We are now in the second month of competition in 2013. Some clubs shoot year round but others are just gearing up in anticipation of this year matches. During the off season most active shooters are reloading and assembling new guns in hope to compete in as many matches possible. March is just a few weeks away when most clubs become active.

The subject of Practical Hunter continuing as a accepted category is the question?

Throughout the last two years we have spent time and effort to promote this new category. At the end of this year we rewarded for participation via our industry supporters.
Our membership shooting PH and industry supporters contributed in good faith that there investments would be worth while.
There are people trying to prepare for this seasons competition. Is there a time frame as to when a decision will be made concerning the Practical Hunter being adopted or not as a sanctioned category for 2013?

If decided this year, I would say it would be at the board meeting in July at the Internationals. I suggest you make your feelings known to your region director.
