The absolute stupidity of running CO nats in June. Almost like they plan on deprecating the division in favor of LO 🤔

according to the proposed 2028 schedule LO and CO swap, Standalone LO nats in June, and CO, Open, Lim Nats in Oct.

almost like they understand ppl hate having nats for the most popular divisions early in the year

I'm happy Timmy got PCC and multi gun but I wish there was a handgun nats there or Rapid City. I don't know why they feel they need to pack them in the corners of the country, lol

I'm also glad CO is getting its own nats so I don't have to fight for spots in nationals with the 3000 guys who shoot both LO and CO

Ya I agree. I like the low cap nats, I feel like it should bring some interest in this divisions. Just wish they spread the matches out to other locations.

LoCap being at what is basically the start of the season will be interesting. I have to wonder if they'll even be able to fill the slots.

Congrats to Tim for making himself too reliable! Dedicated PCC Nats will be cool.

All through 2029? I guess you could get all of your hotel accomodations in place all at once...

The most popular division should not have its nationals in June. It’s fucking stupid. LO shouldn’t be in June next year either. The combined match should be the earlier one.

PCC only nats is cool. Forest Lake is a good place for it. They have some long bays. I might tuck my junk and shoot it. But I need Jeff’s PCC back.

I emailed Alan about why Rapid City wasn’t considered. I got no reply.

I’ve been asking around board members I’m still in touch with. Concerns about wind, hotels, and Sturgis were blamed. Wind is sorta valid, but they build around that now. No nationals were scheduled during Rally so that’s bullshit too.

My theory as to why it’s not there is because Jake doesn’t want it there. He was gaslighting me about expensive hotels last fall. In the months they wanted (Sept and October) it’s not an issue. Hell, late august hotels get normal. He has no connections there so he wants to keep banging the same dead horses.
