I was the USPSA and Steel Challenge Match Director at the World Shooting Complex

[Tyler Durden]

I used to buy my stage designers/staff/setter-uppers lunch.

I would work nights, get home at about 5 AM on say a Thursday morning, be at the range at 7 AM, set up the stages with a few other guys,  get back home maybe at 1 PM, sleep for a few hours, then go to work.

Work Friday night, get home at 5 AM, head to the match/range, staple up targets, then do the match director'ing thing, eat lunch real quick, hand out the gift certificates to the "staff" for their lunches, then haul bootie back home, maybe sleep for a couple of hours, maybe not, then go into work Saturday night. 

get home Sunday morning, wake earlier, head to my assistant match director's house, and punch in some scores.

through the grapevine I have heard that the state might shut down that club/charter, then start a new club.

I suspect that in the future all the shooters will have to join that club, as in get charged a membership fee.  The match fee prices have already gone up , higher, than what I had recommended.

I have also heard that the Amateur Trapshooting Association might pull the Grand out of the shooting complex, but that just seems too rumor mill for me.

sighhhhh.....as the world turns....

Sounds like there is a conspiracy in play.  With the all the crap that comes from Chicago backstabbing and lying would not surprise me for any locale in Illinois.  It's like follow the money; who do all the people who are "crying" know in common who is laying low in the background.

A state shooting club?  What the heck?
