First match!

Tim, totally agree.
Shot 2 years before my first FTR match. Showed up and introduced myself to everyone and mentioned was my first match. Everyone offered any help I may need, answered a lot of questions and was very encouraging through out the day. Ended up winning my class and smiled the whole 3 hours back home and saying why did I wait so long. I have since passed on the same courtesy to others and new shooters. It is a good feeling to help and see smiles on others. Thanks to all those guys and the group that share their knowledge on this web site.
 
Just checking on the Man card thing"

Are all the Deep Creek matches sanctioned?
Yes, but they are no different then club matches other than rules are followed and results are sent in. Honestly feels like a laid back club match
 
Yup, I remember my first 600 yd HP match. I remember standing on the 600 yd berm looking at the targets and saying to myself “shoot it, Hell I can barely see it!” Been hooked ever since.
 
Washington is not far, come see us in March. Thats my favorite match of the year. If you dont have a gun we have one for you.

I wanna play too! Where in Washington? Never shot anything in a competition, but it sounds like fun. I just murdered some clay pigeons yesterday for the first time ever, and that was a lot of fun too.

Washington is not far from Missoula. www.mt1000yd.com Check our schedule after Jan. and see if you want to come shoot any of our matches. We have a rifle, rest, ammo, ext. for guys to try. Just have to let me know.
 
From having competed in several very competitive sports, rifle competition to me is truly the most competitive activity I've ever been involved with. This is especially true when I realized I wasn't so much in competition against everyone else on the line but truly in competition with my self.

Equally appealing about the sport is the selflessness of other competitors, helping others, sharing knowledge.
