Just got back from CFSAC Mass. At least two of us will be out there for your provincials. Assume you have sent details to bclineman.

Dunno if I'll be able to make that one. We'll see how I do at Match 6 on Sunday

Only a month away now. I am giddy with anticipation!

Is the registration information available yet? I'm going to need to book time off of work in order to get there, so the sooner the better.

 

[bclinehand]

Any updates Mass..........looking forward to this..........and to meeting more gunnutz!!!

I had a riot once again out there yesterday, Mass. Thanks for letting me shoot ahead on a few stages so I could make it to work on time, and even jam an hour long nap in before my shift!

Looking forward to next season already, and will even get the new g/f spooled up so she can kick my ass too.

Thanks to all those who helped out and made this a great match.

 

[Winchester3030]

Thanks Mass and Joe for a excellent match! What a great way to end the 2007 outdoor season.

Thanks to Steve and Universal for sponsorship!

Great to see the guys from BC. Hope to see you (and others) back next year.

 

[k22236821]

Despite the 17 hour drive, we had a great time!

Thanks to everyone for making us feel welcome. I hope to return next year, and I hope to see a bunch of familiar faces for the BC Provincials next year.

Here are a few of the pics that I took of my squad:

Great pics Troy. Glad you guys had a good time. Next year for sure.

Take Care

[Grizz Axxemann]

Man, I'm glad I wore that shirt! There's a frontpage shot if I ever saw one!

Got a link to the rest, Troy?

I'll be posting mine up as soon as I figure out how to get them off the damn phone

 

[bclinehand]

What Troy said X2..........Thanks to all of the shooters for making us feel welcome from the minute we arrived . 35 hours driving and the money spent for travel and lodging was well worth the price of meeting an outstanding group of shooters.
Mass. you and your crew need to give yourselves a pat on the back for a job well done.
Now for the planning of the 2008 BC Provincials ......... see you all there!!!!

 

[Grizz Axxemann]

Hopefully I can make it. I'll be using alot of vacation time this year to travel to matches and actually shoot when WELL RESTED. Sure, I had some great runs suffering from sleep deprivation, but I paid a heavy price once I got to work that night

Oh, I just noticed in a couple pics that Troy snapped (that's some kickass camera work) you can see brass flying through the air

Great shots, I want to be on your squad next year. I'd love to have some actions shots like those for my work computer.

Awesome photos Troy. I shamelessly leeched a bunch so I can put them on my facebook.
