Re: SHWW Group
Thanks again to Jim and Jesse for going to all the trouble on this - it was a lot of fun and a great opportunity for us folks that don't get a lot of trigger-time doing off-hand, weak-side, barrier,...etc. I look forward to the next one.
I do have a couple of suggestions for the RO's,... if you don't mind. The first is in regard to the stopwatch. I think the time allowed for each stage was adequate, but as a shooter I never had a sense of how much time was left. I'd simply ask that someone (the RO or a fellow shooter in the group enlisted to run the stopwatch) call out the time remaining every 30-sec until the last 30-sec, then call 15-sec, and finally 5-sec, CEASE FIRE! On some of the longer stages (1-min +) it's really difficult to judge what time is left. I doubt it would have helped many finish a stage, but it would have more than likely allowed a shooter to get off one more shot before the clock ran out,... just a thought.
Also, whomever is spotting i.e. calling "hit" and "miss", could try to differenciate the two words by pronouncing them distinctly/differently as it was hard as a shooter (ears ringing from the last shot, not to mention ear-plugs in your ears) to know if it was a hit or a miss as they were pronounced identically,... just a thought.
Again, thanks for the shoot, it was great fun!
