Title: Good Things Happening around the GAF Muster
Post by: Major Matt Lewis on September 20, 2005, 06:53:53 PM: Now here's the deal, I have a love/hate relationship with the GAF Muster. It takes a lot of time, effort, blood, sweat and tears to put on a quality shoot for you folks and I kind of run it as a one man show. I handle all the marketing, the stage design, basically the 4 B's (to those who remember their military training). So a lot of me goes into the match personally. And to be honest, I kind of get down in the dumps when I take the time to do all of this and a few applications trickle in or something else, and I swear that "I will never do this again...." But then something happens to raise my moral through the roof. I get a blizzard of applications (Mind you, all is realitive) and prospective sponsors, start proactively contacting me. Without going into specifics, I MAY be close to selling all of my sponsorships for the match.

So what does that mean to you the shooter, everything. I sell sponsorships for product donations so I can turn those around as door prizes. So that means in short, that I have multi-thousands of dollars worth of prizes to give back to the shooter's who support this great event.

So I wanted to personally thank all those who are able to attend this year and to those who are thinking about it, check out the link: http://www.lone-gunman.com/Muster/

Don't worry, with the ammo count Major Matt has, you'll have plenty of practice on the clock ::)
I've been casting boolits and am reloading for the match ammo so I have it done in time to ship it. I reload and then sew for awhile, then reload, then sew.
Trouble is: I'd rather reload than sew ;D

Post by: Kayleen on September 23, 2005, 09:30:58 PM: Lou,
I know exactly what you are saying. I too cast, reload and sew. But I prefer to sew and design our clothing more than reload. They both rate right up there as long as I don't have to do dishes.
I look forward to meeting you also, we should have a great time in Kansas. Those guys are great to be around.
