Wow, what a weekend!!!!

Day 1 – Thursday: Rally area and initial range setup.
We had a range crew of 16 bust ass for about 10 to 12 hours cleaning up all the ranges, hang about 120 + banners, and start to setup props and targets for the weekend. This is our 6th TBRC event, and the range has never looked better. We had “SureFire Road” leading the competitors to the check in area, and our rally point for our shooter’s brief in the mornings.

Day 2 – Friday: Competitors check in and final range setup begins.
The range crew kicks off at 0700 on Friday and pushes till about 6pm to get the entire range ready for game day. This was our biggest TBRC to date with 5 separate ranges, and 4 different evolutions.

Competitors shot a Long Range, Short Range, Steel, and Run & Gun evolution over 2 solid days of shooting. The COF called for 215 rounds fired if a competitor was able to fire every required round. Shortest shot was @ 25 yards, with the longest being @ 1K. There were 36 rounds fired from 800 to 1000yards. The core of the match was shot from 200 to 600yards, with a small percentage being inside 200yards for our short range evolution.

Check in went from 8:30am to 4:30pm. Competitors received a ton of match and sponsor related schwag in their shooter bags provided by SureFire. Arc’Teryx LEAF provide everyone with hats, we had stickers, challenge coins, patches, magazines, AmericanSnipers.org calendars, round count booklet from Storm Tactical, and the nicest match booklet I have yet to see. It was printed by the same company that SureFire uses to print their magazines. We had it done in 100% color, on glossy magazine type of paper. It contained every piece of information for the next two days of shooting, sponsors logos were in full color, stage information, and range layouts.

SureFire did interviews with about 10 to 12 of our top sponsors that were present at the event. This should be neat to see in the final video that will be produced by Michael Victor of Victor Company.

Garin Lee with SureFire also did a nice suppressor demo with side match. The best 3 shot group from a SureFire suppressed 308win would win a SureFire Fury light. Travis Case barely beat out Chase Stroud in that race.

Day 3 – Saturday: Competition Day 1
Competitors rallied at the pole barn @ 0700 sharp for our shooter’s meeting lead by Shawn and me. After our quick meeting, all the squads were transported to their various ranges.
Alpha and Bravo started the event on the Steel Evolution. This particular evolution called for about 90 rounds, and had 12 COFs involved. Alpha and Bravo’s Day 1 CBS was a 3” Shoot N C @ 325 yards, a tad under MOA.

Charlie and Delta started this event with 3 evolutions, short range, run & gun, and long range. Their day would consist of about 130 rounds possible, and A LOT of shooting. Delta started on the long range evolution while Charlie shot the short range and run & gun. These two squads flipped flop areas mid day.
As always, getting things going took a lil more time (by about 30 minutes) than I wanted, but once the range crew started to hit on all 12 cylinders, we were smoking. Score sheets and shooters were run through COFs as efficiently as I have ever seen at our TBRCs.

On the steel range we had 4 ROs running the two squads through their COFs. At any given time there were 4 stages being shot all at the same time.

On the Run & Gun we had Jason, David, and Jason running shooters through the COF VERY efficiently. Those guys just rocked it as I thought they were going to be our bottleneck with a 4 minute par time per shooter. Tom was kind enough to follow each RO and competitor down range with his Ranger UTV and get them back up range once they were shooting. Once they broke the 180, the next RO and competitor would start heading down range.

Short range was moving on the same pace as our Run & Gun so they were able to flip flop their shooters almost at the same time. Rod had the shooters moving along very well and efficiently through 30 rounds, and 5 courses of fire involving two mover stages on paper.

Rob Thomas and George Mac had the 20 competitors on the Long Range evolution scooting around at a good pace. We actually slowed things down a lot this year compared to previous years. At our monthly events, we actually move a lot faster on our long range course, but we realized not everyone has shot at our cadence before. To keep things fair, we increased all of our prep time and shoot times.

We also hired the Jr. HP Team (The CA Grizzlies) to pull pits for us. This investment bought the competitors 3 hours of shoot time that is used for our Run & Gun and Short Range evolutions. Competitors didn’t do a thing but pull the trigger for two full days.

