I shot the match Friday.

14 LONG stages in one day.......... Bad choice on my part, I wish I could have spread it over two days.

A very well run match, very challenging, a lot of fun.

You can watch videos of various shooters on every different stage here:

I went.  I'll put up some video later, when I get a chance to recuperate.  (They won't be as good as some of the ones on LiveShots, but then again most of us don't shoot like Dave Sevigny either...)

Yeah, at major matches, it REALLY helps to spread your shooting out over more than one day.  Shooting 14 stages in one day (even with the weather being pretty good) is just exhausting, and it DOES make a difference by the last stage or two.  Or three or four, sometimes.  Given a choice, I strongly suggest you always go with the two-day format for Area matches.

(It is even worse on staff day when you have to finish setting up the stages, troubleshoot last minute details, and run each other while shooting the match.  Tiring!)

It was quite a match---mostly completely open targets, hardly any hard cover or no-shoot targets.  And yet, many people pulled mikes and had lots of D-hits, because each stage had just enough of a twist to it to mess with your head.  Good stuff!

Here's some commentary and video from Paul Hyland:

So the shirts were actually folded?


Looks like it was a fun match, one of these years I might be able to make one.
