As he said, some of the stages were low round count and fast to do with minimal movement, but.. our squad - mostly RGPSC shooters - did the easy ones in the morning and saved the long field courses for the afternoon. We enjoyed it all, but were glad to see the last one in the books. Several good stages - one of which required 3 hits on each target. Damon smoked this one and the rest of us were just there. You'll see a variation of this stage at the next regular match. Another involved a jail breakout and several shooting positions - one before a suspended bridge (on springs) one on the bridge and another past the bridge shooting thru a mock-up helicopter. We watched one of the GMs shoot the first 6 steel and drop-turner in about 1 second and hit the bridge with 1 step and leap completely over it to shoot the remainder of the targets thru the windows of the 'chopper. Completely eliminated a shooting position! Totally remarkable. All in all a good match. Thanks a bunch to the Montrose crowd for putting it on. RGPSC has shooters heading to Nationals in Tulsa this week. Good luck to them! Jerry Mr. Cassidy, aka Tall Fat Tire, slightly understated shooting 10 stages in 1 day - it was tough, but doable.
