Dear Shooters:

 

Mother Nature was benevolent and provided us with a great day to burn some gun powder. There were a total of 28 registered shooters in attendance. Ten in Stock Service, six Custom Defense, and nine in the Enhanced Service Division. Revolvers were in short supply at this event having only two in Stock Revolver and one lone shooter in Enhanced Service Revolver. When the smoke cleared Mr. Otis Lawrence produced the lowest overall match time by being the top shooter in Custom Defense. BORCC’s own Mike Gorbitz headed up the Stock Service Division. Enhanced Service was lead by Lee Fisher and Randy Ciesiolka was King of the Hill with the wheel gunners.

 

Stage 1, Dairy Store Shoot-Out, minced most of the shooters. This was a reenactment of an actual police shooting in New York City. Twelve of the shooters hit the no shoot, five had a failure to neutralize (including me), and six had a failure to neutralize and hit the no shoot. That left only five who ran the stage clean of penalties. Mr. Otis Lawrence navigated the course of fire in 5.04 seconds dropping only two points. This is the reason I am bestowing upon him the title of “Mister Lawrence”. I do not have the authority to title him “Sir Lawrence”. The course description had the shooters shouting “Police – drop your weapons” before engaging the first target. If you shouted the phrase and then activated the start signal; I am convinced Otis duplicated Jim Carrillo’s time of sub three seconds on this COF. My complements to you sir! Most shooters do not know that the first IDPA match Otis attended was at BORCC. We were shooting indoors; Otis was a new shooter and received coaching from the RO staff. I taught Otis everything he knows about pistol shooting. Well Mr. Otis, the coaching has ended, no more Mr. Nice Guy, from this point forward you will have to perform on your own merits. Honorable mention on Stage 1 goes to Mike Gorbitz who had a 7.71 second run down only three points. And Mike; I am not coaching you any more either. My complements to both of you. Fine shooting gentlemen.

 

Our next match will be on Sunday November 1st. If Mother Nature’s kindness continues, we will be shooting outdoors. The staff at BORCC hopes you enjoyed our little match and that you will make the first Sunday of the month a scheduled visit to our range.
