It just keeps getting better and better!!  Today we set a new BPSA participation record at 63 shooters!!!  I guess word is getting out that we are running a class act.  Every month we hook a few more people on this sport and if you happened to look over at the new shooters briefing today, you would have seen a crowd of about 12 new shooters.  We are happy to have all of you, hope everyone had fun, and we hope to see you again next time.  Always glad to see our sport getting more and more popular.

The weather today was absolutely perfect and the range conditions could not have been better.   As usual, this month’s stages were second to none.  There was a little bit of everything here today…..Long shots, fast stages, mind benders, and even a couple of 3 shot twists.   Thanks to Gerwin and Bob for the excellent job done on stages 2 and 5.

We would like to thank everyone who came out today and I want to especially  thank everyone who helped set-up and those of you who helped break down. We appreciate it more than you can ever imagine.

As always, if anyone ever has an idea for a stage, you are welcome to come on out and have at it. Just let us know and we will reserve a bay for you. We will appreciate the help and you may just have a talent for stage design that you just don’t know about yet.

Again and as usual, thanks for all your help and support. Without you, we could not make this all happen!

Congratulations to this month’s winners….

The February BPSA match has come to a close and 57 shooters are going home with a big smile on their face.  The weather today was absolutely perfect and the range conditions could not have been better.  All afternoon folks were coming up to me and telling me how great the stages were and how much they enjoyed the match.  I think this match is getting better and better every month and we all need to thank Steven, Bryant, and Gerwin for their excellent stage designs.  Today’s match had something for everyone whether your talents tend to favor run-n-gun, moving targets, long shots, or unusually difficult and complex classifiers.  There was a little bit of everything here today.

It was muddy last month and no one seemed to mind.  Looking at the forecast, it will most likely be the same this Saturday.  Nonetheless….The Stages are ready and we will be there Saturday morning.  Match sign-up begins at 8:15 – Safety Briefing and Hammer Down at 9:00.   This month’s stages can be previewed by clicking on the stage icon below. We look forward seeing you there!!! Gate code 4000.  See you Saturday!

It was raining pretty hard and looking grime at 6:00 am.  Then the clouds parted, rain cleared, and by 9:00 the weather was great. That’s just January in South Mississippi! Range was a little muddy but the 37 shooters did not seem to care.   We had a great match today!!   I think that today’s match is just a preview of a great shooting year for BPSA and all the Mississippi clubs.

I want to thank everyone who helped set-up and those of you who helped break down. We appreciate it more than we can express.

UPDATE – Crazy as it seems, we are still going to shoot today!  Looks like we have one more band of showers, then it is clear for the rest of the day.   May be a little sloppy, but a what’s a little mud among friends…..   

Last month’s match was a bust but it’s a new year and we are all ready to shoot.  Can’t wait to see everyone and as always, we are counting on your help.  Don’t be shy…you can help by volunteering to R.O, help score, past and, of course, breaking down your last stage.  A little help goes a long way.  Match sign-up begins at 8:15 – Safety Briefing and Hammer Down at 9:00.   This month’s stages can be previewed by clicking on the stage icon below. We look forward seeing you there!!! Gate code 4000.  See you Saturday!

Due to many factors, one of which is the weather forecast, the match on Saturday is cancelled.  We at BPSA wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!  See you in January!!  Until then .. Be Safe…Have Fun!!!

Stages are set for Saturday.  As of now the match is a GO, but the forecast calls for 52 degrees and a 70% chance of rain.  That may get messy….  As we get closer, we will try to determine if the rain is forecasted for the morning or afternoon.  We will have to make a decision by Friday evening, so if there are any changes, we will post the update here.  Check back before you head out to the range.  If we do have to cancel, don’t despair…..The Pearlington match is on Sunday!!!

As always, we need R.O’s, help scoring, pasting and, of course, breaking down your last stage. Match sign-up begins at 8:15 – Safety Briefing and Hammer Down at 9:00.   This month’s stages can be previewed by clicking on the stage icon below. We look forward seeing you there!!! Gate code 4000.

This is a good time of year here in South Mississippi and we had another excellent day of shooting!!  Great match today with another batch of challenging stages.  We would like to thank Gerwin Henn, Bryant Willett, and  crews for coming out and setting up stages 2 and 5;  our two “Top Secret” stages.  You all can’t imagine how much we appreciate your help.  With the time change we didn’t think we would have near enough time on Friday night to set-up.  Thanks for jumping in because without your help, we would never have gotten everything finished in time for the Saturday’s  match.  We are really lucky to have folks that are willing to step up and chip in.

Just to let everyone know.. if anyone ever has any ideas for a stage, you are welcome to come on out and have at it. We appreciate the help and you may just have a talent for stage design that you just don’t know about yet.

Again and as usual, thanks for all your help and support of all our regulars. Without you, we could not make this all happen!

Congratulations to this month’s winners….
