Hello Gunnutz
I am excited to announce that CDTSA will be making a few changes to it steel challenge match as well as offering a few 8 stages matches for this year.
The matches hosted by CDTSA and commonly referred to as "Steel Challenge" are "outlaw" matches not officially sanctioned by the Steel Challenge Shooting Association and not bound by their rules. But we will follow there rules for the most part with a few changes. This is a for fun Match. Courses of fire require hits on 5 steel targets including a "stop" plate which ends the course of fire. You will shoot multiple passes on a stage. Your score is based on time to complete the stage plus any penalties. Most Steel shooting courses of fire require little or no movement. Penalties are 3 seconds for a missed target. Shooter may take as many shoots required to hit a target but you may not go back to hit a missed target after the stop plate has been hit. The CDTSA will hold two types of matches. One will be a one stage weekly event held at the Sheppard range. The other will be a 8 stage match held at the Milo range.
Sheppard weekly match
The matches start on April 13 and end on September 21. They are on every Thursdays starting at 5pm weather permitting. One of the 8 stages or a random stages will be setup. Shooters can compete in a maximum of two Divisions. Ten strings are shot per division. The Ten strings will be shot in 2 separate attempts of 5 strings each. The cost is $5 for members and $15 for guest.
Milo 8 stage match
A few large matches will be scheduled at Milo. Set up and Registration will start at 8am with shooting commencing at 9am. Four stages will be set up in separate bays. Once everyone has completed the first four stages we will stop for a lunch break. After the break we will set up the final 4 stage and finish the match. The 8 stage set up will be the common steel challenge match stages or random ones. They May be modified to fit in the bays as needed. 5 strings are shot per stage. The match should be finished around 2-3pm. The cost is $10 for members and $20 for guest. Shooters can compete in a maximum of 2 Divisions.
