Sorry, guys, I've been looking forward to this for weeks, I got into the 9pm slot and still couldn't get free in time. I hope someone was there to take advantage of the open spot from my no-show...

Congrats to Joe Conners and Caleb Fitzgerald who both shot perfect matches, zero points down and no penalties!
Next match will be Tuesday 27-March and we will be shooting the Classifier as part of the match.
Thanks to everyone who came out to shoot, and special thanks to Tom Ives, joshs, JV, and FredM for helping set up.
I really have to hurry up and buy a "gamer gun", you know, a G26 or something to go with my G34 carry gun. And, yes, I still find that funny. :-)
66.43 and down zero, if it counted...
Thanks for putting the match together, that was a whole lot of fun. I learned I need to practice with the pistol more, and don't stare at the target on those several-hit ones. I found myself watching the bullet holes form--I have no idea how I was hitting the A-zone. On Stage 2 (10 hits on one target) I sprayed my first couple shots, got under control for the next few, then after the mag change I don't think I even saw the gun (much less the front sight), just watched the hits. I lucked out somehow.
Well,
At least I can say that I shot a clean match before being Disqualified for "breaking the 180".
I just wanted to thank ToddG for his professionalism last night and for being fair and just with the rules. I learned last night what it means to be complacent. In the second stage with the couch, we were supposed to place the firearm on the chair with a full magazine. I moved the chair so that the firearm was thus breaking the 180. I was disqualified on the spot and justly so. I learned last night what it means to be complacent and I am glad that the guys running the match were nice about it.
Won't happen again!

Todd - Thanks to you and the other guys for running another enjoyable match!
Stuff happens. One of the first matches I ever shot at the NRA back in the late 90's, while I was actually working there, I got DQ'd for breaking the 180, too. The difference is that I drew my gun while facing uprange at the beginning of an El Presidente, then swept just about everyone as I spun around.
So "my muzzle was pointed at the side wall instead of the back wall" is pretty low down on the scale of brain farts, dude. Thanks for taking it so well. Lesson learned. I'll bet a dollar you never do it again.
(unlike Chris, who I'm betting will continue to knock over buckets of water at random throughout his life because he's just that kind of guy)
Probably not until 12-March.
Todd,
Yeah, it definitely won't happen again. What's ironic is that I came home with all my ammo but one round, and my roommate Long shot all his ammo last night. I enjoyed the kitsch, especially the Cupid stage.
Thank you once again for putting this together! It was enjoyable.
