Toranado, SASS # 58447

Very RARELY have I seen scores for shoots posted to the wire. It is not most people I knows first place to look for scores. Most shoots i have attended have either posted them on their own website, Facebook or emailed them directly. The Indiana state match had scores posted before most people got home!!! Within a few hours of the awards ending. One of the quickest I've seen. So, hats off to the scoring team for providing them so quickly!!!! If you don't have a facebook account, you can create a new email via google if you don't want to use your current and quickly sign up. I would recommend as with many clubs are using Facebook for communication as it allows very quick updates of what's going on for the match, pic, videos and such and the cost is FREE, vs a website which is hard to post and edit and can cost hundreds per year to maintain. With clubs not growing like they did before, reducing expenses is important to keep things going and put money into improving the shooting experience.

Today, exported a cv file of shooters out of Cas scoring and with a little manipulation, imported into practiscore. Disappointing to have to change, but was easy to switch back.

Just switched from practicescore to cas scoring this year. Looks like we’re going back to practicescore. Maybe a reasonable 20-$25 a year , but $64 a year is too high

Same for us! Good date

I also enjoy spending time with friends and visiting with others from around the country. That is the great part of this sport that no matter how the shoot is, it makes it fun. But we are also here to compete in a shooting event as the primary reason for our attendance, and if that is not enjoyable, it tends to lessen the enjoyment of the whole match IMO. The match entry costs are going up and up and we are getting less and less, and generates higher expectation, all which contribute to some's unhappiness also. I had a different match than you. More misses than I've had EOT/WR than I can remember. (After shooting F&I and RRup clean) I also did shoot the Thursday morning session in 50-80mph winds on stages 1-4 which were I think the smallest are farthest targets, which made it extremely difficult.

I believe Creeker's comments were a new topic from the topic of "did u have fun at EOT 2025". I could be wrong, but that what I took it as.

Not land run. I have not shot that match yet but hear it is excellent in all aspects.

The sad part I think is that the stage writers and group deciding target size and placement for "the championship", thought in their mind they HAD set up a mix. BUT that mix was far, farther, and farthest and small, smaller and smallest. I felt that match setup in 2024 was excellent. Not sure why the change in direction.

April Mae and myself just joined the list yesterday! Looking forward to it!

I'll take the 3 xds 7rd 45 mags for 45 shipped

I believe there is a basic function in the setup of IP board that will send an email notification to someone when a new user registers. Just drop that name in a simple excel file when receive notification. Once a month review names who are about to expire with the SASS office to see if the many have joined. And if not, delete. Yes, simple, no programming costs and take about 30 min maybe a month. Yes programming and running this board is and can be expensive, that's why this benefit of membership should be for current members in good standing or guests for a limited time

Simple solution. Guests get 6-9 months before their web access expires and need to become paying members Dues and membership pay the funds for SASS to support this website. If your not an active paid member or in that 6-9 month guest bucket, just read only access IMHO In my opinion the decline in paid membership is because of the generousity of SASS to still offer these services (like this website and being able to shoot matches without fees, unlike other pistol sports) to all for free trusting that the membership will continue to support them, while you have many shooters who proudly wear their sass badge and use their ailias, post on this website and haven't paid dues for years. That's disgraceful in my opinion.

What do you want SASS to do for you???????? What interest do you want SASS to take in your club???? Been a match director for he past 10+ years and never was wondering what INTEREST Sass had in my club or what they can DO for me, BUT more what WE as a club and me as a member can do to hep grow and promote SASS or help support our community

Thanks for taking us Illinoinans in!!!

$100 bucks was 2015, 2106 was only $50 In an effort to simplify the process and eliminate any misunderstanding, there is a change in the pricing structure this year- as a result of your requests and feedback, the affiliation fee is a flat $50; regardless of your SASS membership status within your club members Again no excuses not to support the organization that created what we love to do!

It's only $50 bucks for the year and very sad that anyone posting on the wire can justify why their club can't come up with $50 bucks for the YEAR to support the organization who created the sport we participate in. Who gave us years of enjoyment and friendships can't justify why to send $50 bucks for the year!! For that 15 person club. That's like $3.50 per person???? The same people who spend thousands on guns, leather & ammo. It's all what have you don't for us lately, how about what they have done for us all for over the last 25 years! Last year I changed my monthly match fees and gave a discount of $5 off match fees for sass members and hinted to those to join sass because I'll pay the first $40 bucks( $5 times 8 matches). Had some people who refused to shoot because the felt I was charging them more because they weren't sass member. Refused to join sass again because said they "weren't getting anything", yet still wore the sass badge got along time ago, used the sass alias and attended many sass state shoots over the years and had a large group of friends they never had before sass. Weren't getter my anything??? BS. Sass gave them a lifetime of stuff. What I came to understand, some people just like to complain about everything and are never happy. I say. Good riddance! (Now off my soapbox)
