The first really nice day of the fall shooting season saw 25 shooters make the trip to Poplarville for 3-Gun. This was our biggest 3-gun turnout in quite some time as well. Wayne was back and the stages stretched out a big, and this brought an extra dose of reality. If you didn’t know your scope’s zero, you might have had a rough day. The four stages presented a variety of challenges from quick gun handling with no reloaded needed (right?) to lots of movement with multiple skills required. Just when you thought the day was going to be won by the fittest/youngest shooter, the most physically challenged shooter (Joe Jones) won the stage with the most movement (stage 3). Go figure?! My theory is he couldn’t run so he wasn’t out of breath when he got to the rifle portion of the stage and wasn’t breathing hard, like the rest up us who sprinted all the way and found the tiny little x on the crosshairs was a bit too jumpy to find the actual target. Let that be a lesson to the rest of us.

Today’s match was a great way to celebrate the Labor Day weekend! We had a good turnout considering the holiday, with 14 shooters making the trip. We set up 4 challenging, but relatively short stages that allowed us to finish, pack up and be on the way home before Noon. It ended up being pretty hot and humid by the end of the match so being done sooner rather than later was a good thing.

We planned for hot weather, and guess what? We were right. It was hot! But the quick stages and lack of steel helped things move along. We were done shooting before Noon and were on the road by 12:30 PM. And, it started raining just as we were pulling out. Talk about timing…

For the second straight month, the turnout was fantastic. We had 37 shooters come out to challenge the heat. We had one shooter that retired due to an injury and one unfortunate DQ. But it seems like everyone else liked the quick, but surprisingly challenging stages.

The overall match winner is no stranger to podium finished. Standing atop the heap once again was  Read more…
