If you join, we'll get you classified.

And take a whole butt load of pictures of you in the vest!!
(Still better than those purple pink yellow orange green spandex shirts the USPSA guys tend to like. If you think golf pants look silly, thar is a whole nuther level )

You beat me to it! I didn't want to wade into the fray here not knowing BossHoss himself, but I so wanted to ask if it were required code to show up looking like a NASCAR car with all the numbers, logos, flames, patches, stickers, tags and banners all over creation!

Not for nuthin Mike, but after Saturday's showing of the WSSC staff shirts I'm not sure you can say much

 

[sbcman]

If memory serves, the most common "shirt" I saw at USPSA matches was STI shirts- I mean, a bunch of them. I know all those guys, well probably none of them, are sponsored by STI so I don't know if it's a "buy our gun get a shirt" deal or if they had to buy the shirts.

You said it, though..staff shirts...not shooter's shirts! We wanted to make sure EVERYBODY, including the air traffic overhead, could see just who exactly was in charge And here I was fighting to get you, Jeff and Don a couple of shirts too!

Statement retracted, I want the shirt. Just give me a few more days to let my eyes come back to regular vision.

HA!!! We heard a few comments from Greg and others that you need to be careful looking at the shirt for too long in a dark room... it will mess up your night vision!

Fancy shirts are not required BUT every USPSA shooter knows that you have to wear one IF you want to win.

These shooting shirts have several purposes. Most are made of DRY TECK materials that help keep you cooler on a hot,hot range. I have a few shirts that are made out of this material and it does help. Mine are plain or match shrits from matchs I have shot.

STI shirts are part of their contingency program if you win your class at certain matches with a STI gun or frame AND have your STI shirt on you win $$$$$

The most important reason is the intimidation factor. Were a cool billboard shirt and when you trash talk your fellow competitiors they wilt away at your feet.


Really I think it's a even call on which is sillier Guys running around a range with billboard shirts on or guys running around a range in 90 degrees with a fishing/photo/whatever vest on while playing a game.

That would take a camera with a very fast shutter speed

Or worse, guys running around in vests with billboard shirts on underneath!


That's cool about the STI contingency deal.

And for all, I saw vid of Paul at the ICORE match in Michigan. I can assure you, no billboarding going on there Gotta say that team Bubber did have cool shirts though.

I think I'm hearing we need a Team INGO-SWI chapter match shirt.

I hear it as well, my friend. We need them in time for the Kolonel.

I hope you guys stay away from sheer this time. All those man nipples pointing about on Saturday just didn't do it for me.

Maybe we should have used pasters.

I don't know...spooked some of us to run fast enough for MA times

 

[DustyDawg48]

Reading my new copy of the IDPA Tactical Journal and what should appear but an article about attending/shooting a person's first major match. Not bad timing at all!

It is getting cooler out pretty quickly... everyone walking around with a couple half packs of Certs sticking out the front of their shirts.

Wish I could negative rep myself for bad mental images.
