I wish I was kidding, but I am not. I don't want to dog the place as it looked like they are new at it and doing the best with what they knew how. I am sure they will get the kinks worked out of their program eventually. Its a place for people to shoot which is more than not having a place to shoot so I can't complain too much.
i was there too was a little steep for only shooting until you get knocked out. would have been nice if there was a losers bracket or you get two chances. o well maybe over time it will get better! i will still go once or twice since having it every week is nice cause i cant always make the fri night matches at BRC or other clubs since i compete in rifle matches more often.
i was the big guy in the white shirt shooting the 1911 was also running late to the match, name was Jon cooper.
not a bad pro shop they had a sig mag i was looking for that i haven't been able to find anywhere. the range is very nice brand new and the place feels like going to a nice club or something. you get what you pay for plus discount on product in the store idk how much but some sort of deal if you join as a member.
it was a knock out style match where it was speed shooting with two people at once you had to shoot two into the white paper two targets than hit the knockdown target which was a small metal disk. you only needed 5 rounds if you didn't miss if you lost you where out. i fired i think 12 or 10 rounds since i won the first match.

i am not sure i dident get that far maybe! and no one told me you would so im guessing not.
This really sounds like a range that's trying to find it's way around the shooting sports arena. Not all clubs out there have the advantage of having 3/4 of their staff or BOD being nationally ranked USPSA/IDPA/gamer extrordinare shooters and have to kinda find their way through all the ideas on what to do at a match. Shoot off's are a blast, but you have to structure it right or never get shooters. The current Eastern CO USPSA section coordinator does shoot offs every year, and that's the only format I've ever shoot that was fair across the board.
I hope the range is open enough to take good advise from active shooters and get their matches formatted to bring shooters in.
Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.
Anyone that thinks war is good is ignorant. Anyone that thinks war isn't needed is stupid.
Maybe the next time someone is at this range they'll invite the people there to our matches?