One of the biggest challenges for the day, or actually the whole weekend was the heat. We are typically around mid 80s to high 70s around this time of year. I purchased 28 cases of water, 16 cases of sports drink and it was all gone by the end of day 1! This amount of hydration usually last us throughout a TBRC with some to spare. We also went through about 350lbs of ice between Thursday and Saturday.

Our range support staff busted their ass keeping everyone hydrating and making sure scores were hitting our scoring team ASAP. Vic and Steve were super stars and must have ran up and down that range a few hundred times during the course of TBRC.
We were very fortunate that club members loaned us their golf carts and UTV to stay mobile on the range during the whole event. This was a HUGE factor in our efficiency.

We ended up having David Kerley with Tac Ready drive into town with his F350 to pick up a pallet of 60 cases of water from Costco for day two. Another 250lbs of ice was brought in to keep everything cool on Sunday for our competitors. Both days pushed about 100 degrees with some parts of the day being 100 +. With that being said, with the heat came less wind. When Sac Valley warms up, the wind just dies for the most part. .4 to 1 mil of wind @ 1K in the afternoon at Sac Valley is a nice day to shoot. There are days where even the fastest flattest hot rods will go 2.5 mils +

We finish up all the shooting almost 1 to 1.5 hours ahead of schedule for day 1!!!! As I track the status and progress of all the ranges, I was thinking to myself “are my ROs throwing stages out, or WTF?” There is no way we are 1.5 hours ahead of schedule. Well we were, and it was meant to be as my BBQ guy was early as well.
Everyone finished up the day with a nice plate of BBQ and a few cold ones.

Day 4 – Last day of competition.
We kicked at 0700 with a down and dirty shooters meeting and moved right into picture time. SureFire’s photographer (Thomas) did an outstanding job the whole weekend capturing everything in still pictures, while Eugene took care of the video side of the house. Both of these guys were extremely busy trying to get all the footage they can to document this epic event.

Alpha Squad started out the day shooting the short range and run & gun evolutions.

Bravo Squad started out on the 1K Range shooting the LR evolution.
These two squads flip flopped mid day.

Charlie and Delta finished up their TBRC on the steel range evolution.

Day two went a lil slower because I think the heat really wore everyone out. Some of my range crew has been out in that heat for the last 4 days by now, and it is showing. We still hit our marks, but we had the mover on the steel range go down for the last 1.5 shooters. We had 15 rounds left to fire at it, and it died. We decided to keep on trucking and figure out the mover for the last two shooters once we were done with rest of the COFs.

Conditions were pretty almost the same as day 1 with maybe another 1mph to 2mph of more wind on the long range according the weather stations we had on hand.

As we started to finish up all the shooting, I got a call on the radio saying there was a medical issue on the short range so we rolled immediately. Shawn and I were on scene in less than 2 minutes, and Jason (our medic) was there maybe 3 minutes after the call. One of our competitors went down due to the heat so we had to get him hydrated and cooled down. His squad mates did a great getting some water on him, and in him to help his body cool down.

After Jason checked him out, the competitor was able to finish up the last two stages of the TBRC. We have never had the need for our medics during TBRCs, but I was dyam glad to have Jason a few hundred yards away when we did. Jason and Rob G did a fantastic job making sure our competitors were good to go.

Now for our mover situation: With 1.5 shooters (15 rounds about) left to be shot on the mover, there was no way I can throw out a stage that might make or break 75 other competitors. After all the COFs were done, Jimmy C-Note (our engineer) went down range to see if he can’t get the mover going again. I got on the radio with the two competitors and explained that if we are unable to get the mover going in the next 15 to 20 minutes, I would have to ask them to take the hit on the mover stage. As a competitor myself, I completely understand and expected the ass chewing that was about to come after informing them I may have to 0 them for the stage due to OUR mechanical malfunctions. I was pleasantly surprised that Roger Cordes (Las Vegas Shooter) said “no problem, I am just here to drink some beer and hang out”, the other shooter Gustavo (NorCal shooter) asked if he could just keep the two hits he had before it died on him during the COF. No bitching, no whining, no crying at all from these two gents. I really appreciate them for having good sportsmanship even though they had every right to fire me up.

