If anyone followed the scores from the ECC you will notice they were posted every night except one. My wife came home every night from the match and posted scores on here so anyone could follow them. She worked some days of the match at her normal job and came later in the day. On the night she didn't post was because she was at the range all day and then went and worked that night at her part time job. She ran our stat house and helped cook and feed all the shooters as well as spotted for me and painted targets. Everyone in Region II believes she is a saint. I firmly believe that someone would have posted the scores on here as my wife did from the Internationals if asked. All they had to have was a list and a user name. I understand the final tally has to be correct, just put a reminder that scores are unofficial.

Now to the lack of perfect scores at the ECC. Our range is a tough range. Enough said.

It certainly was. I am beginning to notice that my reading comprehension is not what it was 50 years ago.

I found that to be very interesting in comparing these 3 events. Thanks for taking the time to do that and post it, Ole95.

I'm starting to understand why the Internationals is no longer held in Ohio... nor does it sound like it will be back there anytime soon!

I left out a very very important Fact one that will boost Greg's
Now to the lack of perfect scores at the ECC. Our range is a tough range. Enough said.
The WCC all Targets are set in Yrds. @ the ECC all Targets are Meters all being BB, SB and FP and having shot SB in both yrds and meters that extra 9 yards on the Rams can make a Big differences
I think but not sure The INT> BB in meters ,FP and SB in yrds. ?

I did this comparing for 2 reason 1st. cause I like to 2nd to advertise the shoots that I think are IHMSA's Future
and yes I guess there or other big shoots and fun local and state matches but with out looking on the last page of the paper
we mite not know
If you really wont people to come to your shoots it mite only take A
"yall come" and we will make sure you feel Welcome that's about all Steve and Greg had to do
Talk to Jerry @ Jackson Purchase about what he's doing to promote his shoots :ymapplause: :-bd
This is just for us that CARE :)

I have shot as many ranges as about anybody still alive, and the ECC is the most challenging match I have ever participated in.

Greg has posted the dates and I have already committed to next year. I can't wait.

I wish Steve would change the dates sometime for the WCC as it always conflicts with a prairie dog trip for me.

Someday I will get out to the left coast and shoot the WCC!

Jim,

Sorry, but after 13 years the match date is set in concrete. Change the prairie dog date would be my suggestion. :D

The 2014 date is June 17-21.
