Have heard back from
DeCot HyWyd donating at the Silver Level for the Match
GunGoddess.com will be back again this year as a Match Sponsor
Precision Delta will be a good sponsor sending us 4 $100 gift certificates
Do not forget that early entries received by May 15th will be entered in for a chance to win a Rock River AR15 donated by long time Match Sponsor Target Sports of Sheridan Indiana, Ron and Mary Ann Cooper.
The match falls 2 weeks before USPSA Nationals and then World Shoot is right after that. This is going to be a great 18 stage, 2 day match that is a run up to Nationals/World Shoot or for those of us that can't afford to go or get slots to those matches to come to a really big match that is affordable ($125) and only 2 days instead of a an entire week. Working on stages now but they will be a good mix of short, medium and long courses and we will be using a mix of classic and metric targets as well.
Don't wait around there are only 227 slots left to register to and squads are limited to 10 per squad. So if you and your shooting buddies are wanting to get signed up and squadded together need to get that done, the sooner the better.
2014 Indiana USPSA Championship is not until September, but you couldn't tell that by the activity we have seen on getting entries. As of right now this week alone we have received 30 entries!!

Squads are filling up quick. Get your entry in, don't forgot Target Sports of Sheridan, IN has again stepped up and donated a Rock River AR15 for early entry. Entries received before May 15th will have a chance at winning this great donation. But at this rate the match may be full before then!!
Apparently an 18 stage match for $125 two weeks before Nationals located at an easy to get to range near a big city is a great idea!!
This is going to be bigger than any Area Match this year!! We are working on stages now to give a good mix of National and World Shoot type stages so this is going to be a great run up to those events. And if you don't feel like having to spend a week in Utah or Florida this will be a great chance to shoot a BIG MATCH!!
Yes I will be making arrangements for staff.
I will be going down to shop around for hotels to get the best rates possible, but probably won't be until next month
Jeff I found a better use for all my too big shooting shirts (only 3xls..sorry)
