I will check with Range Control next week and make sure, then I will announce a date. I am leaning towards the October date as there is lees chance of us needing to shoot the match from a canoe........

Okay, October 11th will be our day for the match. Sorry to those that wanted November. So, a couple things of note.
1. I intend on trying to scrounge up markers as this will make my life, Paul's life and your lives easier. I will see what it is going to cost and I will post it to this thread.
2. Due to this being a one day affair this is how it is going to work for zeroing.
- Relays 1 and 2 will come to the mound together at each yardage, the 4 foot backer target will appear with two 1" grid targets, you get to fire two rounds, no more than two rounds.
- The target will then be dropped and indicators will be put in and will be displayed.
- The RSO will then clear your rifle and you will leave the line knowing what and where you need to adjust your scope to.
- You will then make the necessary scope correction off the mound while 3 and 4 are firing and be ready for your next stage.
- Relays 3 and 4 will come to the mound together at following relay 1 and 2 at each yardage, the 4 foot backer target will appear with two 1" grid targets, you get to fire two rounds, no more than two rounds.
- The target will then be dropped and indicators will be put in and will be displayed.
- The RSO will then clear your rifle and you will leave the line knowing what and where you need to adjust your scope to.
- You will then make the necessary scope correction off the mound and be ready for your next stage.
- Relay 1 and 2 will come to the mound with 1 shooting and 2 spotting and the range will go hot for that stage.

ugg..I guess I better get out and start shooting again
should be fun!
This sport is like golf - the best way to practice is to get out there and do it... which is just what my relationship needs - another version of golf...
FYI -
Anyone on the mainland may want to reserve a spot on the ferry ASAP, that's thanksgiving weekend and they will sell out. Horseshoe Bay Friday at 3:10 is already sold out.
I won't have room to take a person in my car, but if someone needs me to take their rifle and ammo for them (because the ferry won't let you carry one if you walk on) I can take it in the car for you.

So I have no partner for this match, but would love to come out and shoot. Any one else out there looking for a partner?
Or should I just mail in the entry and see what happens?

I am pretty sure they will partner you up with someone when you get there - I am pretty sure there are a few people going without partners - myself included.
