Vlad G 345 Posted March 1, 2015 Ok, winter is slowly going away so we are going to try having a match next weekend.Currently my plan is to run 4 classifiers and 3 real stages to get everyone warmed up and get some folks classification on the books. That does however mean I need 3 stages submitted so if you have ideas for a stage send it me a stage Obviously, keep an eye on the cjrpc.org for weather related news as we get closer to the match.And here is the pre-registration form: http://cjuspsa.coffeecup.com/forms/CJ_12082013_Form/ Canceled because stupid weather is stupid.

Kingsoverqueens 10 Posted March 1, 2015 I've got a stage design in my head that is inspired by this effing winter. It's called...."Miracle on Ice." lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jvheitz 5 Posted March 2, 2015 I've got a stage design in my head that is inspired by this effing winter. It's called...."Miracle on Ice." lol Let me guess.. Shooter pull starting a snow blower with strong hand while holding a shovel in weak hand. Gun unloaded in bucket of salt. 1 procedural for each grain of salt spilled outside the bucket when retrieving gun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kingsoverqueens 10 Posted March 2, 2015 Still working on how I can integrate Ice Skates into my equipment for the stage. There going to be necessary. lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kingsoverqueens 10 Posted March 2, 2015 We shot steel yesterday. First time we've shot anything in 2 months. Didn't do too bad considering it was freezing and my hands don't work well when they get cold. Then it started snowing. Bailed after 4 stages. I'm so done with winter.

Vlad G 345 Posted March 2, 2015 And my hope for better weather might be stomped out by 1-3" of snow on Thu. Anyone live close by so they can check the pits on Sat so I don't have to drive down there? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kingsoverqueens 10 Posted March 2, 2015 I think Mikeythumbs lives pretty close, and Br@yn. We can torture them into checking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pizza Bob 1,488 Posted March 5, 2015 Soooo, looking out the window this morning, and then perusing the forecast through Sunday, should I even waste my time registering? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kingsoverqueens 10 Posted March 5, 2015 Was it over when the germans bombed pearl harbor? NO! It's not over until we say it's over. its over Register, so at least this way you can say you tried. lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
louu 399 Posted March 5, 2015 Lets all get there at 8 and start shoveling Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kingsoverqueens 10 Posted March 5, 2015 Lol. Shovel... So cute. /gives louu nuggies on his head and tossels his hair/ On Sunday the ice was 6 inches thick in spots and the parking lot covered in snow and ice. Didn't see the smaller pits so if those are clear I could see pulling off a bunch of classifier stages. Otherwise we're gonna need a LOT of salt.

Kingsoverqueens 10 Posted March 5, 2015 Yeah I don't think it is shaping up the way we would want it. I don't know...Jon's plan sounds good. I mean, sleeping in with my schmoopie. Not his. I mean...I'm sure his is nice. Its just that I've got my own. Schmoopie. To sleep in with. You know. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mikeythumbs 1 Posted March 5, 2015 Um being i am 15 mins from the range and just blew 6-8 inches of snow i would have to say the range is a no go plus its still coming down Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian B 2 Posted March 5, 2015 When did everyone become so soft? 19 years ago we would shoot in the snow and just call it a lost brass match! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kingsoverqueens 10 Posted March 5, 2015 We've shot in the snow before. Vlad remembers. lol Makes scoring impossible and breaking down the match a pain in the ass, Plus, yes...lost brass. It's not fun, and for me at least, once the hands get cold and I lose dexterity, it's boarder line not safe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nik Habicht 0 Posted March 6, 2015 When did everyone become so soft? 19 years ago we would shoot in the snow and just call it a lost brass match! When we got older and wiser? I remember seeing one match at CJ and when we got there we debated whose truck thermometer was right -- the one reading 0 degrees Fahrenheit or the ones reading -1 and +1 respectively. Now I would just roll over on a morning like that..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
