    Del Norte and Zia Monthly Matches, New Mexico

    Curtis will run the match, as I will be taking another shooter's place in the Compatition Dynamics Team match that weekend. It came up rather suddenly, as one competitor was forced to back out, and I was asked to take his place. Again, I appologize for leaving, but I don't want to let my new...

    Thanks RJN, appreciate the help with the radios. I regret to inform however, that I may not be able to make this month's shoot. I am looking for someone to run it for me. I know, after all the talk, I may have to bail out... sorry, but I am trying to get someone to run this corse of fire if I...

    TexasMade, yes there is a web site. Search Zia Rifle and Pistol Club, Albuquerque, and you will find it. Ok, I'm going to do something unpresidented for Zia, I'm actually going to tell you what stages I am thinking of doing before the match, though, not the details. Here goes: 1 cold bore...

    I want to do movers, but I am so busy at work, I haven't had time to put anything together. We may just end up using the F-class berm and walking with paper targets behind the berm, as Sean points out, this method for movers is reliable, and has other options; as in, we can do a stage where we...

    well then, we should shoot at the white side of the cardboard targets at 600. Does anyone have walkie talkies that we could use for comunication behind the berms with the movers? We'll get that sorted out before we try it.

    movers, anyone? seriously, I've only ever shot them once at the SH Cup 2014, and I think we should try them out. I have an idea for doing regular movers at like 3-4 mph, at 600 yards, and also, another idea for doing them closer, say 300 yards or so, at a faster speed. Either way, I am...

    Del Norte and Zia Monthly Matches, New Mexico

    Thanks Ron. I think the wind was defenately a factor in bringing down the scores, and it would still have been pretty tough had we not had the wind. total points possible were 91. Average score was 34.8. The average hit ratio was 38%. usually, it is more like 50%-60%, so yah, I think it was...

    Del Norte and Zia Monthly Matches, New Mexico

    We forgot to bbq, but aside from that, I think a good time was had by all. Curtis came through with a very challenging match that had a lot of variety between stages, and a few things we haven't done in a while. We had a good spectrum of shooters from seasoned veterans, to a couple of new...

    Biggin69, mcfred is correct. Sign in is at 7:30, and we start shooting at 8:00. if you show up at 7:00 to 7:30, at the front gate you will most likely be able to catch somebody coming in. If not, as mcfred said, just get my cell number off of the Zia Gun Club web site, and I'll come let you...

    The next match is September 21 at Zia. Curtis will be running it this time. Be aware, it sounds like he has some tricks up his sleave. Seriously, it will be cool to have someone else's match design... change it up a little, and see what he has for us. Looking forward to it Curtis!

    Looks like everyone liked the match. Glad to hear it, I will take note of this match for future records. Thanks again! I'm going to step aside next month, and let Curtis design next month's match. He is my right-hand-man in running these things, and I couldn't do these without his help! He...

    Del Norte and Zia Monthly Matches, New Mexico

    LOL, yah, this particular match would be a lot harder if the wind was up, maybe we'll run it agin in the spring : ) Though, for as little wind as there was, I sure got caught in a wind shift it the first couple of stages. That's ok, I don't mind being wind bitch for everyone.

    Thanks Rick! Glad to hear the positive feedback on the match; I try, I really do. Glad to hear that I got this one right! From what I gathered from all the shooters, this month was really good, so you may see this match again some time down the road, when we're running out of ideas for a match...
