Brad and I were talking about leaving the valley at 8pm friday night so we get up there by 12:30 or 1 and sleep for 6 hours before the match.
There are usually $45 hotel rooms so it's worth it to be rested before the match...

You shooting? I like the idea of having a place to sleep, but remember this is Superbowl weekend. Rooms are probably scarce...

We were talking about taking stevens pathfinder, leaving the valley around 8pm Friday night.
If brad and I split a room and you and Steven split a room, the pathfinder is full.

Brads van does not get as good of gas mileage, but if we had 6 people splitting gas, it's not so bad...

I'll coordinate rooms, but I'm not getting stuck holding the bag if you guys flake out.

If Solomon and ray want to jump in and we take brads van, then it's a true party van trip...

4 is the limit for the pathfinder with gear and that's going to be tight in the back. 5 or more can we do the van?

I didn't shoot the parts of stages that required me to get up and down off the ground under clock time so I had to take a zero for about 9 shots...

Honestly, I don't know why I shot so poorly. Got greedy and zeroed KYL otherwise, when the shots broke, they felt good...... but no hits. Go figure! Conditions were just about ideal and the sleep deprivation didn't hit me until the way home.

Somebody set me up for failure on the kyl ha!! Made my first hit and when I went back to the bench to get the next round a 243 round mysteriously appeared mixed with my 308 so it chambered hard and when I shot it sounded suppressed... No call on the shot, went to extract and saw it was now a blown out 243 case into a 308 and had all kinds of unburnt powder all down the barrel . I fucked up by picking up that round that had to be under somebody's bag and when they picked it up it rolled to my 308 pile! Lesson learned but I fucked up everywhere so that wasn't why I placed so shitty! Like Sammy says "dad you just suck" yes mija!

My shots on prone were spot on hitting dead center till the wind picked up in the end. We won't talk about positional...

Just gotta keep working at it
