2024 South East Regional Ambush At Cavern Cove


Recommended Posts

Ambush at Cavern Cove is in its 28th year! We are one of the longest running annual matches in SASS. We have had this match on the first weekend in October, first weekend being the first Sunday, for 26 of the 28 years the match has been running.

 

The match registration is open. The registration form is on our website. https://www.northalabamaregulators.com/_files/ugd/e76cb2_9f1be325d8244de2a712f2148edf8a33.pdf

Please print it off and mail it in.

 

Camping is full, as it always is.

 

We will have Molly's buckles for our Regional Winners 

 

As of right now we are planning on two flights of shooters.

I could use a few volunteers to help out with the match.

I need a couple of people to run the long-range side match.

I could use a couple of volunteers to help with Shooter Sign in and door prizes.

If there is somebody out there who is a graphics designer / artist and is interested in a side job out please reach out to me via PM.

 

Note for those staying on the range. There will be no breakfast at the range. 

Our food vendor experienced a poor showing for breakfast and has declined to offer breakfast.

As we where doing some range maintenance we found that a Ground Hog had taken up residence under the Hill Cabin right under Copperhead Joe and Catatonics room. 
We went through the options of getting rid of the critter. 
1. 10 gallons of a 50/50 gas diesel mix down in his hole.

2. 5 pounds of Tannerite.

3. We snipe the little bugger. 

We decided that the outcome of option 1&2 while having a Surefire outcome might damage the hill cabin. 
The third option was put into play.

The little bugger is still alive. 
Maybe next time.

Hmmm, let's recap.  There is a ground hog in residence at the gun range and the resident owners couldn't off him with a gun. It sure is a fortuitous happenstance the the owners are bringing in a butt load of help on Oct. 4-5. ;)

Capture the ground hog, build him a nice pen and make him forecast the weather.  Historically speaking, you could use some help with the weather.

There were extenuating circumstances. Shoot the bugger from 200 yards and put a hole through the Hill House or camo up the golf cart and stalk in close. So I guess we might need some help. We called this guy but he was not much help.

Still looking for stage sponsors.  Stages #7, #10 and #1 are spoken for.  You'll be in the shooters handbook, mentioned in the stage descriptions, and announced at the awards ceremony.  Go online and fill out the application and submit.  You can mail in the fee, or just drop it off when you check in.

 

Business, organizations and shooters are welcome to participate!
