Richard,
You can count on my vote. Its not worth much as I only shoot at Luther. Hope to maybe make it to Mooreland this year. Just don't like to travel that much. Would be nice though.....go for it.

I went to Woodward yesterday
and had a good visit with Butch on several issues.
Next year there will be trophys for the mid-con three gun, down to fifth place.
That really needed to happen, when you work your rear off to be competative and finish well, there ought to be something to show for the effort.
We also talked about the HOF issue, what matches to include, what the point format would be,ect. One thing I brought up is this, I would like to see it started from square one. In other words there would be no points awarded from previous years. The other thing is not make it to easy, I don't think you ought to be able to make it in to the HOF in one year. At the selected matches a point format which had a half point for a yardage, a point for a grand, a point for a 2-gun. 15 points to make the HOF.
These are just some ideas, what do you guys think?

Regional Hall of Fame.
We started the Eastern region Hall of Fame in 2004. We used the Eastern Regional Championship match (a three-gun event usually held over Labor Day weekend) and gave points for yardage and grand aggregate wins in the three classes. To gain admittance one needs ten points in a manner similar to the US Benchrest Hall of Fame. We went back as far as we could (1982) to find the Regional Championship results and then applied the points as best as we could. We may have missed some, but the initial inductees were certainly major names over a lengthy period in this region as far as we could determine. Those initial inductees included Tony Boyer, Ed Shilen, Perry Morton, Stan Buchtel, Fred Hausecuster, Herb Start and Orlin Gilkerson. There is also a provision for honorary inductees, of which some pretty big names in our region were added, including Ralph Stolle, Walt and Nelson Berger, Phil Sauer and George Kelbly.
There is a total of twelve points available each Regionals annually; one point for a yardage win and two for a grand win in three classes. It is certainly possible to get all of the necessary points in one year (as it also is in the US HOF), but it is unlikely. The most one person got in one year in the ER is seven by a guy in 2007 at fairchance. If someone were to win ten points in one Regionals, I would believe that would be something that should be recognized regardless of how long he or she was in competition.
In 2008 we had Lowell Hottenstein gain his induction. Lowell started shooting in the 1970's. I would believe that shows a long and enduring involvement in the Region and dedication to the game.
