Welcome to the Georgia Section

Monday, January 29th, 2007

12-john-mcwilliams-1.JPGThis is the website for USPSA Practical Shooting in Georgia. Here you’ll find information on our clubs, details on the matches we host, and information on how to get started in this great sport.

Just as Georgia offers everything from the seashore to the mountains, Practical Shooting in Georgia runs the gamut from small 3 or 4 stage indoor matches on weekday evenings to full, national match quality, day-long, 8 stage outdoor events. Every month, just about every week of the year, one of Georgia’s USPSA affiliated clubs is hosting a match to challenge the expert shooter and introduce the novice to the most fun sport around: USPSA Practical Shooting.

Please join us on January 6th for our monthly USPSA match. Registration/checkin begins at 8:30am, shooters’ meeting at 10am. Bring at least 200 rounds for the USPSA match.

You can register online for this match. Please visit the match sign-up page at http://shootnscoreit.com/ipsc/match/865/”. If you have never registered online for a match at shootnscoreit.com, you will have to sign up with them first (it’s free!) and then register for the actual match. Please select your division and put in your particulars. PLEASE also select a squad, and register ahead of time. Then show up at 8:30am Sunday to check in and pay your entry fee. Shooting starts at 10 a.m.


We need your help with setup on Saturday, January 5th at 9:30am. The first 10 helpers that are at the range by 8:30am when setup begins and stay until setup is complete will SHOOT THE MATCH FOR FREE the next day. If you can’t make it by 9:30am or can’t stay until setup is complete, we will give you a coupon worth $10 toward the match the next day. The more people that help, the earlier we can all be finished. We will also buy your lunch. You will be entered in our yearly drawing for a GLOCK Pistol Certificate! We will be finalizing set up on Sunday morning at 8:30 am. It is also very important that all members of each squad stay to help tear down the stage they finish on and for help with any of the stages that have no squad finishing on them. Thanks very much to those of you that continue to assist us each month. We know who you are and we appreciate your help!

If you can lend a hand with setup, please email Erik Kopp at photokopp@yahoo.com. We need to confirm enough help for setting up the match before Saturday morning. Please be aware if we can’t get enough people for setup, then we can’t put on the match.

Due to policy changes at South River Gun Club, all competitors are asked to park at the Training pit/RV parking area at the top of the hill. We apologize for the inconvenience this is causing.

Good Shooting!

Please make sure you extend a HUGE thank you to not only our major match sponsor, GLOCK, but to all of our sponsors this year as well.

A big thank you to all the match staff, RO’s, CRO’s, statisticians, stage builders, and all our support people who donate countless hours of their time and effort to bring you this 2012 Georgia State Championship. Please take a couple of seconds and say “thanks” to these many volunteers when you see them around the range. They have all given very unselfishly of themselves to bring you this match and to support the sport of practical shooting.

Phil Strader for USPSA President

Monday, October 24th, 2011

Phil Strader for USPSA President. He remembers the grandeur that the Nationals used to enjoy and wants to work to restore that. He wants multi gun rules that all the several organizers can agree upon. He wants to fix Steel Challenge and make it a prosperous part of USPSA. And he (contrary to what others have said — and that includes me and for that I apologize for misunderstanding) does NOT want to go to all-Turtle targets! Please vote when your ballot arrives in the mail. The turnout was only 30% last month, and that’s a lot for a USPSA election and unbelievably pathetic at the same time. We can do better. We NEED to do better to make Phil’s quest successful. Please Visit Phil’s website for more details. (Comments are enabled for this post.)

New SCSA Rulebook (Rev July 19th, 2011)

Friday, July 22nd, 2011

Just so you all know, The SCSA rulebook was updated July 19th (3 days ago, according to the cover page) and re-published, and NO mention of it was made anywhere that I can find on either uspsa.org nor on steelchallenge.com. I have no idea what the differences are. Find it here. The USPSA BoD hasn’t learned anything from last year’s August rulebook debacle. When you update the rulebook and put it out on the national website to be used by affiliates in the conduct of their matches, you need to TELL SOMEBODY!
