World Match

Post by xp-100 »

I would like to take this time to thank each and every one who attended the 2018 World Championship Match. I truly hope everyone enjoyed themselves and hope to see each and everyone this next year. Also want to thank Jackie Brown for running the match and Jim Fields for hosting the match. I want to thank everyone that took part in helping with the work load that is involved setting the match up and in order. I also would like to sent a personal thank you for the out of country competitors who made an effort to be there. I know it takes allot of planning on their part to be part of the competition. I truly hope everyone had a safe trip back to their home town and country.

An untold amount of work goes into these events. Hats off to Jim Fields, Dave Stone, Jim Meyers, Jackie Brown, Dan Contrell for their lions share of the work. Behind the scenes were Joe Cullison doing registration times, Ray Utter checking guns, "Stathouse Richard" entering scores, Rob York for all the misc that inevitably needs done. Many thanks to the whole crew for another job well done. The fan in front of the RO bench was a welcome addition. The extended stathouse made it comfortable for shooters to retreat from the heat and heat lunch or just hang out when the heat got too much for them. Well done to all!!

Thank you Rich, as always, extremely well said.
This is an incredible event and the people make it all worth while.
If anyone has never been to a World Championship, the time has come. It is worth every effort, the more the merrier and as I hope everyone knows...... Handgun Silhouette has the most helpful, generous and gracious shooters of any shooting sport I have ever seen.
To hang out with and learn from the best in the world, the legends and a bunch of great folks is beyond compare.

Please plan to attend next year and thanks to all of those that come and those that make it happen.
