Battle in the Bluegrass - My first Major match... Anyone going?!
Battle in the Bluegrass in Wilmore, KY is going to be the third major match of the year, just after the Alabama Sectionals last week and the South Carolina sectionals this weekend.
As I only started USPSA in October or so, I'm excited to be competing in my first major match. 9 stages in one day sounds like a blast. I'll be shooting in Production C class.
Stage diagrams are here if anyone was interested in seeing them, they look pretty fun: CLICK
Anyone else going??

Nobody replied to this the first time so I'm assuming no one on here is going, but just in case! Just left BGSL to help set up the last few stages. Looks great down there. Can't wait til Saturday!
Anyone ?!

Man I wish i had the time tomorrow. Supposed to be BEAUTIFUL. Watched one of your videos... Looks like you need another turn or two of mag tension on your holders..  They kept flyin out with those lightning reloads. Good shootin' though! Really gave it what for.

A little late to sign up now!... I think. Everything's all full up I believe, BUT if you to try you can try emailing the match director, or hop onto the BrianEnos.com forums and post in the BitB thread and ask (the match director is a mod over there so I'm sure he'd see it).
Last day of the match is tomorrow, which is when I'm shooting, so get on it quick if yo uwanna try. I dry-ran the stages today.. definitely fun stages.
You can probably find contact info on the BGSL website: www.bgslinc.com Click "USPSA" on the right-side menu, and then click "Battle in the Bluegrass" on the right side after that.

I'd love to see video! I'm a BGSL member but couldn't make it out to that event. I'm heading out to the IDPA match this weekend though.

Also if you're interested in USPSA BGSL of course has their once monthly, and Buds Gun Warehouse and Range also holds a weekly USPSA every thursday night and a once monthly every 3rd Sunday. I run some match admin for Buds, come on down!

Interesting, my buddy Lee and I are also headed out there tomorrow for the IDPA match at BGSL. We'll be the two 6'2" guys that have no idea what we're doing. Gotta take the new shooter orientation. I'll have my Rockcastle t-shirt on and a blank expression on my face. Hope to see you guys there!
