December 2014 Poplarville pistol match results

December 14, 2014 1 comment

Dawson PrecisionThe last match of the year, although lightly attended, was a good one. The weather was perfect, the stages challenging and the shooters were ready. Well, most of them were.

The time of year seemed to keep a lot of regulars at home today, but that didn’t stop the 12 competitors who did show up from having a great match. We had hoped to put on the big mover on stage 5, but we ended up pulling it out because of equipment failures. That’s too bad, because it looked challenging but actually wasn’t all that bad in the “after-match”. We’ll get it working reliably some day.

Even though it a quart low from a full match, that didn’t stop the overall winner from walking away with the top spot. Congratulations to Read more…

 **The Classic is Full! **

As of Wednesday, December 24, the match is full. If you haven’t sent in your registration, then you will be on the waiting list, at best.

Set your appointment calendar. The application for the 2015 Mississippi Classic is to be posted December 21th at approximately 8 PM. For more information, click the link here.

It appears registration will still be by mail, so you will have to do your best, but still hope the mailman treats you right. The match filled up in just a couple of days last year, so plan accordingly.

December Poplarville 3-gun match results

December 7, 2014 Leave a comment

We have moved into that time of year when the weather can be great one day and downright crappy the next. Today, it was overcast, breezy and cool until the very last shooter on the very last stage , when the sun finally came out. It hovered around 50 all day, as compared to a balmy 79 on Saturday afternoon for setup. Oh, well.

Once again, the turnout was a bit light, but for those that did show up, it was a good match. We shot four stages, which really tested the shooters skills. In fact, no one shot a clean match today. When the numbers were tallied, it was Read more…

November 2014 Pearlington pistol match results

November 16, 2014 Leave a comment

Although our fearless leader was vacationing in Mexico, the lackeys came through today. The workers bees pulled off a great match, beating the weather and the clock. We expected a few more shooters, with the Louisiana match being cancelled, but nevertheless, we will take what we get. There were 32 competitors today and we were headed home by 12:15 PM. Dry. Comfortable. Happy.

Once again, the weather was great, although the turnout was light. For some reason, only ten shooters came to test their skills (and luck) today over four challenging stages. We may be partial, but we think our brand of 3-gun is not your average match, and it offers challenges not normally found in traditional range-bound settings. Where else can you run through the woods blasting away at targets, while avoiding the hazards of stump holes, snakes, and evil vines looking to trip you?

Whatever the reason for not coming, those not there today missed a good one. Whatever seemed simple, wasn’t. Whatever looked hard, was harder than it looked. Returning to the top spot was Read more…

Sorry for the late results today. There were some issues with syncing the scores and it took until this evening to get things completed. However, the results will be worth the wait. There were 45 shooters today and near perfect weather. As the last match before the Gator next weekend, many of the competitors looked to get that last bit of practice in. Hopefully, you paid attention today if you are shooting the Gator…

And now, on to the results. Our match winner and Open division winner was Read more…
