  • If you please,
    This is a match I'm running and posted in a couple of forums. I thought some here might be interested also. If the mods feel this is inappropriate, please delete.



    Greetings all,
       The JMJ Farm in Bowler WI is hosting a designated marksman match May 9th and/or 10th. A two-mile, seven stage course will test you, your kit, and your preferred shooting discipline whether it is traditional American riflery  (Appleseed) or precision riflery (Sniper’s Hide). Ranges vary from 100 yards to 600+ yards and field position shooting will be required; i.e. standing, seated/kneeling, and prone. The goals of the match are to practice rifle marksmanship under some stress, debug your kit in the field, and teach a bit of American history.  Appleseeders will instantly recognize the Hits Count stage and Hide members will be familiar with the Know Your Limit sort of thing. The match will be kid and spouse friendly, having a 22LR “simulation” of each stage for them that the high power shooters engage. I may even have a class for kids/spouse teaching the Strelok app and use of a long range simulator. A $200 donation will be made to the winning discipline’s champion website and a $100 donation to the second best in appreciation for all that they do for the shooting community.

    The cost to shoot for score will be $25 but the cost to compete for score and prizes will cost $100. You may retry (even a different discipline) for $25. The top competitor in each discipline will receive their money back plus half of the fee paid by competitors in the same. A second place in each may be awarded his money back plus 10% of all like competitors if the event is well attended.

    Any questions or sign up request can be directed to JoeZ via pm or phone call or email. Thank you for your interest.

  • Sounds like a good time.  When I was first married I shot competitive High Power, used the M14, switched to the Black Gun and won my class in our state championships.  Shot at Camp Perry in the National Matches in 1999.  My oldest was 6 weeks old then, will  be 15 in a couple months.  Wife, her, and my mother in law made a Great Lakes vacation out of the trip.  Those days were fantasic, but kids later, became just too hard to make the time.  Now I'v got 3 sons, 10 down to 4, that I want to teach rifle skills to using my old equipment.  It's pretty short notice but sounds fantastic.
