What You Need To Know For Regionals

Everything you really have to know is on the Regionals tab of the Event Info page of this site. Dates, times, location…all the stuff that I never can remember. Luckily, my boss, E-Matee, can roll off when we start/finish, register, when the Starbucks opens, and when Scout and I need our medicine.

Me, I’m like his Biden; kinda cranky, handy with the wacky information, and really good at causing distractions. Rules and course description is my deal.

With that said, y’all just click on that hyperlink up top for the logistical stuff and I’ll throw out some of the “unwritten” info that may help you navigate through the Regional stage.

For the Archery discipline, you can use some of your own gear (release and arm guard) if you so choose. We will have some to choose from on-site if you forget yours. Oh, and don’t expect three-broadside targets sitting in the sun; prepare for nasty angles and strange bulls-eye placement.

Baitcasting will have a few surprises this year. It’ll be the same targets, but an early end to deer season gave me some extra time to design a really difficult, but true-to-life bedding scenario course. It’ll be a monster. Independence and Nashville cast to kiddie pools, so they’ll get payback with their obstacle target.

Air Rifle is the same as the last two years; just shoot straight and fast.

Soon as I finish this blog, I’m getting Eric on the phone and we’ll be talking Skills. The gear is ordered, all we have to decide is which Regional gets what skill. Bunch of new stuff, but if you can take care of yourself outdoors, nothing to it.

I’ve seen the numbers of those that have confirmed for Regionals and I would advise you to get there early for registration. Don’t want to have to rush through paperwork and then have to step on the course hurried.

For those going to Nashville, come out and see the celeb event. Craig Morgan, Mark Wills, Joey & Rory, and a ton of others. Fun to watch and you may see some things that will be in your event. At the Air Rifle portion of their event, watch Rhean Boyer and Wills…they rolled the course last year.

And remember, no matter what anyone else says, competitor numbers go on the back.

Johnathan, It worked when I first put it up...not sure what happened. I even went back to the main page, event info, regionals, and it didn't come up. I'll try and find out what's going on in the morning.
