Is there any potential for USPSA matches at Ike's (Lincoln)?

<< < (2/2)

OnTheFly:
Thanks bkoenig for the reply.  I sincerely appreciate the volunteer work that you and the rest of the board members do for all of us at Ike's.  I especially appreciate your efforts to bring true action matches to the range.  I know there are hurdles that the board has to clear before this can become a reality. 

When the time comes, and if you don't already have someone chosen to run USPSA pistol matches, Sean and I would be happy to provide whatever information we can to make this thing happen.

I believe it will only strengthen the membership and supplement the revenue stream.

I have heard the same about getting SASS into the Ikes (and similar ranges) Once a month a bunch of "Cowboys and Outlaws" (who in real life come from all walks) would descend upon the range and shoot low speed cartridges at steel targets.  I have heard Steel is a four letter word there.
Don't get me wrong- it's a nice enough range, but I think alot of improvements could be afforded if they rode the wave of these "Fads".  The shoot I went to in Texas was literally in the ranch owner's back yard, and was TOP NOTCH and was funded entirely by himself and the local "posse" including income from entrance fees.

Oh yeah NEBull!  I forgot to reply...We don't want your kind around the Ike's.  I hear all you guys want to do is shoot and start fights in the saloon, or maybe it is start fights in the saloon and then shoot.  :laugh:

If your group can convince this club of doing this type of match it would be an accomplishment well done.

Im not calling anyone a fudd but i would be down with some action shooting near lincoln.  The indoor ranges are getting into it but it is not as much fun as getting outside and enjoying a fantatic day.

I am going yo get up to omaha and shoot some 3gun next summer if i have tell my wife i am working for a day!  ;D
