    We have had that be done in the past. It does complicate things a bit.

    If it would be possible I would like to try 2 divisions at the Feb 12th Classifier. I am having a hard time seeing how that would be logistically done.
    Coach, would it be advisable to sign up for a second division or would you rather not deal with the complications of making it work? Or do you plan to do another special classifier yet this spring?

    We can give two a try. Perhaps we know what we are doing more than last time.

    Sounds good I will get signed up for a second classification. I will be using a CR speed belts, so it is just a matter of changing to belt and gunning up.

    PS: I thought you did a fantastic job of figuring out 6 stages last time.

    All signed up for Two classes. Limited 10 and revolver.

    Thank you for allowing this, it will be interesting to see how the logistics will work.

    I shot 2 at the last one.. it wasn't too bad. Just get there early enough to sign up when the boards open and you can stagger your runs sufficiently.

    Thanks for the advise, I will get there early and stagger my first gun in the first 1/3 of the list and then sign up for my second gun near the bottom of the of the group. Do you think that would flow well enough?

    How long did the last classifier match run? Never been to Parabellum, curious about how matches are run.

    We were out of there by around 11:00. The match flows really well and they run 3 shooters at the same time. Coach and his RO's do an amazing job of figuring out the timing and logistics of these matches. They are a lot of fun!!!

    I hung the targets on sticks tonight for five of the six stages. Targets painted up. As ready as we can be at this time.

    Does the classifier match go towards point series?
    No. The original 10 winter matches are all that count. Classifiers draw people so much better I was worried about Point Series people getting into the match. There has been enough trouble with that already.

    No worries. Just wondering if i needed to shoot production vs. Single stack. Not that it matters, but my SS scores arent showing in the point series
