New Match Director- Alan Gliniak. Oct 1, 2016 Match Is On!!
I'm happy to announce will continue to run multi-gun matches at the Springfield Sportsman's Club, Monson, MA in 2016. We will be running a clinic for new shooters and (3) multi-gun matches this year. The dates are listed below. We had requests to try and run some Saturday matches and/or not run our matches on the same weekend as the Harvard Sportsman's Club USPSA matches so more shooters can attend and we don't pull shooters from the Harvard matches. We tried to oblige.
We will be using practiscore's match sign-up for the clinic and match registration this year. We hope to have the matches listed on practiscore.com by the end of March. We will post in this thread when we are set up and registration is open.
Dates for reference:
Clinic - Saturday May 7, 2016. We will go over rules, equipment selection, shooting / reloading techniques and rifle zero. We will shoot out to 300 yards and explain zero and hold-over. This is a FREE clinic to help new shooters get started. Pre-reg will be required and there will be a limited number of slots.
Match - Saturday June 4, 2016
Match - Sunday August 7, 2016
Match - Saturday October 1, 2016 (Match is on!)
If you haven't shot one of your multi-gun matches, we generally run 5 stages, one being a rifle stage with targets out to 300 yards.
**Couple of notes regarding our rifle stages: We use MGM steel Flash Targets, 10", 12" or C zone IPSC. We will do our best to make sure the targets are visible / contrast well against the back ground. However, if you can't see these targets at 200 and 300 yards and are shooting iron sights, you may want to think about switching to an optic. We will also be reducing the number of shooting positions on the rifle stage we have fewer shooters "time-out". As they say, if it was easy, everyone could do it
Shoot me a PM with any questions or post here and Dan S. or I will try and answer.
Shoot well,
Nick-
