Ibs benchrest full#
I like having factory class shooters at our Registered matches, many shooters start off in factory class, some stay there, some move on to full out BR rigs. Maybe after watching he'll see BR is not for him. Maybe next month he'll come back with his Varmint rig.
If a guy wants to see what BR is about and his gun is in no way BR invite him to stay and Watch the match, maybe after the match let him shoot your rifle. Hell no! We all need to be reasonable, including the new guy. Is that to say we need to open up the requirements at our matches to the point that a guy is gunna sit next to me with a 458 Socom ar-15 spitting hot brass down the back of my shirt and his flashider/muzzle break is blowing my gun off the bench. Without new shooters this sport will crumble. For that reason we need new shooters (the replacements).
Many of those shooters we will not see again. We have lost a lot of shooters in the last few years, some to death, some to the economy, some to the fact that this sport has parts of it that are so competitive that is no longer a fun weekend away. Some certainly are not selling a worthy product to improve accuracy. Some manufacturers are playing on some hunters weakness' of not having sufficient range time. Goodgrouper has a good point on manufacturing. Let them choose their goals, the serious ones will grow, the others will move on. With an entry level class some promotion and mentoring, I think that would gain some interrest and membership. Its all in what your goals are and how much you can spend. How much does it cost for a good set of golf clubs and a membership ? Maybe a SSoy win is far from my grasp due to money, but I'll sure give the State Championships a run for it as long as I can. I really dont see cost being a total limiting factor. I learned at my first match a win was going to be hard faught in this game. Why does shotgunning get air time, because the targets move? I'm not sure. I see growth as getting out some of what we do to the shooting world and into view. It will likely include an adult with a will to compete and improve. I aslo dont think we will pull in alot of young shooters on their own. Nor is that what the survey suggests, I hope. I dont see a national campaign to add thousands. I have found it to be the exception, but I have encountered it. I guess my point here is if the competitor next to the new youth is not willing to help it can sour a new shooter on the sport. If they shoot a good group they want me to know right away! My boys and I have learned to use hand signals for most of our comunication.
For the most part they are self suficiant unless a cease fire is called and they spill the powder or other mechanical issue comes up durring the match. For the most part there is a good group of guys that volunteer to help me one on one side to work with one and I'll work with the youngest on the other. I've been told I cant talk to them during a match because I'm bothering a person next to me. I have been protested by some for helping my boys with a problem during a match. I have learned that it is important where and who I sit next to, if possible I'll take an end bench. Bruce Lachapell also gives a Top Junior Certificate they both compete to get! Allie Got me into a bolt gun for them I could afford and Lee has given them trophys for the winner between the two of them at Dunhams Bay. It's matches like this that will keep him shooting even after he finds Girls!Īllie and Lee Euber have also been very instrumental in keeping them shooting. He still has the targets on the wall he finished with a 50-2x on his last target. When the sent him the standings they included a sony walkman, which has never left his room, so no one breaks it. Three years ago at Canasota NY score nationals they made a big deal out of Mark then age 9 competing, it was his first big match he shot a 240-5X. Even a 22RF will kill, every firearm needs to be taught to be handled the same way. A muzzle down pointed range is a muzzle pointed down range and an empty, bolt out gun, is the only gun pointed in any other direction. My boys are just as capable of handling any rifle as any other competitor, and in some cases have shot a loaned 30BR as good or better than the owner.
