South Mississippi Practical Shooting

As many of you will remember, the Hattiesburg USPSA Club moved it’s match date temporarily from the fourth Saturday to the third Saturday of each month back in July.  This was done in an effort to accommodate the State Championship matches that were scheduled for the fourth Sunday in Biloxi  through the month of September.  Throughout that time period, the Club received so much positive feedback and so many requests from competitors to keep the third Saturday match date that it was decided a couple of weeks ago that making the change permanent had to be given proper consideration.

The decision process involved looking at what would be best for our competitors, the Hattiesburg Club, the relevant clubs in the Mississippi section, as well as for USPSA clubs in neighboring states.  After much discussion and deliberation, the decision has been made to make the change permanent.  This conclusion was reached with the knowledge that there could/would be negative consequences for some and for that you have our true and sincere apologies.  At the end of the day,  however, it appears that the advantages of making the change will outweigh the negatives for the vast majority of those involved.  Like the man said, you can please some of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.

So, I said all of that to say, we look forward to seeing you on the third Saturday of the month!  October’s match will be on the 21st and will be a great chance to warm up for the Louisiana Gator Classic that will held on October 28-29.  The remainder of the year’s matches will be updated in Practiscore shortly.
