Boy, it is going be fun!

 The forecast for September 4th at Sky Wolf Ranch is for a high of 94*.  That is spring like weather for here.  We expect about 30 shooters but we can handle more.  We will have 3 brackets if we get 36 or less shooters.  If we get 37 or more, we will have have four brackets.  If we get 49 or more, we will have 5 brackets.

If we have 30 shooters with 8 in the money that is 25% of the shooters will be in the prize money.  If we have more shooters, there will be more in the money.

For you greedy gunslingers, you can double your money if you win both the main match and your bracket, you would think this would be easy to do, but in our test shoot, that did not happen.  We shall see.

It will be a blast.  See you tomorrow at Pioneer for an Arizona  Bracket shoot.

Sky Wolf Ranch Jackpot Shoot

 The Sky Wolf Ranch Jackpot Shoot - Added will be held on September 4th, 2021.  It will more like a CFDA titled match than most of our club shoots here in Arizona.  Here are some of its novel features.

Added:  The corporate sponsor, Loess Hills Paladins, Inc, is warranting the purse.  If there is not enough shooters to fund the prize money, Loess Hills will "add" the additional money needed.  Payout is 2/3 prize money with 1/3 going to the venue. Entry fee is $15.  Prize money will not be less than $300.

Last Man Standing:  It will be a 2x last man standing shoot at championship distance and targets.  There will also be a 3x last man standing bracket shoot at championship distance and targets.

Five Shot Option: We will use Arizona Five because it sorts better and saves range time. By using Arizona Five we will be able to give every shooter 5 xs instead of 3 or 4 xs.  Rules are as set for in CFDA five shot format except there are no ties or tie breakers in Arizona Five.  0-0 or 1-1 results in an X for both shooters. 2-2 results in a W for both shooters.  All shooters leave the line at the same time.

Simultaneous Bracket Shoot:  After round 2 of main match a bracket report will be run and all shooters will be placed in brackets.  We anticipate three brackets.  The simultaneous bracket shoot will begin after round 3 of main match.  Shooters will only shoot in bracket match after they are eliminated from main match. For an explanation see my March 7th, 2021, post.

Late Arrivals:  Sign in is 7:00 a.m., summer hours.  For some coming a substantial distance, they may want to come late and skip the main match.  If they get here before registration finishes for the bracket shoot, we will let them enter the bracket shoot in their appropriate bracket.  We have yearly bracket reports on most shooters.

Additional Sponsors:  As of today the purse is $300 which will be divided 1st $50, main match, and three brackets, 2nd $25 main match and three brackets.  If any one else would like to be a sponsor, please contact me.  Sponsors will be recognized at the shooter's meeting and on the face book. It would be great if we could get more sponsors to "add"  to the pot.
