I dont really mind the drive but not wanting to get into the bigger matches yet till I figure out whats going on and how things operate. I cant get any of my shooting buddy's to want to go to any other matches with me, It's like its out of their comfort zone? I'm going to try and make it to a few of the one's I was told about even if I have to go by myself,.. I have proven many times I can make a fool of myself without help just fine... LOL
I don't want to twist your arm but I don't think you need to worry about that much. Maybe you'd want to avoid actual Regional Championships or similar but I don't think Solon even has those.
Reach out to the contact and tell them directly you're thinking about your first 600yd match.
They'll probably be thrilled to have you and may offer extra help.
You should have a good, at least well-calculated, 600 yard zero when you get there. This forum can help with that if necessary.
I don't mean to push Solon particularly, though I've heard only good things. Atterbury or wherever else you like the sound of should be great.
