Fun match yesterday. I even ended up second in my division. Of course there were only two people shooting single stack. LOL.

The HPPS club will be hosting another USPSA match at the Ben Lomond Range this Saturday. Setup starts at 7:30am and the shooters meeting starts at 9:30am. We have 6 fun stages planned for the match. This is going to be the first match we are using the Nook/Practiscore solution for match scoring instead of the Palms. Come on out and check out the future of match scoring while enjoying the fun stages to shoot.
Just an update. We are going to be doing 5 stages instead of 6. We also have the ability for shooters to sign up online at the link listed below.......

HPPS is having a work party this coming Sunday (11-25-12). The goal of the work party is to build two new Safe Area’s into the ends of the new competition bays. We will be using railroad ties for the structure of the safe areas and they are very dirty so if you come out to help wear some “Disposable” clothes as whatever you wear may be ruined by the dirty railroad ties. We will be starting at 8 AM at the competition bays and have all the tools needed to get the job done. All we need are volunteers to help make it happen. If you are free to help on Sunday please come out and help. For Ben Lomond members, assisting with this work party day does count against your Work Bond hours. So if you still need to get some Work Bond hours completed before year end this is an excellent opportunity to get it done.
If you can make it please let Charlie Perez know by calling him at 303-882-6728. Thanks in advance for helping with this project. The addition of the Safety Areas will greatly enhance the shooting experience for all shooters using the new competition bays.

We have 5 fun (Christmas Themed) stages planned for the match. The last work party was a success as we got two new Safe Area's built. They are ready to be used for this weekends match.
Come on out and have some fun!!!!

Looks like the moisture ended up further east. So, we're a go!
It is CO, so drive carefully.
Burritos? Don't know, but since I've not heard anything, those folks are probably not going to be there.
BS ends at 9:30. Be there.
The "Shoot More, Bitch Less" are RW Swainson's little calling cards. I've been trying to get one or two....
The HPPS club will be hosting another USPSA match at the Ben Lomond Gun Club this coming Saturday. For more information about the club or range please visit the HPPS website at www.hpps.org. The weather is forecast to be clear with a high temp of 54 degrees. This clear and warm weather is a welcomed change verses the arctic blast we had last weekend.
Stage Setup starts at 7:30AM
Match Registration starts at 8:30AM
Shooters Meeting at 9:45AM
Shooting Starts at 10:00AM
We will be running this match a little different this weekend. We are going to try a different way of using the stages in order to test some options proposed for the Mile High Showdown. We will have 6 stages to shoot, but there will not be a classifier stage. There will be plenty of shooting as the 6 stages will require a minimum of 154 rounds, so bring plenty of ammo to the match. You don’t want your shooting entertainment cut short by running out of ammo.
For our test to work properly we will need the squads to stick to a strict time schedule. We will distribute a match schedule to each squad during the shooters meeting. Please adhere to the defined match schedule, even if you are ahead of schedule. If you get ahead or behind schedule it will cause squad log jam issues which will invalidate the test.
Another Requirement for our test to work properly is to limit the maximum number of shooters to a total of 45. I hate to mandate a maximum shooter limit for a club match but this is required for this test to work properly. We will open match registration at 8:30AM and it will be run as first come first serve. If you delay in signing up and end up being the 46+ shooter, then you will be out of luck as you will not be able to participate in the match. I hate to turn people away that have driven all the way out to the range, but over subscribing the match registration will circumvent the effectiveness of the testing we plan on doing. We will do our best to get as many shooters into the match as possible, but we must stick to the 45 shooter limit.
Lastly, we had a few HPPS Club Board Members step down for the 2013 shooting season. We need to back fill their Board Positions. If you are interested in stepping up to the challenge of being on the HPPS Board and assisting with setting up and hosting the club matches please let me know. The only way these matches happen is with the volunteer help of very generous and dedicated shooters. If you have the ability to give back to the sport by volunteering your efforts on the HPPS Board please do so. These USPSA matches don’t happen magically all on their own.
Thank you for your time. See you bright and early Saturday morning.