Jimmy was able to work his magic and got the mover up and they were able to complete the match like everyone else. Roger ended up getting 6 hits (60 points is HUGE) and Gustavo got 5 hits I believe. Those points are very valuable in such a tight match as this one. I was very glad that situation worked out. Jimmy is the MAN behind all of our movers. He built both the cable and remote steel mover for our club.

Final scoring: No real issues, maybe a few typos and minor things like 4 hits vs. 5 hits type of things. The ladies in our scoring trailer did a fantastic job in keeping record of all the paper targets, and stats. Shaina is my “go to” for keeping our scores straight. She has been a part of 5 TBRCs now, and has done a fantastic job. Matt McGinnis built me a bomber scoring system that spit out all the stats needed to take care of the many awards we had to give out.

There was a small delay when we blew the breaker on the generator due to the laser printer and everything plugged into one outlet. That knocked us back about 30 minutes on our awards ceremony.

Awards and Stage Winners:

AmericanSnipers.org rifle raffle was done by Shawn Hughes (Marine SS with the 1/5) and Mark Hartwell of Storm Tactical/ASO. After they drew all the numbers, the big winner was Michael Nitzschke of
Bravo Squad! He was the lucky winner of the 8500.00 ASO Rifle Build!!!

Fastest Shooter went to Jacob Denny with a time of 22.74 seconds to hit 4 8” plates at 550yards and a 6” stop plate @ 330yards.

Top 308win goes to Tyler Hughes with the 1/5 SS Platoon

Top Steel Evolution Shooter goes to Francis “The Animal” Kuehl

Top Long Range Shooter goes to Brian Sanders

Top Female goes to Regina Milkovich. We should have just put her name on the award from day 1. She is no doubt the top female shooter in this game.

Top LE/Military goes to Shannon “The Python” Kay

Top Short Range had a three way tie with Terry Cross, Richard Emmons, and Patrick Morris.

Top Shooter running a NightForce Optic - James Jefferies won 250.00 in cash from Nightforce.

We had several raffles that went on before the final awards were given out, but I was buried so if someone can post who won what, that would be awesome.

Top 5:

1st Place Winner, Francis “The Animal” Kuehl. This is Francis’s 3rd TBRC win. I am just dyam glad he wears our club colors.

2nd Place Winner, Jacob “Red Hat” Denny. It was the cherry on top for me to see one of my best friends finish so high in this event. Jacob has been working his ass off for 3 months training for TBRC and it paid off. To get this lazy SOB to point bullets is saying a lot! LOL

3rd Place Winner, Patrick Morris. This was my first time meeting Patrick, and I have nothing but good things to say about this young gentleman. Personally, I think it’s the bangs….just sayin. I don’t think Patrick is even old enough to buy beer yet right? I can’t wait to see what happens with a few more years under his belt. He is going to set the house on fire!

4th Place Winner, Johnathan Berry, very solid performance from a person that has never been to our facility. Good shooting and I hope to see you on the line soon.

5th Place Winner, Matt McGinnis. Matt was handling a lot of home stuff over the last several months with no time to train up, and told me he was just hoping for a decent showing. I would call 5th place finish in this field of shooters pretty dyam good.

Top 3 walked away with custom rifles, suppressors from SureFire, and a custom engraved knife with the TBRC logo on it from SureFire.

With the 100K + Prize table, guys down deep were walking away with very nice prizes for their efforts.
After all 77 competitors, our range crew went through the table. After the 45 man range crew, our competitors went through again. We STILL had stuff on the prize table that we basically told everyone to grab something from the items left over.

I want to say thank you to all the competitors that were able to make this event, I know it cost a nice chunk of change and personal time to come out for one of these big events so we appreciate everyone joining us this epic match.

