    Well, if it is a commercial venture and you do not have actions on and first response, it isnt very well organised is it?.

    I paid $2000 for the first range. Built it, financed it in one summer and handed it over to the shooters.
    Second range was $6000. Built it and left it open for all to use but remained in control of that one.

    I believe Tussock already has steel after the first NZ shoot we had ? It was organized per internet as well.
    Gimp has taken it upon himself organize stages, his suggestions are good and I've organized a fair amount of shoots up to a few hundred shooters, so should be able to put something up.

    If it'll be Gunslinger type I don't know, never been to one as I didn't want to work for them. The extension of that would be someone else striking coin on my work, which I have expressly forbidden with the CD etc. Initial plan is to get Tussock out of earshot and help Gimp get a workflow that is managable by 2 or 3.

    Then they can set a date, get sponsors, prices and prizes etc.

    I will stipulate that in exchange for my help the prize rules will be:
    Best performers get some sort of recognition for their skill
    Physical sponsor prizes is divided by lottery - anyone can walk away with the prize regardless of how well they shot. The only requirement is that they participated.

    Na, an afternoon of being abused as I administer foot drill. It would definitely be Dads Army with you lot. I miss yelling at cunts and it being considered normal
