Well, we got lucky with the weather for setup on Friday, but it didn’t help us during the match. I really cannot remember the last time we had such miserable conditions. Big thanks to Mike Wingard, Derrick Hernandez, Aaron Banks, John Edens, Ryan Lee, Chris Payeur & his wife for all the hard work at setup. With all the rain forecast, I was expecting we would have only about 18 to 20 shooters. Instead, we ended up with 32. And with the relentless cold and constant rain, only seven people were able to finish all 6 stages. Scores were posted on Practiscore right after the match at https://practiscore.com/results/new/3accb2e1-438a-49d7-a8c5-6edf07b8eec0. They are also posted on USPSA.org. Club code for USPSA is SC02.
This match was a testament to your persistence (or stubbornness). And because of that, I will add a $5 credit to every one of you at the next match you shoot with us. I am calling it the insanity discount – only for those insane enough to come shoot in such dreadful weather.
