The Indiana State ARA tournament will be held at Wabash Wildloife and Sportsman's Association range on Sunday June 28th at 9:00am sharp. Sign up no later than 8:30 am. We have a 4 card club match on Saturday the 27th for those wanting to warm up at the range. I kind of need a head count to prepare for food. The list I know of either first hand or second is.......

John Carper
James Goble
Mark Penrod
Jim Plencner
Terry Mahoney
Ed Ledbetter
Lee Myers
Bill Wheeler
Mike Worthington
Dana Aumend
Kirk Gaston
Dan Killough
Fred Leeds
Rick Shouse
Carl Dean
Walt Day
Stanley Clark
David Petty
Max Petty


Assume that.....

Mark Meadows
Mike Sherrill
Alan Bates
Marvin Batliner
Todd Wooten
Doug W. Brown
Clifford Arnold

will be there.

Let me know if you plan on coming to plan for food and drinks. $40 entry fee. Plaques to top five overall, high cards (6), and high card overall. Food and drinks provided.
 
Don,
Are you coming alone or with someone? I'm excited that you are coming but I need to be sure the food and drinks are plentiful. It's 26 miles to the range and they don't have a kitchen or refrigerator so I have to bring it in coolers and crock pots. Thanks man!

That adds two more to the list I already posted and I didn't count the numbers. This Indiana State ARA Tournament is open to all. I will not turn anyone away. It may be a long day, but it will be fun and competitive.

Will be there...

Hey Don...
I was just wondering if you got the PM I sent you confirming I will be coming to Wabash on 28 June for the tournament?

Thanks...
Bryant
 
Bulls-Eye,
If you sent Don Matzeder one I don't know if he got it, but I got mine. Let me know if you need directions to the range. My email and phone number is available on the ARA website.

Hey John,
Sorry about that...I was thinking John but was looking at the previous post that started with Don and I think I typed what I was looking at instead of what I was thinking! I meant to address it to you and just made a goof-up...sorry for the confusion. I just wanted to make sure I had a spot reserved. I am coming up with Kirk after the Owensboro match on Saturday so I will just follow him to the range.
Thanks and sorry again for the typo.
~Bryant
 
Not a problem Mr. Brown. Look forward to meeting you and I wish you luck at Owensboro. See you in a few weeks.

Carp
 
I have not talked to anyone local to see if they want to ride along. I'll let you know when I talk to them.
 
headcount

hey Carp, your right I'll be there and should be bringing a couple more shooters with me (John Boyce, Bryce Tanner).

This is the updated list of definate, semi-definate, probable, semi-probable, possible, and semi-possible shooters that will compete at Wabash Wildlife and Sportsman's Association Indiana State Tournament on June 28. Could this be a "Battle of the Titans"? Sounds exciting (even though I am not one of them)!

Got an update from this evening. Rex Thompson is coming from Michigan. This is awesome folks. Talked to some shooters that may be coming or inviting others and we hope they join in. Let me know very soon, or this tournament will be full. I've asked some other folks to invite Jane Studebaker (widow of the great man Mike Studebaker) to shoot either Sat., Sun. or both or visit with her friends if she doesn't shoot.

Well, that's 35 shooters in the confirmed and assume list. Wabash has 12 usable benches and even with a 9:00am start for the IN State ARA Tournament we would have a hard time doing 4 relays. Any glitch during the day would press daylight to the final relay not being able to finish their final match. I am limiting the day to 36 competitors (been asking for confirmation) to the confirmed and assumed list plus one. If you are on the assumed list and do not plan to attend then contact me. E-mail..jmcarper@indy.rr.com, home phone (765) 677-1836, cell phone (765) 669-2124 or even just PM me on this site. See you all on the 28th!

I had a couple of phone calls today with people asking to shoot the Sunday June 28 tournament. One now confirmed shooter traveling with a previously confirmed shooter. One asking to shoot and bring another competitor but he doesn't want to push anyone out of their spot (even though they haven't contacted me in any way...phone, e-mail or pm). I told him there will be a point that 1st come first serve will dictate. That will prevail real soon.

p.s. it looks like we will have 14-22 shooters for Sat. the 27th for those interested. 4 cards 9:00am start, 8:30am bench drawing.

This has all been a lot of work to get this done. I would appreciate if each and everyone of you would show up.

Our field is now full. We cannot add any shooters to the list as of present. If available positions open up Then let me know if you're interested in one. I've spent hours and hours planning this thing and I've been rewarded. 36 confirmations either over the phone, BRC, at matches, or by e-mail. The Lord gives to those who sow. I appreciate that. These are the confirmed names as of the present.
