Why
 
Re: 2011 Bash

Guys it's called minimum manning. Have to have 15 guys on duty at all time and we have lost a couple over the past year. If you had leave scheduled at the beginning of the year when we do all the years leave then you get it and they hire OT to cover the slot. But if something comes up later and not enough people on duty then you don't get it off. Sucks but it's my job.

You guys have fun.

Rob, I'm no doctor. But good Scotch, fresh air at sea level, and three days in an arid climate usually cures that virus for me.

Re: 2011 Bash

Stop Busting Rob's Balls Guys! Rob is one of those guys (firefighter) that I'm glad he is there and is one of the only public service jobs that I feel is under appreciated and under paid.

Thanks for being there at work Rob! We will miss you and hoist a drink to you!
 
Re: 2011 Bash

The Bash takes place at Rifles Only in Kingsville, TX. Its rifle and pistol and usually a stage gun or two. You can probably read through the threads here in this subforum and learn about some the previous stages at the Cup/Bash.

Also, you can go to YouTube and search Rifles Only Sniper's Hide Bash or Rifles Only Sniper's Hide Cup to see some videos of stages from previous matches...
 
Re: 2011 Bash

Thanks, guys. After I posted here I just happened to click on one of the Rifles Only ads and stumbled across it on their site. Maybe I'm destined to check it out, especially since it's in driving distance. I'm thinking the train up would be a good idea, since the only comps I've ever done are local 3 gun matches, and I'm new to LR shooting. I'll also check out the threads/YT. I just ordered a new bolt gun & optic today. This has me wondering what additional range gear I'd need...anyone got a link to a good reference for that? I left a VM @ Rifles Only earlier, so hopefully I'll hear back from them soon. Meanwhile I've got some reading to do and gear to sort out. Can ya tell I'm stoked?

Agreed. Looks like a great challenge, especially for someone with my vast experience in LR shooting

. Any chance registration is closed already? Haven't heard back from RO, and can't find an application on their site. Sent an email last night, maybe they'll reply to that.

Registration usually is full within 10 minutes or less, so yeah it's closed. Lisa @ RO is super busy, but she will get back to you at some point. I would definitely get on top of my game and then shoot for the RO events. There are a lot of matches that are beginner friendly. I wouldn't say RO is beginner friendly. Just my opinion.

And just to clarify, you mean it isn't beginner friendly because of the difficulty of the match. As we all know, Ms. Lisa and Jacob are great people and will do anything they can to help everyone out.........
 
Re: 2011 Bash

Damn that sig of yours, NP. I can't help but stare at it...LMAO

Had a reply from Lisa by 8:45. I could still do the train up, but she also suggests PR 1&2 would be of more benefit, so I'm thinking of signing up for that. Might get a buddy to go. Would still love to see the match and expo. Maybe next year.

what do you mean I've been shooting it for 4 years straight!!!

I like the new one.....

Well I mean you and I are still noobs and all so I am not sure why we even try right?
 
Re: 2011 Bash

If they had PR 1&2 right before, I'd do just that. Any matches closer to Houston worth taking a look at?
Damn that chick in your sig again

. "oops!" she says. I'd be more than happy to show her some "oops" if I weren't happily married...a fact I may well be taking advantage of this evening.

Re: 2011 Bash

From Lisa's email it sounds like this years Bash will have less down time and more shooting....which is the way I like it!
Really looking forward to the match and seeing everyone again!
