    If you want to follow the rule book, no, bowling pins aren't allowed. But it isn't a sanctioned match, so, for me, I say bring whatever you can to be fun. Some might disagree.

    I have a dozen pins if the powers that be decide to make a match with them.

    I have 17 pins myself just sitting around. I'm heading up to Cheyenne on Friday and was thinking about swinging over to get them if they could be used at a match.

    On a more serious note, if anyone that designs stages is reading, I'd like to see a little more single hand/weak hand stuff, especially right before Classifier.

    Bowling pins ricochet really bad that is what I would be cautious of.

    Yeah, shooting at them with a .22 at even 50 yards and you don't really get any penetration.

    Not only NO, but NO WAY! Don't even think about it. We have plenty of steel.
    Good Shooting, MarkCO

    Okay, sounds good to me. I'm sure I could just as easily recreate my idea with steal. Thanks for answering Mark.

    Shooters,

    It's that time of the month again for ECOIDPA.

    Last range report was that it's a muddy mess, so we are going to watch the weather and make a call a day or two before the match. Forecast is also calling for 43 degrees and 20 mph winds which is never fun either. Unfortunately its also THAT time of year as well (nasty weather)

    As always:
    If the match is cancelled it will be posted here, on the website as well as on the ECOIDPA facebook page.

    Note some changes in the scheduling, make sure you don't miss out!

    The new shooters meeting is pretty extensive to give the new IDPA shooters as much information as we can, so that's taking about 45 mins to cover. As a result we're bumping the new shooter meeting forward to 8:45am. New shooters please arrive prior to 8:30 for registration. Registration will close and the pre-match shooters meeting will be begin at 9:30am with the match start at 10am as normal. Below are the updated times that have been placed on the website.



    ECOIDPA - http://www.ecoidpa.com
    Hosted at Colorado Rifle Club - http://www.crci.org/
    When: 4th Saturday of Each Month
    Times: Setup - 7:30am ($5 Match fee discount for those helping with setup),
    New Shooter Meeting (Mandatory for all new IDPA Competitors) - 8:45am - New Shooters Must Register by 8:30am
    Shooters Meeting - 9:30am
    First Shots - ~10:00am
    Cost: Match fee $20 ($15 if you are there and help with setup)
    Questions: See the website or email the match director at kris@ecoidpa.com


    Thanks and hopefully we will see you on the range!

    Kris
    ECOIDPA
