This is the email I got from them. We had alot of fun last year. Come check it out. There on Facebook to, Polo 3 gun.

Dear shooters,

It might not seem like it with the cold weather outside, but Polo 3 Gun's 2015 season is just around the corner. We are back with 4 matches planned for the season. Mark your calenders for:

April 26th

June 14th

August 23rd

October 18th

If you haven't heard, 3 Gun Nation has changed up their rule set for 2015. Division names have changed, and rules pertaining to each division have changed somewhat. http://3gunnation.com/club_series/rules Please follow this link, and read up on the new rules. Polo 3 Gun will be running Unlimited, Practical, and Factory divisions. We will not have a "Heavy" division this year. Attendance was low for Heavy in 2014. Another issue we had was steel targets for rifle. We used rifle steel for our August match, and the Heavy rifles damage the steel we have. We plan to use more rifle steel for 2015, and we can't afford to buy new rifle steel every match. Sorry to the shooters who like to shoot the Heavy division.

We are going to continue running our point series. We are going to keep the the same system we used for 2014. Each match will earn you points based on how you finish. Your best 3 of 4 scores are totaled together to figure the top 10 for the season. These top 10 shooters will take part in a shoot off after the final October match. The top 10 will receive gift certificates based on their performance in the shoot off. We didn't advertise the pay out last year, as we were unsure if we could pull it off financially, but we will do it again for 2015. $350 for 1st, $250 for 2nd, and $150 for 3rd. The total purse was over $1100, with the remaining money split up for 4th - 10th.

Another thing we are very excited about is the new junior shooter point series. We didn't have many junior shooters last year, and we'd like to change that. Junior fee will be half of regular fee. Juniors will compete, and score for a separate point series that will also have prizes at the end of the year.

We are going to do another shirt fund raiser. I have attached 2 pictures of the new shirts. These are more of an "everyday" shirt than last year. Price will only be $20/shirt. Please reply to this email with how many shirts, and what sizes you'd like. We will get a list, and have them at our first match. If you're an in between size fit, order a size up. Profits from shirts will go right back into the matches. Prizes, plaques, targets, props, etc.

Other than that, we continue to run our matches much like last year. We will keep the same start time of 9am, with registration starting at 8. Lunch will be provided, plaques will be awarded each match. We are working with sponsors currently, and hope to have great prize tables again.

You will get another email when preregistration is open for the April match. Usually 4 weeks prior. Our email list is everybody who has shot our matches. If you know somebody who is interested, but hasn't shot a match, have them email us so we can get their name on the list, or forward it on.

Sincerely,

Polo 3 Gun
