Thanks guys. That was an awesome match. I'm not good at AAR's so hopefully Rich and Ryan will chime in. Here are some photos that I took.

I'm still speechless. Great time with great people.

Solo kicked some serious ass. Made a name for himself for sure. Congrats buddy.

Post by **autoessentials** » Mon Sep 29, 2014 4:44 am

Yep. Ryan is right. At the beginning of the match people were asking who is this Solomon guy? By the end of the match everybody knew the Solo Man. He put a mark on them on the very first stage when he sprinted down a two story tower to grab one more round, cleaning all of the targets with 2 seconds to spare! He killed it both days, beating the best shooters in the country! He was only one single shot away from winning first place and winning the LRH division as well. That would have been $10,000! Holy crap!

The match was challenging in general mainly based on the format. You had a start time assigned to you. At that exact time you were on the clock for the first stage. You had 5 minutes to shoot two stages at each location, then 5 minutes to travel to the next location before your stage start time begun again. That was regardless of whether you were ready or not, or even present for that matter. You had to reload mags on the run, have the course of fire straight in your head, and your dope cards correct. It was crazy. Barrel mirage was intense due to shooting the whole day in about an hour. First day round count was 112, second day was 52. We had great weather minus the humidity, and the mirage. There was no helping from anybody. You had to run the whole course by yourself. The shots ganged from a golf ball at 164 yards to 1100 yard steel. They also had a mover that was moving fast enough for me to have to use a 2.3 mil lead to hit it. All in all it was a great match, even though I had some issues with crapping out on two stages from my dope cards flying off while running. I never caught my breath or stopped sweater either of the days while shooting this match. It was intense. Big hats off to Solo and Ryan on repping CA in the finale!!

Rich thanks for the after action report! Congrats on making it to the finale and repping CA! The course of fire sounds tough and a lot of cardio!

Rich C. travels in style! you're allowed to drive to each stage rather than walk?

No they give you a ride back to your car after completing the COF for the day.
