Figured i would try to offset some of the negativity! Please post in this thread of people that have helped you or done things behind the scenes as thanks for their unselfish work. I will start (although i am sure i am forgetting some people because i have had sooo much help)

In no particular order

Jesse- When i first started i would blow his email up with questions that he always answered and never hesitated to help me in any way he could, never made me feel like i was bothering him, along with always offering things to let me borrow or try.

Brad Smith - helped me with the best 3gun rifle i have ever shot that runs flawless!! i love my rifle, thanks again Brad!!!

Wes - helping me get into reloading and constantly helping me get better and driving me to ponca!!!

Feegee - helped me big time with my rental house, great guy with a great heart!

Kurt Miller- helped me with shotgun reloading!

Tony Wall- There aren't really people that i do business with that i trust like you. You are the only business that if you tell me a price i know it is a great deal and there is no hesitation at all!

David E - I have seen a lot of the work you do behind the scenes for matches and other things that other people don't appreciate. There are numerous things that you do that i can't post on this forum, but i hope you know i appreciate everything!!!

Feegee Matlock for taking the bull by the horns on the trophy's at the Okla Limited/Open State Championship.
Range Master Rowdy will be supplying the steel, and Feegee, took charge of the design, and getting them engraved.
Great job, and really appreciate it! BTW, you do have a trophy headed your way that you won the hard way. :D

The Match directors at the Ponca Range get big kudo's from me, for being willing to adapt to shooters requests on the fly, and being innovative in stage design.

Biggest of all kudo's is to all of the folks that attend our matches, and matches all over the midwest that are advertized on BoomerShooter. Supporting these ranges, only makes it better for everybody.

No doubt... And props to Feegee for all his offers to help!!! Forgot about the awesome trophy's
 
BoomerShooter patrons for encouraging gun owners to become shooters, more to the point shooting matches.

Jesse, Wall, Troy, Wes, Will, and David E for giving me tips during matches. Benjamin for also encouraging me and telling me I'm better than I know I am :). Accurate Ron, even though he may not know because I was eaves dropping as he helped other shooters at a match.

Jesse for loaning me his Glock 35 Limited setup so I could play with the cool kids at the OK Limited / Open Championship. Gotta get that back to him :).

Who would've thought I would Shoot in two State matches this year, can't much believe it myself.

The forum is full of great people who offer great advice, support, experience, and their time to assist anyone willing to learn.

What's not to like?
 
I'd like to add Marshall and the guys at TDSA...never felt more confident with my pistol than after I left there. Awesome Training!
 
Everyone here at Boomershooter gets big props. You all have helped me out since starting this sport.

Troy, Jesse, Tony, Burk, Matt, Mitch and many more have helped me out tremendously

Ben, big thanks for tje additional ammo at the last USPSA match at OKCGC,man I missed a lot that day

Tony, thanks again and again for your store for providing us with all the gear we could ever need to enjoy this game. I want first dibs on any stocks that become available. Lol. And thanks again for getting that 40 pro and helping me on learning to reload.

To everyone else I've met at matches and the watch parties, thanks to yall for welcoming me into the frat. I enjoy every second of it.
 
Mike Cyrwus helped me a bunch. The thing that he helped me most with was coming out of the closet. I think the rest of you unicorns should go see him too because this thread is a bit too much on the man love side of things.

Thanks Mikey;)
 
Feegee for helping me get my nerf bars welded up on my truck and let me borrow a couple shotshell caddies for the Tulsa match and being a good buddy to shoot with.

Kirk Smith for helping me get a load worked up with his chrono so I could test out different PF's. Let me borrow his 20g CZ so my daughter could shoot some Clays. Just a cool guy to shoot with and drink a couple beers with afterwards.

Tony Wall for helping me get my 9mm AR running smoother, helping me thin out my wallet with his pro shop goodies, loaned me his M1 for 3 gun comps before I got my own. Another fun guy to shoot with.

Jesse for loaning me some caddies a while back and giving me a few tips on the shotgun to run it smoother and faster.

Benjamin for helping out with anything he can at every opportunity and letting me whoop him at the Tulsa match :)

Cyrwus for giving tips and working out a trade to get my shotgun pimped out and letting my daughter smack you up for your foul language at the matches.

Burk for running the giveaway threads and being a very helpful guy to all newcomers to the sport.

There's more I'm sure, just drawing a blank right now.
 
Thanks to everyone on the site for all the informative post that I have learned from.

To Dennis, Jesse, Burk, KurtM, Matt and many others who have replied to my post.

To MichealJ, SGTDave, Jesse, Lance and Mike Cyrwus who I met at rockcastle. For not running me off and for answering all my questions.

Big thanks to Mike Cyrwus for saving me some shipping money by picking up my shotgun at roackcastle.
 
You guys are going to keep up the bro hug man love aren't you?

Here goes...

Trapr Swanson for answering my, "I want to get into 3 gun. Will my Ithaca model 37, Remington 760 with 3-9 scope and .22 browning challenger work" questions. And for pointing me in Kurt's direction. And for building me a kick as Red Neck Tactical Nova that helped me win $5k this year.

Kurt Miller for teaching me just about everything I know. And for working on just about every gun I own. And for filling my tummy with his home brew. And for bringing back okcgc 3 gun. And for being MD/RM at several major matches.

Mike Cyrwus for teaching me not to work on my own guns.

Chris Andersen for advice and pushing me as my training buddy.

Brandon DuBois for putting together this awesome place of man love and gun talk

All y'all for making this forum the most fun and informative place for 3 gun.

The moderators on this forum for keeping this show on the road.
 
I'd like to thank Phil Lambert...he made me a smoking deal on my rifle to get me into 3 gun, the rest is history...Thank you so much, I'll never forget it!

Seriously, I have just started shooting this year and it has been one of the best things I've ever been involved in...great people all over the place and that's what makes it fun...friends and gun powder, what a combination!