Our range crew went above and beyond this last weekend. Those that have seen our range crew work understand what I am talking about. Those that have not been to a TBRC cannot fathom the amount of work, pride, and dedication these guys and gals have in making our event a successful one. About a dozen of us stayed behind to clean up the staging area on Sunday, and were not off the range until dark. Everyone pitched in and everyone helped each other out to make this TBRC the most successful one yet. You guys are rock stars and you’ll never know how much I appreciate you.

The generosity and support from our sponsors this year was just over the top. I can’t begin to express my gratitude to our sponsors. All I hope for is that we (NCPPRC) made you all proud to have your name associated with our organization and event. Without your support, we would not be where we are today. Without your products, we would not be able to shoot the way we do today. I am just glad a lot of our sponsors were out there to witness firsthand what they help build.

Nightforce our Premium Optic sponsor came through huge on the prize table and support. They sent out two F1s 3-15s for backups just in case a competitor experiences an optic malfunction. I was sure glad we had them on hand because Gustavo did have his optic die on the 1K range and needed to borrow one of them. Nightforce was also kind enough to pay for the BBQ that fed about 150 people on Sunday as well.

I would also like to express my thanks to May and Derek of SureFire. When I approached them about the concept of a TBRC SureFire Invitational, I honestly didn’t think they would go for it. Come on now, it’s SureFire! They can basically work with anyone they choose to work with. To my surprise May and Derek gave the project a green light and off we went.

Everything that was promised was delivered on time or before schedule. Every expectation that was met or exceeded. For the most part, SureFire went above and beyond to ensure we had an epic event. I honestly do not know what the final cost on their end of this event yet, and we probably will never know due to the long hours May spent with me planning and organizing it. In the middle of the project Derek was no longer with SureFire, but still called to assure me that everything will move forward as planned.

May is a true rock star and played a key role in the success of this event. Not only did she have SureFire business to deal with, she also had a wedding to plan, got married a week before, and STILL made it up here for the shoot as planned. She is truly PHS.

SureFire is in the process of producing a video of the highlights of TBRC. Once that is completed the raw footage of the entire event will be handed over to Michael Victor of Play Creative TV to produce a video of the entire event.
From a match directors standpoint, what more can a guy ask for.
We had the SureFire brand on the event, we had the strongest field of shooters ever assembled for an event, we had a $100,000.00 + prize table, sponsors and reps from all over come in, and a world class range crew to execute the plan we put together. People asked where I want to go from here with TBRC, the simple answer is “there is nowhere to go, we’re there.”

In closing, I am very proud and honored to have been able to lead this club and event over the last 6 years, but everything good must come to an end.

There will not be a 2013 TBRC like in the past, and we do not even want to think of 2014 yet. NCPPRC has pushed hard since 2006 to get where we are at, and as a club we have decided it is time to chill out, recharge the batteries and re-evaluate things in 2014.

I do not make the call if we have a TBRC or not, it comes down to the members of NCPPRC if we do one because we all understand that it is the dedication and efforts of many that make our event what it is. People that know us know that we only roll first class, and never half ass with anything we do.

I’ll still be shooting matches, and we will still have our club monthly events, however all major projects and events have been taken off the 2013 calendar. We’re spent, and it’s time to chilllllax. I have been blessed to meet and make so many friends all over the country in this sport, and it has been a great ride.
Thank you everyone for your support and words of encouragement over the years, I hope to see you on the line soon.

Vu Pham – TBRC 2007 – 2012 Match Director

NCPPRC would like to thank Mr. Nathan Webnar for giving up his weekend to help out on the NorCal range crew. Nathan spent two days behind a spotting scope to help ensure we catch every hit or miss possible.

You're the only so cal guy with a range crew shirt and a red hat. Don't let James try to jack you.

Vu. There are a couple of people that have their caliber listed as "0". I am assuming that that means none was specified?

Thanks for cross posting and I hope that the vid gets posted on YouTube....

Vu, looks like A and C on 2nd relay really evened things out. Looks like it was the right decision and the top shooters ended up on top.

Steal Range made for some big shifts in scores. I know I tanked a few stages that killed me in the steel ranges. Dang standing stages always kill me too.

I have a lot of ideas how to shoot well positionally. It's the execution I struggle with. 2,000 rounds a month could help.
