what has happened to all nthe pin shooters

[Johnny]

Were are all of the bowling pin shooters?Are y'all afraid of one of the youngsters beating you or is it you are afraid of getting beaten by a couple of old men.Everybody talks a good game then they do not show up, what gives? ( FLT,Targetshooter,Bob,dishdoc,Jim,Dribble,and others)

[Dale Gribble]

Quite frankly, for me its the amount of time/money invested vs the return. And the fact its on a night that I can't attend.

[Safety Guy]

I'll be trying it for the first time when my gun comes in, if it ever comes in :(

[0utlaw]

It seems weighted towards 1911's in .45ACP.....I imagine it's hard to get very many of them to run all at the same time :flamer:

[Rumbler]

It's not that it is 'weighted toward the 1911', it's just that most of the manly men not afraid of a challenge carry 1911s.:p

BTW - JMW shoots a S&W wheelgun in .45ACP. He is a double manly man (you can tell by the walrus mustache).

[thedishdoc]

Having to download the mags to only 6 shots is a deal killer for me.

Put turbans on the pins and print I kill you on the front. That should make it a tactical event which in turn should draw out all the operators. Allow all the 9mm shooters to load 18 rounds per magazine . That should draw them out at least once. ;)

Hey dish doc are you saying because you are limited to 6 rounds that you feel that you can not compete,how many rounds do you need?practice and you will not need more.

No I'm saying I find running a weapon that holds 13 .45 rounds and only loading it to hold 6 does not jive with how I carry it. If you want to run a weapon that only holds 6, more power to you. But I bought a weapon with a higher capacity. Making everyone drop down to someone else's choice to carry a limited capacity weapon is the issue. If you run a gun that holds 6 you should train to become proficient enough to run it as well as the guy with a higher capacity.

[Johnny]

I do carry my n1911 with more rounds than 6.I only load 6 for the match .I do not have a problem with 6 rounds in the mag for the match.I have 10 round mags for my 1911s.Whats the deal????????

[thedishdoc]

Sigh...

[Cattle/Horses]

Dish think about it this way. When you go to a turkey shoot, do you have to go to the line with 5 shells in your shotgun?

Games are different than hunting or self defense.

Now that makes sense to me.

Games are different than hunting or self defense.You are correct sir, that is why I now run C4 and not pins. And I enjoyed the heck out of shooting pins. But I can do that here. The thing that C4 offers me that I cannot replicate here is the ability to shoot at multiple targets in 180 degrees.

[Cattle/Horses]

Gotcha, different games for different folks. I loved sporting clays, didn't care much for trap or skeet.

[Johnny]

I get it dish doc you have now become a wantbe,been there done that shit for real,do not have the desire to redo 4yrs worth.

[HarleyBrent]

I thoroughly enjoy the Pin Shoots. There is a great group of guys and it really is a challenge. The deal breaker for me is when Shelby's lesson got moved to Thursday evening and it was no way I could make it.

[thedishdoc]

Not sure I understand sir? I love all kinds of shooting. However my ammo budget and time sadly are limited to pursue it. I can and do shoot trick stuff all the time around here with my neighbors. But what I can do at C4 I cannot replicate here. So that is where I spend the limited time and ammo I can afford to burn. It's not personal nor is it that I did not enjoy shooting with you guys and I enjoyed the course, it's just a matter of time and ammo budget.

[FLT]

I love this place!:hump::dammit:

If he keeps it up though, I'll have to break out my red grading pen on his posts. I better stock up on ink refills. ;)

[Johnny]
