Is there anything that one has to join to participate in the steel challenge matches? Anything at the local club, or national/state level?

I have only shot steel once, but there was no mention of it. As a matter of fact, I think the whole "outlaw" part of Outlaw Steel refers to it not being a part of any organization. You do get a break on match fees if you join the local club. I think it is $20 a year and it pays for itself pretty quickly so you might as well.

I have shot IPSC a few times and was shooting ICORE pretty regular for a while and the national organizations were only mentioned in the context of you having to be a member of them to shoot in state and regional matches and to get qualified. Never was sure what getting qualified meant or what it would do for me. Needless to say, I am still unqualified. Just ask my wife if you don't believe me.

Hammer...As I've had it described to me....join team Magnolia for $20 for a break on match fees...think most matches are $5...You'll burn more than that in gas getting to Byram from the yazoo.

Cliff will have to weigh in on the "qualification process"...I'm sure you have to shoot a certain number of matches to get your ticket punched...

I hear ya Terrybalderidge...LOL...I'll be right there with ya...You'll find my name at the bottom of the scores!....in a few...It will be fun giving it a go... The beauty of being 50 yrs old...nothing to prove! Anything I can do to get better, I'm all for it.

Hammer you gotta get Cliff to hang out a bit more on the forum :lol3:
