Wish I could, but I'll be at the Western States Single Stack the weekend before, and I didn't think I could swing both.  I will still be shooting a 1911 along with 300+ others!

I am. Shooting the old/new Classic Traditional Elder Statesman

I understand over half the shooters switched to Classic.  YEEEEEE  HAAAAAA !!!!!!!!

Others would have but didn't bring the larger caliber rifles when they snow birded.

Awesome!

Super glad folks are embracing the choices in categories with the addition of the classics! 

Look forward to seeing you there!

I think it would be perfect if at all major matches that around half signed up for Classic categories.

This would the balance we all hoped for, with everyone picking what fits for them.

I'm very glad to hear that several have moved over to it.

See many of you in about 2 weeks!

Hi All,

I don't think we are back where we started in the least.

  • 3 years ago there were less then 25 clubs holding official WB matches or offering organized WB programs
    • Now we have over 95 clubs
  • 3 years ago we had a very small minority making the decisions for WB
    • Now we have over 95 WB-TG's bringing the voices of their clubs world wide to the table
  • 3 years ago anyone wanting to try WB had to make a big investment in a 1911, a 40 cal or above rifle and a pump sg
    • Now everyone can play by simply adding a 1911
  • 3 years ago it was offered to have a "open" class and was rejected 
    • Now we have approached it from the other direction and have the classic categories as a win win for everyone
  • Now we have more people doing/ trying WB then ever in the history of WB
  • This year, there will be more organized sanctioned WB championship matches then ever held in a year (State, and Territorial)

I would say we  are a long way from where we were and the future looks pretty bright for the sport.

In a week we will have a WB-TG meeting at EOT and we hope there are several more great ideas for WB brought to the table for discussions  to start for 2026!

Everyone have a super rest of the week,

CC
