October FunShoot results

Here they be.  Thanks again for yet another fun day, and all the work you all did. We at York are truly blessed with the quality of folks that hang out with us.  The FunShoot is shutdown until January, but fear not, there is one more Action shoot in a few weeks.

Cheers.

Thank you fun shooters!

All you Fun Shooters, I hope you had a great time today at Gary's Halloween extravaganza, and I want to thank you for giving us some of your time to prepare for the impending disaster.  If Sandy decides to flood us I think we are as ready as we can be.   I feel like we'll be pretty safe with anything up to 3 feet of water over the banks, and it is rare for that to happen, though possible.  I know we wouldn't be this ready without you.

I had a lot of fun today (I always find fun shoots relaxing) and thoroughly enjoyed talking to a lot of you.  I had two topics come up quite often and thought I might address them here:

1. What do I have to do to join?  Joining Izaak Walton is easy.  We need you to fill out an application available at http://yorkiwla.org/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/iwlaapp6-2012.pdf  then attend an orientation where we show potential members around the club and show them what we have to offer, and discuss the rules.  We have one scheduled every month, and can do special orientations if needed.  Then submit your application and a check.  We vote on your application at the board meeting on the first Tuesday of the month, and by the 3rd Tuesday you're in.  We're always looking for new members.  Feel free to email me at hkbrt@verizon.net if you have more questions.

2. How do I get more involved with the pistol committee?  The pistol committee is actually a fairly active committee and we communicate a lot by email.  Just email me and tell me to put you on the "pistol committee list" and you're in.  You'll receive emails about our work details, set ups, and shoots.  I really don't care if you're a Izaak Walton member or not.  If you want to work come do it. If you want to shoot with us you can be one of our guests.  That being said, membership has it's privileges.  Again, email me if you havbe more questions.

We look forward to seeing you all again next year, and having another great Fun Shoot season in 2013.  I'm sure Gary will come up with even more great ideas, but I know he's always open to suggestions.  Don't hesistate to email him with your thoughts.

The future of action shooting at York

I received an email today asking if we were really giving up USPSA shooting at York Izaak Walton.  This is the reply I sent:

"Yes, it does mean the end of USPSA at York Izaak Walton.

We have decided that USPSA is no longer representative of our needs. We have decided to continue action shooting, with pistols, as well as multi-gun, in a manner very similar to USPSA but without their rules or scoring system. The rules of USPSA are very restrictive and change so often that we can't keep them straight. Their scoring system is unnecessarily complicated and time consuming. By dropping USPSA we will also be saving the club a great deal of money on the activity fees we paid to USPSA. In 2011 it was about $2000.00. Set up for non-USPSA matches is infinitely easier and faster.

Action shooting is stronger than ever at York and it will easier to set up and more fun to shoot without USPSA. We will be using a form of IMGA rules and Time plus scoring. We ran a beta test last at month's match and it was universally approved. Without USPSA we will have more variety of targets to choose from and more leeway in designing courses of fire. Safety will remain our foremost concern, and keeping action shooting enjoyable for both shooters and our staff will be second.

All of your current equipment will remain competitive and the divisions are so similar to those of USPSA that you won't have to change anything.

November 11th will be our last USPSA match and it will be a 7 stage match with 6 classifiers, so if your classification matters to you we will provide one last opportunity."

 

This is not an invitation to sign up.  Expect that around November 4th.

Ocktorba FunShoot

York IWLA presents our Monthly FunShoot, this Saturday, the 27th of October.

Consisting of around 100 targets, this shoot will be open to all standard caliber handguns and carbines, with 2 hybrid classes for handgun/shotgun (7 1/2 shot or smaller, 4 slugs minimum), or handgun/carbine.

This month we honor Halloween. Be prepared for ghostees and goblins, spiders and spooks.  We will have 6-7 stages including spooky steel, a little USPSA style monster action, gallery of not so much stuff, choose your own clays (if you dare), terror on the bullseye stage, and (if mother nature cooperates) bobbing for pumpkins.

There will be 3 scoring classes:
Points, where you will be scored by total points in an exact round count count,
Timed, where the fastet gun to smash all targets wins,
IDC, a non scored option where you do pretty much what you want, as long as you are safe, within reason, and under the guidance of your squad Range Officer.

The weather is looking reasonable for the weekend, so lets say final setup and check in start at 7:30, shooter brief about 8:30 and shooting 'round 8:45.

Cost is $15 adults, $5 for under 18.  OH! And if you show up in costume (firearm safe, even a witches hat alone will do, and I don't care if you are your kids worst nightmare, dressing up as yourself won't make it past the panel of judges...), you get $5 off the price of admission, and a small and totally insignificant prize will go to the best costume.  

Preregister now at yorksignup@gmail.com.  We will only be accepting 50 shooters max.

Remember, York is a cold range, please have all firearms unloaded and secured when you arrive at the range, including CC permit holders.  Handle firearms only after you register, and only at the safe tables or under direction of a range officer.

See you all Saturday

Preliminary Shotgun Pistol Results

I started on the smallest set first.  Look them over.  I will send them all to Rob to be put on the website in as soon as I work through all of the results.

I lumped everyone who was not Open into TacOps, because there really is no difference in shotgun except for Open.  Next year we will have to have a Pump division.  I know a couple people used them.  In fact Bernie Rhee was 4th in TacOps using a pump.  He really tore stage 2 up.
