Re: Another NCAA rifle program ends

They have laid out some good excuses to end the rifle program. Just the same I have a hard time believing that it doesn't have more to do with politics. This is the only supported team sport at the school that wasn't allowed to sell team items such as t-shirts in the school store. What other sport i...

Re: Idaho shooting?

Well, we don't have anything scheduled right now but I could probably come up with a small group that would be willing to at least try and whoop up on you. I would hate for you to travel thru and not get a chance to shoot.
You can PM me with details and contact info.

Re: 2017-2018 USAS JOs now running by ISSF rules

Joel, This is not a mixed team qualification match. This is lining up boy-girl and firing 40 shots individually. At the end USAS form teams for a mock mixed team final. Since the selection portion of the competition is complete it's a meaningless day. They could at least make it more fun for the sho...

They don't send teams for non-Olympic events. No team - no selection.

Re: 5 Week Online Shooting League - Like a Postal Match

I believe that the PL-15 is the an incorrect target. The PL-14 fits the ratio of ten ring diameter to distance when compared to the NRA targets listed in the match rules.
It doesn't really matter much to me but you might want to check it yourself before you decide.

Thank you very much. The update solved the problem I had trying to use a blue tooth speaker. I also really appreciate you adding the follow thru reminder feature.

Re: 25m Pistol Timer (new Android app with shot detection)

ToTheZeroth, What a great app. My family has enjoyed using it. The problem that I have is that I would like to have the sounds played thru a blue tooth speaker so that it can act as the RO for a few of us shooting together. It won't work with my phone at all (android razor). It almost works with my ...

Re: USA Shooting Not Funding Competitors?

I think it was a better use of funds to send the juniors to the World Championships where they could earn MQS for Rio and even hope to win a quota. If they don't have MQS prior to the Olympic selection they can't shoot in the final. But I admit at that at the time I didn't understand why they wouldn...

Re: USA Shooting Not Funding Competitors?

I believe that when he said young he meant juniors. Teams of various sizes have been sent to: Bavarian Air Gun Championships in '13, '14,'15, Shooting Hopes '13, Junior Cup Suhl 2014, World Championships Spain 2014. Team sizes have been from 2 to about 20 juniors. I may be wrong about some of these ...

David,
My apology. I thought you were wondering if math was done differently in the US. Which I thought was a bit sarcastic and unusual for you. Now I see I misread your comment.
I am glad that Brian got his question answered.

To the OP's defense - I would guess he fired 3 shots per bull on four bull targets. So since he fired 12 shot strings he didn't think about 10 shot strings. Not bad math just inexperience.

Does "athlete ranking" mean for awards? In the past it hasn't. Actually in the past this ranking system is seldom shown. Awards are based on the finals match and members selected by way of this system are listed but not ranked. It can, and most likely will, be argued both ways. I suggest w...

I heard that the cocking lever on Isakov's pistol broke during the elimination. He had a 489 after 51 shots. That is an outstanding average. I can hardly imagine how disappointing that would be. Any of them can fail but you hate to see that happen to anybody especially when they are smokin' 'em like...
