Sad USPSA News

After many months of haggling with the River Bend Practical Shooters, who run the USPSA matches at River Bend Gun Club in Conyers, the club has decided to end the USPSA matches. Without ranting on the details, most of it was over how much money the club got paid per match. and from the shooters’ side, how many times the range access was trimmed back.

Honestly, this is a sad thing. I have competed there since 2008 and I love it. Plus, we hosted the USPSA State Championships in 2020 and 2021, and got a lot of accolades on it. Then last year they hosted another Level 2 match, the Peach State Championship, which drew a lot of top shooters from around the country.

As I live in Kennesaw, the hour drive to RBGC wasn’t bad. So now I am left with my other 2 matches, Cherokee Gun Club in Gainesville, or Talladega, both 2 hours away.

Or, I can shoot IDPA or Action Shooting at RBGC, but TBH after what the club Board did, I’m not leaning that way.

Oh well.
