I wonder how many patches it took to restore the paper target at the Barrie 3 gun that you nailed...with bird shot![]()

Also, uninformed. At matches where the squad which is shooting is expected to patch, I have no doubt the match sponsors patch. FreedomVentures is talking about matches where the shooter shoots on "X" days, and patches/works on "Y" days.
The key word is "works". Matches need workers to run. Maches need money to run. Money is the remuneration for labor. Therefore, the donation of money is the equivalent of match labor, at some floor amount.

You sir, have the muscle tone of a jelly fish!!!!![]()

Yes I am uninformed as I was talking about events where the shooters are expected to patch. I have also been an event where shooters were not expected to patch yet there where insufficiant patchers so I patched (am I your hero yet?)
Apparently there is not enough $$$$$$ from the sponsors at EOHC for this match to proceed 'cause they can't buy enough voulonteers (labor) to "work" Eh! So therefore sponsors should sponsor more $$$$$ so there is more "match labor". This seems to be a simple enough equation. What did they teach you in grade 3?

Unless you're a member of EOHC I'll thank you to not comment on events you have absolutely nothing to do with.
If you are a member then I should have at least received an email from you telling me that you could not come out and set up the match.
Either way, the comments you made above place the club in an unfavourable light.![]()
At this point you have two options: you can apologize for your poor remarks aginst the club (and by extension its executive...who work DAMN hard and without whom there would be no mathces all all) and everything will be fine ***OR*** you can dig in and be bullheaded like a good number of people already have.....
Whatever you choose, rest assured that I'll remember your decision the next time you're looking for a slot at a match....
doc25 said:Sorry dr. nick but my comments were answers to Barteledan and bear no reflection on your club. I will pm you with my name so you can slot me accordingly.
If this type of strongarm tactic makes you feel better so be it.
I was not trying to talk dirt against your club, you will see this if you read my earlier posts and I agree with most of what you say including Barteledan and was responding to a personal attack.
Please do not take this in any way as an apology it is just the facts.
Thanks for listening.
