in some great side matches to boot! I am always up for adding in some Teddy Roosevelt and Doughboy action!

Glad I asked, I need to throw some more 45 in! Sounds like a blast, can't wait!

Any word on round count for Sidematches? BAMM ammo, TR, 1911, etc? Since I am flying and handing off my ammo to someone else I try not to get carried away.....

If we are talking about funny hats....I am in! I keep my kilt wearing to the summer though.

I am going to say the real issue, why would someone write the stage this way? Poor stage design. I can't imagine this rule being written with the intent for actually restaging for further use, but some of the the "more experienced" shooters can correct me. It is a no call with rounds on the left on the carrier, so laying down an overloaded long gun with closed on empty or fully open is allowed. Just a bit of a gamble in my opinion.
