Bella Spencer Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 WOW!!! I can't believe the last minute registrations for the Midwest Classic. We are soooooo excited. It looks like we are set to have the biggest Classic ever. It is going to be a blast. We are having a new addition to the match, kinda like a side match. On Friday after the main match stages we will be having a 3 man team shoot called The Kaskaskia Team Roundup. The teams will be randomly drawn by using your name badge. There will be 3 stages. Something about that 3 just fits into the triple crown. LOL Be sure to bring enough ammo to play in the team match with us. There is still room for anyone who would like to shoot the Classic and get into the Triple Crown match. Just email me at kalexa3@yahoo.com with your information and I will get you added and you can pay when you get there. See ya in Sparta, Bella Three Cut, It must be a sign. You should come on and bring that rotton Ray guy with you. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Boy SASS#29271 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Packed up and ready to go got on the wire and looked up how to transport guns in the state of Ill. WHAT A MESS,, GOING ON WHAT T-BONE AND OTHERS HAVE SAID ABOUT THE RANGE THERE I AM GOING TO TRY IT . Getting there is another problem (Ill is one of the most unfriendly gun states in the USA) HOW TO HELL DO YOU PROTECT YOUSELF IN ILL?? I am to old and fat to fight, Ill. says no guns, No d-- wonder the crooks like ILL (no d-- wonder yan---- move to TEXAS) In fact about to change my mind (I well not be barefoot here or there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bella Spencer Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Joe Boy, I know it sounds crazy but it really isn't that bad. If you have your guns in a locked case and ammo in another spot and remember to drive the speed limit you won't have any problems at all. The state police are very active in Southern Il for speeding violations so as long as you are following the speed laws you will not have any problem. I promise it will be worth the hassle. See ya there, Bella Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mj spencer Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 THE CLASSIC IS GONNE BE OUT OF CONTROL!!!!!!!!! the party is gonna be hoppin, the friends are gonna be gathered, and the patrons are gonna be LOUD!!!!!!!! o yea, and there will even be a few rounds thrown down range. COULD NOT IMAGINE HAVING MORE FUN ANYWHERE ELSE. next weekend needs to just hurry on up and come around. btw, if you have not signed up yet, its still not to late. get your info to bella, mose, honey b graceful, or even myself and you can just pay at registration, dont miss the chance to party hard and throw lead with some of the best around. cuz if my calculations are correct there will be double digit shooters that are current or former world/national champions competing at this shoot (TWO IN MY CATEGORY!!!!!!!!!!!!) gonna be tough competetion, fun fast stages, friends, music, and more (and im sure plenty of crown will be partaken of) get signed up and come on out to one ofn the best and biggest ranges our sport has to offer. hope to see you all there, MJ, EXCITED FOR THE CLASSIC, SPENCER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snakebite Dust SASS 75484 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Is there a schedule of events for the MIdwest Classic on here somewhere? I know I saw one at one point, and cant find it now. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotgun Bandit Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Joe...not to worry....Bella is right....Gunz in case.....Ammo in separate case....all shooting stuff out of reach of driver. that means in trunk or back of suv or truck. The cops are NOT on a hunt for shooters watch yer speed ( they will usually let ya by with 5 or so over) just keep up with the traffic. Been shootin and carrying firearms in and out of IL for 30+ years and never had a problem. Been stopped for speeding but never searched or harassed.........See ya in Sparta ........Bandit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phiren Smoke GUNFIGHTER Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Howdy to all, If you watch any news or weather at all, you probably know there is a weather front stalled right on top of southern Illinois. If the front moves south we get heavy rain, if the front moves north we get severe weather. The front is supposed to move out Wednesday night or Thursday. Should have decent weather for the match. Just bring some rain gear and boots you don't mind getting muddy. Looking forward to seeing everyone there. Hope this helps, Smoke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Willy Dunkum, SASS # 61027 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Oh and get gas before you cross into Illinois, gas seems to be a tad bit higher here for some reason... See ya'll soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phiren Smoke GUNFIGHTER Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 You're just a ray of sunshine...ain'tcha Sarge, Don't shoot the messenger, but it just keeps getting better. This evening's long range forecasts out of St. Louis and Cape Girardeau say there is a chance of storms on Saturday. For those unfamiliar with the area Sparta is a little east of a line running from St Louis to Cape and roughly 1/2 way between north to south. On the up side if there is a chance of storms there is also a chance it won't storm. On another upside they are calling for high temps in the upper 60's and 70's so very nice by any standards.

Bella Spencer Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Had a beautiful day here today in Sparta, IL. It was in the mid 70's sunny with lots of Sparta wind. LOL Everything is drying up nicely. We will however have to park the vendors diffrently than normal due to the soft ground. We will be parking in the asphalt instead. Everything else will be pretty much the same. The stages are all set and I know lots of people will be showing up tomorrow.We are looking forward to a great shoot and lots of fun.
