Tn Tombstone Posted August 20 Posted August 20 Thats the reason I try to get those clean match possibilities out of the way early in the match. Avoids those types of headaches. 1 7 Quote
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted August 20 Posted August 20 I was down in Louisiana a few years back at one of Slick McClades big matches. After firing the last stage of the match, a shooter declared...'CLEAN MATCH' and said something to the effect that it was his first ever clean match, if I heard him correctly. He was so happy and elated, he turned around to the posse when he announced his 'Clean Match' and he had kept his last firearm in his hands (SG) and swept a few of us. Well, me and another shooter were the only ones who were paying attention and politely informed him of his infraction and penalty. With a kind smile, and very honorably, he acknowledged that he knew he did it and that a penalty would be forthcoming. Headache and Heartache! ..........Widder 1 Quote

Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted August 20 Posted August 20 I went through a phase a couple months ago for several weeks in a row where the first shot of the match was my one and only miss. Yep, much rather that than the last shot. 2 Quote
