Pat Riot Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 I have shot exactly 25% of one match on a hot day wearing a black frock coat with a vest and long sleeve shirt. I thought I looked pretty snappy at the start of the match that day. Halfway into stage 3 I stripped off some clothing. I was signed up for Duelist. Style points are not worth the hassle...or the heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have made for a crappy day but with temps only in the high 60s to low 70s it wasn't as bad as it would have been in July and August. We had 10 shooters and more fun than should be legally allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixgun Seamus Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 It's not how good you shoot, it's how good you look WHEN you shoot. Classic Cowboys/Cowgirls rule. I wear 11 of the 12 Classic items almost all shoots. I don't wear a coat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rifle weighs twice my carbine...and don't get me started on that old Russian hammered shotty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Rick Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I'm not shooting CC but I wear enough CC items at every match to qualify except for firearms. It can get warm on the MS Gulf Coast. Just drink more water and electrolytes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
