[QUOTE="DC, post: 857547, member: 480"] I just sent out a mass email but alot of you folks i don't have an addy on so here is whats happening: We understand that some of you cannot participate because of your location and because of that we ask that you at least visit the Wounded Warrior website and see what we are doing and why we are so passionate about this project. [url]www.woundedwarriorproject.org[/url] The following is a message from Curt. Ladies and Gentlemen, I have had some entries trickle in for our Wounded Warrior match on October 24th and 25th. Hopefully this will bring some more in, and answer some questions. I have not had a single shooter express interest in shooting on Friday. We will therefore be shooting only on Saturday and Sunday. I am gettting a ton of people telling me they are going to be there. I do not have entries however! This makes it tricky for a match director to schedule and run things. There is quite a bit of timing, scoring, and other things that go on in running a match. Here is what we are going to do. The match will between 150 and 200 rounds. It is largely steel, so if you shoot a lot, (or like me - miss a lot) bring more ammo. We will also have a "Mulligan" jar on each stage. You don't like your time, throw $5 in and get a reshoot. It is on static steel from a static position. Some of our shooters are new, with no holsters. Everything will be from low ready. We will start shooting on Saturday at 9am. You can easily complete the match in 3/4 of a day. We will start shooting again on Sunday at 9am. Show up when it is convenient to you, and bring some friends to shoot! I wanted entry forms.

We will have awards on Sunday afternoon when the last shooter is done. And some fun things. We are raffling off a Glock certificate and a XD 9mm. Tickets will be $5 each.
