Thought I read some complaints that CAS is now dominated by people who want to win at any cost and are taking the fun out of it. Sour grapes?

grymster2007 - There are those that try to win at any cost; but, they are a minority. The majority of shooters at matches I attend are there to have a good time - do as well as you can - but have a good time. Every top shooter that I have shot with on a posse isn't one of the 'gamers' that people complain about. They practice ALOT and are very good at what they do. In the 10 years I have been doing CAS, I've probably run into less than 10 shooters that are 'win at any cost'.
ZeSpectre - There's no excuse for targets or target placement that causes excessive spatter. I've only encoutered something like that at a couple of ranges & a quick word to the match directors solved the problem.
Jack - Come down & shoot with us here in MO. We have standard sized targets at standard distances with a few smaller/longer range ones thrown in for good measure. Some of our pistol targets arent easy to hit (dous beer bottle size mean anything to you?) & I get cussed at by members every time I add them to a stage.
