[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 88380, member: 2852"] Sounds good. How about a two day event. One day for the "pack in and shoot like it's hunting" class and one for the long range BR guys who have more gear than a small country's military. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] THat way, everyone could choose which event they wanted to participate in and then just show up on that day. Those of us that would shoot both matches would stay for both days. A factory class is the key to participation in my opinion. Most local folks in that area probably are not into the LR game as much as we are and they would feel intimidated shooting against all the high dollar stuff most of us would bring. It just wouldn't be fair and we need those guys to come so participation would be high. THe reason why we need lots of people there in my opinion is because that is the best way to make the match pay for itself. By charging everyone a small fee for every shot or for every match, we generate the funds for our own prizes while still paying those in charge of the match for their time and effort. The Kaboom shoot in Utah operates in this manner. The coordinators charge $2 per shot of which $1 goes back into the pot. Then whoever hits the explosive wins the pot. If the first day was designated the "pack in hunting day", the first half of the day could be the stock class where there could only be a limited amount of "upgrades" to the rifle. THis would not take long and allow the second half of the day to be the tricked out LR hunting guns turn. THe LR BR match would definetly take the longest amount of time with all the gear involved, so it would take the whole second day. What do you think? [/QUOTE]
