What is UP with South Central Gun Club Matches??????

[churchmouse]

Since everyone just seems to wanna stroke everyone off and not actually look at the issue of match attendance sucking and not offering reasons other than their own ego...

There is another reason why match attendance at your club is down, soon it’ll end up dead.

But, I’ll watch as Jeff Jones thinks he is hot **** trying to white knight one of the clubs biggest issues instead of addressing it

Can you not read the in thread I posted to stand down. That is a great way to get points. Ignoring staff.

1 more negative post in this thread and time outs will be issued.

Try me today. Please.

Do I have to close the thread to get the kids to stop.

Not playing with this anymore. If you like it here respect it. If not then just do not post.
I asked 2 times. And yes I will remove you from the forum.

Now you have time to ponder your idiotic response.

In all honesty, I admit that Mom and I both think I am really something.

Other thing, that has been talked about many times before, the biggest liability I know of for the sport is that we have only a precious few people who devote a crazy amount of time to keeping clubs shooting.
What keeps folks like Max and Gary (orpci) and Mr.Sweetness (WVPPS) going is something I have not figured out.

Try to bring new shooters into the sport. I’ve been competing for about 6 months and I wish I would have done it years ago. It will increase the amount of set up/ stage design help, bring in more money, and bring in new ideas.

Go to all the gun stores within half an hour of the range and ask to put up fliers (competitors buy more guns & ammo, the club and the gun store win). Host new competitor classes/matches. RVB hosted one that was amazingly helpful when I was just starting. USPSA sells itself, the hard part is getting people to their first match.

Thanks all. I'm out. I never heard much about steel challenge numbers which is all I'm interested in. It appears the focus of this club is USPSA.

Maybe I'll wander up to MCFG some Friday. I did that once and they seemed to be alright.

Carry on!

The weather was perfect for today's match. A good time was had by all.

I'm Match director of Steel Challenge at South Central. We are recently affilated this year, and trying to build attendance and buy more steel to have more stages. Would really appreciate any and all who would come shoot our match. There will always be atleast 4 SCSA stages.

If it weren’t such a haul, I’d be there. I miss my SCGC family! Misfits too ...

Steel Challenge is actually something we would like to see grow at SCGC. The hard part is finding a couple very dedicated ROs to champion the events. Being a Match Director takes dedication and at SCGC we consider MDs to be Club leadership. I think we have now found those people. Steel Challenge will be the second Saturday of the month.

I will also take a minute to point out the SCGC is a strong supporter of youth programs such as 4H shooting sports in Jackson County and the SASP. We have hosted the SASP IN State match and soon the regional match. SCGC is a strong supporter of law enforcement training with the counties officers being members. USPSA is only one part of who and what we are, I am proud to be a part of this organization.

As as far as the club dying, not on my watch. I assure you SCGC is alive and doing very well.

I do not know Chris Chance. I just looked and he is not a member of our club. If he is a thief then I doubt he will be voted in as a member. SCGC is a private organization. If one of our members or a guest breaks a club rule I have and will address the issue. USPSA matches are another matter. If a person is a member of USPSA or otherwise legally able to be in possession of firearms and shoot safely their personal business is just that. If they break a USPSA rule then I leave it to the discretion of the MD.

Well Said!!!!

I second this.

 

[churchmouse]

By request from people in authority at the club I am closing this thread.

I am bringing this back to the top for 1 reason.
The person being called out as a thief is in fact just that.

He has done his act right here in Ingo. I have had direct interactions with him as have other members. He was removed from the forum.
Now, the idea that he is the sole reason for attendance issues is beyond idiotic. I have done my research and will not agree to this being the sole issue. Maybe a handful of people and understandably so.
