Snake, with only a week between your HP Regional and HP Nationals, I have some thinking to do. I really want to shoot PA again, but you are 750 miles closer. Can not do both. Will Lisa make another batch of her green beans? :ympray:

Bob, the green beans are on the menu. Aren't you are retired? You can shoot both and on the way back from PA you can help set up my match, you know go shopping. One of the biggest gun shops in the country is opening up at our exit off 70 and there are plenty of casinos restaurants ball games etc :D

And Lisa says she'll make whatever you would like :ymhug:

Now why would they schedule the Nationals in August and not July....I have had the same weekend in August for over 10 years...are they trying to screw up my regional? :-o Then again I have only had one guy from PA in all those years

Lever gun Nats. in Raton are in early July, 4th through 8th. Several PA guys shoot that one and HP. Add in the travel time home and needed down time for them, the Aug. 4th through 10th dates for rifle Nats. in PA is reasonable. Talking with the Champ yesterday about the possibility of shooting both Nats. and your regional looks unfavorable right now.

I am all for supporting both of these events but it would come at cost. He would want to shoot both SB and HP in PA. Add up the days to travel both ways to the week long match, then do another long distance match a week later. It would burn up a sizable chunk of his work vacation days. Throw 4700 miles of road into the equation. No way we would want to burn up the time between matches looking for something to do. I don't even want to think about the price tag of attending both matches. Decisions...decisions.

Looks like BPCR did not make the cut. :(

I don't like it, but I do understand it. I shot my first silhouette match ever there. I'll miss that match.

Brent I suspect BPCR will be back just not in 2019. Bob send me an email about your dessert or other menu requests....I don't think we have ever been short on desserts ;)
