Always can use help. We start setting-up about 10 on Friday, the 14th. Edited December 7, 2012 by 2Alpha

Bay 2 looks like a Jason Edwards inspired design with all that steel.
The 100 yard Dashing through the snow does not look friendly to us weight challenged shooters...lol
Can't wait to give them a go on the 15th.

The stages are up and look great- though some are naughty and some are nice!  Should be good weather and lots of fun.  Look forward to seeing everyone at the Match.

I shot the match today. It was my first time shooting USPSA but i really enjoyed it. Thanks for putting on a great match

[runningfree]

Had a great time today. Thanks Mark (Santa) and all his Elves for their time in setting up the stages and putting this on for us.

Glad y'all enjoyed it.  Look forward to seeing you next year at the range.  Have a Merry Christmas.

Ya know I shot the match and cant make heads or tails of the scores. I was the only revolver shooter so that part wasnt hard. How do you figure it out?

[Guest perjohn]

points/time=hit factor(hf)

the shooter with the highest hit factor on a given stage wins the stage, and all of the available points.

all of the other hit factors for that stage are calculated as a percentage of the winning hit factor, and they receive that percentage of the available points for that stage. whoever has the most points for the match wins.

simple, right?

And you can further break this down to High Over All, Division (production/open/revo) and Class ( D C B A M GM)   depending on how you look at it. Some like to win over all, some like to win their Division over all or just their Class..................because a Class C shooter in Production has no shot at winning HOA against open guns.

I guess I'm just slow I still don't get it. It's just gonna take me a while.

Hi Rickey,  I understand your question - How did I do?  When you are the only one in the division, you finished first ......but you also finished last so it is difficult to judge how you did.  I looked at you score for the classifier stage - 4 Bill, and you had a hit factor of 3.59 (very nice).  How you score on the classifiers is how you are ranked.  With the classifiers, USPSA has accumulated a lot of data from a lot of shooters.  Based on this historical data the "maximum" hit factor for a particular stage, or 100% hit factor is determined.  Then your hit factor for that stage is compared to the max to get your percentage.

 

GMs are 95-100%

Masters are 85-94.9%

A  is 75-84.9%

B is 60-74.9%

C is 40-59.9%

D is 2-39.9%

 

go to http://www.uspsa.org/uspsa-faq-details.php for more info

 

 

Now how did you do?  your hit factor would have put you at about 58%, or a high C

 

I Hope this helps.  Soon we should have the scores posted at orsaap.com, and there we will have all the divisions combined which will also give you a handle on how you did, though shooting a revolver puts you at a slight disadvantage.

[dlmeadows]

Ok so if I got that last post correct, my percentage on the 4 bill was 64.xx so that puts me as a b shooter. Is that correct? I'm as confused as Rickey is about this stuff since it was our first time ever shooting uspsa.

[dlmeadows]

No wait never mind I was wrong. I'm still confused lol

[Guest DaG]

 Try this.  http://classifiercalc.com/  It's accurate.

[2Alpha]

You have to determine what your hit factor was for 4 Bill (Number 08-01), then using the link that DaG posted, using the appropriate division you shot in, look up 08-01 and enter your hit factor.  It will then show what your Percentage is for that classifier.
