The shot timer isn't (shouldn't necessarily?) be about adding stress, but to keep it moving. Otherwise you'll find people waiting out wind forever, analyzing every shot placement, and telling stories of the 1985 Nationals while occupying the lane.

Daystate Huntsman regulated in .177 is what you need if you dont want a higher cost 'specialty' FT competitive rig like a Thomas. It's not going to kill coyotes, but is a fine ratter.

thanks for an awesome inaugural season at Atglen. this was a good course on a beautiful day.

Thanks for a fun FT season at Delco this year! Cant wait to see the 'new' forest course next year

How many drivers do you think there would be if there were no local auto racing areas you could get into with a barely tuned up road car and work your way through? FT doesnt have that. And there's plenty of reasons why you don't pull up to a local track in a $10m NASCAR rig. But since you...

what is the acceptable level of 'suck' one can reasonably take while thinking it's worth continuing? as far as I know, this game started with the kind of tech AirNGasMan posted....the kind of basic equipment that anyone could buy and wasn't particularly special, with big ol' 1.5"/40mm KZ sizes...

You know you're free to drop the 80x scope and butt hook and just shoot Hunter? Making Hunter Even easier with more gear and telling wftf, piston, and everyone else to suck it up because you'll need a harder course says maybe you're the issue, not literally every other class? If Hunter already...

in that way it makes a little sense. but making it harder (holover/rangefinding) and then adding in more tech to hunter means people will be getting higher scores. there will be more cleaned courses and shootoffs. when enough people clean lanes, and you cant separate 3 people with perfect...

Think about how many times you told ME what I'm going to do, and how zero times you suggested what people who want to buy more advantages will have to do. Holdover and taping over range markings is much less beginner friendly than a perfect rangefinder.

no, they'll dominate EVENTS. and when there's 3 perfect scores/match - someone's going to demand higher T courses (already said upthread). basically tell anyone who doesn't have the fancy rig that they should be happy shooting 33% as this games is only for the big boys with big toys.

I wouldn't call eyeball ranging a 3/8" kz beginner friendly...

by making it harder for people with budget guns to play the game? eliminating range marks and having to hope you eye ranged ok? i'm sure that will work out REAL well then the 80x scopers are clearing courses and the KZs get smaller and smaller. no wonder new people wouldn't want to come play...

Lol, sure you got the right person? My 23 was not a dropout score but a rough day lol

Thanks for hosting a fun match in the woods. The wind and small kz hurt me, but Laura didn't have as much trouble.

i dont, this will be our first time attending. please feel free to PM me for an email address to get on your list.
