Yes, regional. I can't say how other than I applied as soon as I saw the e-mail and then paid as soon as I got the invoice for the match fee.

They did, and it was. Maybe the regional slots are first come first serve? I don't know.

There may be other factors though, I (along with Danny and Henry) was in the same squad as Rich Emmonds at Vegas so maybe he remembered me?
Also I've had a good relationship with Mike Voight since I shot his very first Surefire test match in Tehachapi in 2012 and my wife took promo photos for him.
I was hoping it was because they had some spots for locals and a few of us could shoot since it's the only big SOCAL match this year.

Nothing is fucked with the PRS. You can get into the final a few ways. That said, it's ran by people, the first full time guy will start for the 2016 season, whcih can make mistakes. That said, if a mistake was made is should be exploited. The PRS will look into this.

I agree with you Charley. The PRS Series is great. I think Ben was only being sarcastic since there are others that were ahead of Evin that did not make it. I'm sure it will all get ironed out. No harm no foul.

I did not take it as a negative, only something that need to be looked into.


Evin, you are not on the list. You sure Nathan did not spam you and take your money? joking aside if you sent money to the PRS it should be refunded.

You may soon be receiving this email:
Hello Friend Shooter,

So sorry to bother you in my duress time of need, but right now i am located Tehachapi (California) where PRS Match, unfortunately i run out of cash, i tried to access my credit card from the cash machines here and not able to working.

I also went to banks for funding withdrawal but i was told that i can't get funds because the banks here does not support overseas banking, that is network errors. Wondering if i could get a quick loan of ($2,450 USD) from you to clear up my hotel bills and also take a cab to the airport i promise to refund it full satisfaction soon as i get back home. Please get back to me with positive decision soon as you receive my message so that i can tell you how to wire the funds across to me here.

Hopefully yours

Well, like I said before, I don't know how/why I got in but I'm listed in the squadding roster and until I hear otherwise I'm assuming I got a place because of reasons other than ranking. If that is the case then I'm not taking anyone's place that would have otherwise been shooting.

Evin, technically you are taking someones spot though. The finale is not for handouts. Its not for MDs to get their buddies in. Its not for a few socal guys because its a local match for us. The only proper way to get in to the finale (other then sponsor spots but thats a whole other thread in itself) is to actually qualify for it. Many guys spend thousands of dollars every year for a chance to qualify for this thing but don't make it. If they're just giving handouts to their buddies then Ben is right and something truly IS fucked up. End of story.

The only way to qualify in 2015 is one of 4 ways.

Win Match
2 top 15% finishes
Full in top 75 shooters via your points from the year.
Regionally Qualify (top four in every region)

Evin, if you did not do one of the 4, I would not plan on attending. It will get cleaned up after the last two matches of the season. The top four shooters which selected Vegas as a Regional Qualifier which did not meet the other requirements will make the final roster. They can't possibly know that before all the matches are done.

Note, it is possible that Evin qualified via vegas. For example another shooter qualified another way opening up the Regional spot. You have to be a PRS member and a selected Vegas as your regional match.

Not possible. What the other guys are upset about is that they beat Evin in vegas and would be more eligible for the qualifier spot then him.

I would have qualified in vegas but didn't know i had to register for the qualifier so im shit out of luck....gay!

OK, turns out this was a glitch in the Matrix, I emailed Rich Emmons to clear this up after all the butt hurt going on here. Apparently he sent me the registration e-mail by mistake.
I'm not interested in shooting the match if I don't have a legitimate place, but I might go out there and spot/help on Sat. if my schedule allows.

At least you don't have to fly to TN to shoot a Qualifier! And k's match has something like 180 shooters now.

Evin, Sorry to be the bearer of bad news! It was not personal brother.
