The November 2018 USPSA match in Poplarville has been cancelled due to the conflict with the Gator Classic in Louisiana. This match will NOT be rescheduled.

Once again, a nice day was missed by many of the regulars. There were only 11 shooters today, but they enjoyed some interesting, and different stages. It’s tough coming up with something different each month, but somehow, it seems to work every time. There was something for everybody on at least one of their stages. The weather also cooperated and made for a great day, environmentally. The cloud cover kept the temperature at bay and it was kind of Goldilocks all day long (not to hot, not too cold, …).

With Kevin shooting the Voodoo on the Bayou 3-Gun match, the top spot was just waiting for a new face. The face that actually showed up wasn’t exactly new to the winner’s circle, but he hasn’t been there too much recently. Back on top of the heap with a consistent performance all day was  Read more…

This weekend, it’s 3-gun in the woods of Poplarville! The match will be this coming Sunday, November 4, 2018 at 9 AM. Expect four stages, with some long rifle shots. All those participating will get an extra hour of sleep Saturday night, courtesy of the end of Daylight Saving Time. Don’t forget to set your clocks BACK one hour Saturday night. If you do forget, you might get there in time to help staple up some targets!

The weather was more fall-ish than it has been in a long, long time, but it did get just a bit warm in the Sun. That didn’t stop the 40 shooters who came out today from enjoying the six stages of sheer joy that we put together. OK, it wasn’t that joyous for everyone, but with Nationals starting next Saturday, the nine competitors from today’s match going to Nationals got some final match level practice in. Nationals is hard, period. Today, we had some stages that were even tougher than planned, so it worked out. We now have this week to practice on those weaknesses.

There was lots of hard cover and no-shoots all over the place. Only one stage had wide open targets with no danger (other than the ever present Mike), other than going too fast. Two shooters managed to have just one Mike for the whole match, while the rest of us kept going ka-ching! all over the place. There were even a few comments along the lines of this being our toughest match ever! Maybe so, but it didn’t start out to be that way. Sometimes, you set up a stage and think, “this won’t be too bad” but you end up wrong, dead wrong. I was told stage 6 should have been named “Thanks A LOT!”

When all the crying was done, there was a winner*. The overall winner* and Open title* goes to  Read more…
