Greg, I think you would find a match held there well attended. How many in Region 1,2,3 did not go to OKC this year, or dont plan to go to Stockton in 2013, or to Raton NM in 2014 due to the distance ? It is 900mi each way for anyone in the Atlanta Ga area to attend OKC. Going on that, if a match is held at your range wouldnt it compete directly with attendance at the International Match ? rp

Richard the short answer is I don't know if it would compete against the Internationals. I would rather a shooter attend the Internationals than my match. In 2010 as far as I know I was the only attendee from Ky at TUSCO in Oh. Those who want to attend the Internationals will. You bring up a valid point Richard it would have to be held during a warm month. Sometime between May and September. My thought is to run it somewhat like Aarne did his Shoot the Sun match in Florida. Pay one price and have just a big ole match.
