3 man 3 gun stages
The stages for our April 3rd 3M3G are available now. Use them wisely to come up with a strategy for each stage before match day. Each team may make it's own shooter assignments this match (no cards), but to keep things interesting every shooter will have to use both pistol and shotgun once each minimum, and rifle at least twice. This will cut down on specialization and ensure each team member has a fairly complete set of skills.
Link to stages
As of today there are still plenty of slots available for this match, though the apps are coming in regularly. I also have one team in need of a third member. Email me at hkbrt@verizon.net if you would like me to contact them.

Stake shoot
Great weather, great comraderie, and a great waste of ammunition. I think that pretty well sums up today. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves as we took on the 2x4 army. 30 people showed up and we shot thousands of rounds as we worked our way through a double elimination bracket tournament where 4 man teams went head to head against each other to break their board in half with pistol fire before the oppostion.
In about an hour it came down to two teams. Bernie, Ben, Logan, and Robert out of the losers bracket versus Brian, Jim, Greg, and Howard. The challengers who had fought through the losers bracket bested the winners bracket champs not once, but twice to claim the victory.
Here is a freak photo of one of the stakes falling to the ground still in mid air. Notice the snow being kicked up to the right side of the photo where the bullets were impacting after passing through the other teams stake.

PA state steel challenge
The application for the PA State Steel Challenge is now available at http://yorkiwlaipsc.com/forms/PA_State_Steel_Challenge_2011.pdf This will be the 3rd year we've held this match and it known for going smoothly and paying well. The dates for this year's PASSC will be July 9th and 10th. The two changes we will make this year include using pit 8 instead of having 2 stages on the rifle range, and paying classes within each division (based on participation). Both should add value to the match, but the entry fee remains the same.
We will assign shooters classes based on USPSA class, and performance at this and past Steel Challenge matches at York. All shooters will be assigned a classification which allows them a chance to win additional cash prizes. We will continue to pay division winners as well. We will pay out 50%, so there will likely be $4000.00 or more up for grabs.

Spring 3 man 3 gun
We finally got a date set for the Spring 3 man 3 gun. It's not perfect (there's a conflict with Fredericksburg's monthly USPSA match) but it's the best we could do. There's just so much going on at York Izaak Walton in the spring.
That date will be Sunday, April 3rd. Applications are available at http://yorkiwlaipsc.com/forms/York_3m_3gun_Spr2011.pdf and you can type right onto the pdf. Then just print it and mail it and your check as instructed on the form. Slots will be extremely limited for this match and we expect it to fill quickly. Don't hesitate to get your team together and get your stuf in the mail.
We are also going to publish the stages ahead of time to allow you to strategize if you like. They should be up in a day or two.
This match will be a great warm-up for Topton's 3 man 3 gun in June. I hear there are still a couple slots left for that, but you better hurry.

If you should be getting invites from one or both of us but didn't receive one contact whichever of us is appropriate and let us know. Lists get currupted, people change email addresses, we make mistakes, all kinds of things can happen just notify us and we'll fix it.
