His shoulder is on the ground. Try getting into that position without part of your shoulder not on the ground... it's not easy. Besides- he's got huge shoulders!

Thanks for the aid my friend. Didn't see "back of your shoulder" in the write-up, we assumed side of your shoulder worked.
Probably why I don't shoot it!![[rolleyes]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/042.gif "Roll Eyes [rolleyes]")
Just like lurking in the IDPA threads??? You don't see me on the SASS or high power threads.
A bunch of top USPSA shooters have been joining the mix lately and have had a great time... check out the results and you'll see. Without getting into any IDPA/USPSA crap- good trigger time is good trigger time. Small plates near no shoots, poppers, awkward shooting positions.... all good for getting better.+1.
From Stage Procedure:
...Start with your back at P1 parallel to targets with loaded firearm on ground pointed down range. On the start signal retrieve your firearm and with at least 1 shoulder touching the ground, engage...
Having your shoulder on the ground is much more stable than lifted off the ground. If you look at his feet you'll see three solid points of contact with the ground, his two feet and his shoulder. If you lift your shoulders off the ground your three points are your waist and feet - with your upper body swaying in the wind.

Have done small plate near no shoots with rifle and shotgun, awkward shooting positions too. Not to mention shooting in a cave. We all have our vices, Dave. Mine leans toward mutiple guns in a stage.
Great pictures pdogg77 , I ( BOB ) shot with you on Friday I didn't do great to say the least but had a blast with you guys , thanks for the pictures nice job, really a good group of guys lots of laughs.

Thanks for a fantastic match guys. The stages were outright creative, the weather was something I looked forward to shoot in for once, and the ROs were AWESOME! You guys make me want to shoot IDPA again! Can we have more knife stages next time (I loved stabbing that sucker)? Or maybe sidekick someone's head before shooting (because I might get an advantage at once cause I'm flexible)? Lying down stages are cool too. I love how we did things I would never think of practicing beforehand, it puts the fun into the matches.
Here's my video...I was a snail a few times but hey, I didn't shoot any innocent people!

I know exactly what those procedurals are for. Like Lugnut, I stayed to the left in that hallway.

I took a couple iPhone videos of Bill T. shooting the match with his Model 66:
Bill had reduced the charge in his reloads, since the SSR power factor was lowered. Watch what happens on his first shot on the steel popper on the right. I didn't get a video of his reshoot.

If anyone has photos from stages 1 & 2 or 3 & 4 and are willing to share, please send them to me at [email protected]. I am lacking in some good pictures of these stages for the match report. Thanks for your help.

Great match report. Only, for us revolver shooters, that picture of stage 5 was better as the first half of the stage, not the last half.
Stage 7 was awesome, btw. I liked the fact that you could shoot it different ways. I stayed to the left, like in your picture, so I could clear out all the targets on the left and only make one transition then to the left (rather than left, right, left).
