Sweet! Vegas here I come...
For some reason it was much easier talking the gf into taking a trip to Vegas than it was to get her to go to Tulsa
Probably only the multigun match for me though, dunno if I can take two weeks of Vegas in less than two months...

Thanks Kim. This might make it tough for us East Coasters, but then again there's always cheap flights to Vegas.

Wife's already told me to put in to work the thing. I told her there will probably be a little more competition for staff spots this year than for Tulsa 
Heard this said about me one time about 12 years ago... back when I was one of the lean and mean (I was the head instructor for a unit field exercise).
Young LCpl: "Hey Gunny... how come we're just standing around... we were supposed to start 20 minutes ago?
Company GySgt: "The war doesn't start until Cpl Wolverton's had his coffee."

The Match Director and staff are pulling out all stops this year. They're contracting with the Las Vegas Fire Department to turn fire hoses on the competitors on every stage for the first half of each match. For the second half, they're importing cow manure, mixing it 50/50 with septic water and spreading it ankle deep along all shooting paths. This fine team is committed to replicating the Tulsa experience for all.
