ORSA August IDPA Match

[Jamie Jackson]

Just a head's up. The stages for the August 4th Match at ORSA have been posted. here.

It looks like it'll be another fun match.

I plan on running my G17 with XS Big Dots and see if I can hit anything .

Anybody else running XS Big Dots? What do you think about 'em?

See you guys there.

No big dots for me but I should be there!

Excellent!

See you there Jeremy.

Big Dots, perfect for those distances where you don't need sights.

[BrasilNuts]

I'll be there...weather should be nice, high of 88.

Sights? You mean actually use my sights? Naw...I like to think of 'em as a hood ornament, like on an old Cadillac.

But yer probably right...What the heck. LOL

Will the match run tomorrow rain or shine?

I am hoping for no rain, some clouds; but I am no weatherman.

I understand a little drizzle should not be a problem, but what about heavier more sustained rain.

I would like to prevent driving up there for no reason, but not sure what the guidelines are for weather.

[jeremy155rr]

We shoot in the rain, nothing crazy but a drizzle won't stop us normally. This go around I'm just gonna say I want to start on stage two or three. I like to start on the one directly across from the sign in area (believe that is three). Come join me.

[Jamie Jackson]

The "weather-guesser" is calling for a 50% chance of rain tomorrow...that's also a 50% chance of no rain...I'm good with that.

See you guys in the AM.

[Spiffy]

I think the rule is if it starts lighting they stop. Then again the last rainy match they still had a 100. I'm bringing my camera to see if I can get some action shots for everyone. I think it would be nice to have some in case you wanna spam facebook or BEons LOL.

Neither rain, nor snow, nor heat or cold will prevent us from engaging our targets with numerous rounds. Only lightning.

That seems to be the only thing to stop it. I was at a match once when lightning cancelled the match. I was one of the few that completed the stages. I think there wer only five that day..

Had a blast guys, sucked it up big time, but had a blast! Steve, Aaron, Ken, sorry you didn't get to join us, we'll have to better orchestrate that next time! Probably have some vids up tomorrow.

[Jamie Jackson]

Had a great time as well! Cloudy...but no rain. Excellent weather to my way of thinking.

I enjoyed meeting new folks and getting to shoot again with Jeremy, BrasilNuts, Spiffy, Brad & (New shooter Brad's Brother Brian), and other great folks whose names I can't recall because I am old fart.

And I got to meet bubbiesdad.

It's good to be able to put faces with names. I'm already looking forward to the next match.

Looking forward to the vids Jeremy. Thank you.

I could hear me talking to Prag on 7 - I sound sooo country when I hear myself talk on tape LOL.

4 hours of standing around and pasting targets for about 3 mins of shooting!

Good thing they weren't far enough away to need sights my friend. I would have been in trouble. LOL

[bubbiesdad]

Got my video done. My editing skills are improving.
