No Problem!
Hi Mike. You can tell Debbie that I said: "You did a GOOD thing".
We NEED more recruiters like you.
The very reason our club down here in Mission Texas started these E-Mail Matches was to encourage more shooters to get involved in the sport of rimfire benchrest competition. AND: To shoot with what they have in their gun rack.
Lots of shooters would like to try this game: But, the equipment needed to be competitive in any of the national rimfire benchrest associations is high dollar.
The E-Mail Matches are not affiliated with any of the national associations. We wrote up a set of rules that basically say: "Shoot What Ya Got". We don't have equipment classes. We use "performance" classification like the NRA uses: Master, Expert, Sharpshooter, Marksman, etc. Each of us shoots ourselves into a class, based on a combination of our marksmanship skills and the accuracy of our rifles (or pistols). Yup: We have guys shooting pistols. We don't give 'em no handicap either. They shoot "guts" with the rifles, and some of them have embarrassed a few rifle shooters too.
Embarrassment? Well: Ya got to have a sense of humor if you are going to shoot with us. We have some VERY good shooters in these matches. We use our real names and real home towns in our score bulletins, and we show our marksmanship skills (or lack of them) to the whole world, when we shoot in these matches.
You will be shooting with (against) some of the best, and you will really know how you stack up against them if you join us.
So: If you have a sense of humor; If you can put your ego in your hip pocket; If you want to have some real FUN: Look over the E-Mail Match rules. Then: Don't just sit there. Do Something!
