Stages 1 &2: 5 – targets
Shooting stages will be a set course with 5 shooting stations per stage. Contestants will begin and end each stage in the same manor (see section 1 & 3). Targets will be visible to contestants in some form while inside the station box. The contestant is to find the best position inside the station box to make his/her shot. Two (2) shots per station is the limit any other shots or lack of shots will result in a time penalty. Shooting with out both feet inside the station box will result in a penalty.
-While moving from station to station the contestant has the option to run or fast walk from station to station.
-If the contestant chooses to run, he/she must holster and secure the weapon before starting movement.
-If the contestant chooses to move with the weapon drawn, he/she must carry the weapon at the low ready position, both hands on weapon, and move at a quick walk.
-If the contestant decided to transition into a run the contestant must come to a complete stop, holster and secure the weapon.
-If the contestant is having trouble finding the correct shooting position the range supervisor can assist at the expense of a 10 second penalty.

Good luck and happy shooting – Panhandle Airsoft



As you may notice this is an Evike sponsored event so we may have some stuff to give away!

been thinking of something like this for our field keep us posted

if things hold out i'll be heading down

sounds good! hope to see you out there!

Well, what can I say the bottom fell out!!! However, with the weather idiot calling for 70% chance of rain, it never sprinkled. I can honestly say that I was totally disgusted at the response I got at doing a competition. Seems like every one wasn’t ready to compete, didn't have the up they wanted, But after forcing a few people to participate, I am very happy to report that everyone had a blast.

Well, taking some advice from the ISPC (thanks for answering my email) We set up a course that made shooters think. (And believe me when you see someone (most everyone) run the course twice and still forget were targets are) You know that they are going to have a great time. The course was a blast to admin and everyone had a great time. I hope to post some pics later, a special thanks to the Captain and his friend for taking their time to come out a do a proper photo shoot of the event. You can check those out on the SEA site.

I am looking forward to having another FUN competition soon. Looking at a two gun challenge for late summer early fall. Hope to see you all out on the field, soon!!!

Thanks to: Panhandle Airsoft, 77 Extreme Paintball, Evike.com, and SEA for the support and donations.

wish i could of been there but i had to work all day in mobile and moss point ms,

i must admit i didn't want to drive 3 hours only to find that its going to rain out the fun then drive home , i know you can have fun in the rain but if i go out of town i want all i can get out of it

I can understand that. We drove to a game out of town about 6 hours away only to have it rain the entire time we were there. Not all that fun when the other team won't play in the rain (though we did). At real IPSC or IDPA competitions they will continue competing. One I went to we kept going until the tornado sirens started wailing.
