CRC / Beyers Practical Rifle

Lots of fun. Really starting to appreciate the need for speed for points and HF. Set-up and tear down were all faster. Tom and I spent a lot of time putting one stage up. It is interesting how paper plan has to be tweaked for reality. And someone always bitches in the end .

I wouldn't mind trying to design a stage. What is the best resource for the rules on stage design, versus reverse engineering from experience? The 2x2 walls are so much easier to work with, and I have some ideas on further light weighting. Maybe for the next one I could set up an 'experimental' bay to see how they might work?

Anyone else go for the face on the knife target?

One of the guys in our squad decided against stabbing and instead beheaded the target.

No doubt that stage design and building is always challenging. There is only one way to get better at this and that is to just do it.

Tom has a lot of experience doing both and he is great to work with. I have designed stages, given them to Tom and let him interpret the design by adding his own flair to it. I have yet to be disappointed by his execution. He always manages to take an idea and elevate the fun factor by quite a few notches.

As Mark said, start putting ideas on paper and share them with others. Be receptive to criticism and never, never, never fall in love with your own vision of the stage. It's humbling to watch another person dissect your idea and point out details that had not occurred to you.

FIFY... It's FUN to watch another person dissect your idea and SHOOT YOUR STAGE A WAY that had not occurred to you.
