Here is what the match will consist of. It will be fun as hell!

TIGER VALLEY TEAM MATCH 09
JUNE 27-28, 2009

Here it is, those who have hunted people for a living know that anyone can be taken, especially when alone. No matter how bad you are, you have to eat and sleep sometime. Lets say, just for the sake of argument that some terrorist sneaks into the country and sets off a nuke in a major city you happen to be living in. What do you do? If your smart you probably stay put. Getting on the crowded highways would be crazy, giving the fact that initially you won’t have any idea which way to run, or for that matter where to run to. Being alone you will have to contend with gangs of social misfits that are looking to gain an advantage with the current situation, much like the “LA” riots.

If you’re one of those who have thought through this type of thing, you have a plan. My plan is to gather up my close friends and move in strength, using small unit tactics. Your team should be small enough to move easily, but large enough to protect itself, hence the Tiger Valley Team match.

We will do 6 stages on Saturday and 3 on Sunday.

Stage #1 Neighbor hood assault

The goal of the mission is to move through the neighbor hood engaging bad guys as they appear. The 4-man team starts at designated point facing a low crawl. On the timer all members move through the low crawl, with all gear. After this they will climb through a window of a house and move into a yard where 2 shooters will engage pistol targets and 2 will engage rifle at 50 yards. After all targets are down all team members will move back to neighbor hood and climb the fence (8 foot tall) into the next backyard. After all members have gone over the fence they will move and engage pistol targets, (lots). Once all targets are neutralized unit will move back to the neighborhood and enter the attic. Once in the attic they will slide down the gas pipe and enter the last neighborhood where all bad guys will be taken out with rifles.

Stage #2 Member rescue

Team starts out with all members in start box. The goal of the mission is to rescue a downed team member who can’t walk. On the timer team will advance. While advancing, members will encounter several areas with hostile targets. Someone must engage hostiles for members to advance beyond each point. At least one member must engage targets, but how many is up to each team. Two members will move to shoot house, one will breach the door and the other will cover and engage any target available from outside shoot house. Member who enters shoot house will neutralize hostiles and start recovery of downed member. Downed member must be brought back to starting point for time to end.




Stage #3 Sentry elimination

Unit has to recover stolen food from gang members who have a fortified complex. Assault will start by eliminating a sentry in a 20’ guard tower 400-500 yards away. Once sentry is eliminated unit will move to a two-story building and eliminate all hostiles on both floors and surrounding the building. Once this has been accomplished unit will recover stolen food and head for safe area, (starting box).

Stage #4 Helicopter bug out

The unit has a chance to move to a new safer area by helicopter and must flee under fire. Unit starts in start box. On timer all members move to designated points and engage targets from 7 to 200 yards. On member moves to helicopter, but cannot engage targets until all members are on board. Once on board this member supplies support fire while helicopter lifts off, targets to 300 yards. Helicopter is on springs

Stage #5 Tank buster

The Soviets have taken advantage of the current situation and have invaded with armor. From the starting box, designated shooter will engage the tank commander and gunner of the scout vehicle and the commander of the T-62. Once this has been completed the entire team will advance and engage all targets they encounter while dragging a prisoner with them.

Stage #6 Low light engagement

Night has fallen and the hoards are assaulting your position. You will have to defend your position from hostiles while they are shooting at you. A radio controlled paint ball gun will track members as they move through obstacles, shooting bad guys.

Stage #7 Running man

The unit has been compromised and must evade and escape. Unit must move 120 yards through bad area as quickly as possible.

Stage #8 Zombies

The fall out has mutated some survivors. All team members will be on the 200-yard line and deal with the outcome of the crazy hoards…

Stage #9 blind stage

If I was going to be home I would come down and try to help out... I would suggest since it seems there is going to be shooting and moving that the team train together a little before the match... communication is going to be key for this sort of thing....

James, I can't commit due to work right now, but I will have a much better idea by the end of May. You might pencil me in as an "alternate". If nothing else, I'd be happy to assist in the preparations. Send me all the info and links please. I assume I can find that on Tiger Valley's website?

I will definitly pencil you in and hopefully you can make it as the fourth. Any insight would be helpful and appreciated. Here is a descriptive link from ar15.com:

I think it is from the gu putting the match together. Scroll down and you can find the description it is the same as what BucknRut posted earlier.
Here is Tiger Valley: pretty basic hopefully more info will come up later:

That is all I know for now. all of us will keep looking and post with more info when found.

Who is Hogzilla on ar15.com sounds like someone from the three we have?

I'm in the same situation. I'm usually traveling for work during this time period. I'd love to try the 3-gun out. We watched it enough to have an idea what works and doesn't.

Cool. I just find it funny. Hogzilla there bucknrut here. Your not named coyotekiller somewhere else are you? :lol: :lol: j/k

I figured put it up here for a little bit since part of the deal is we are running 6.8 only with maybe the exception of the long range precision. And if no confims broaden it. But it works the same

I check ar15.com like once every week or two so we should have plenty of time to let people from here make the decision. Guys from this forum are much easier to get along with anyways. I tried coyotekiller/slayer/yotekiller/slayer/mauler, but they were taken :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ok, do we have a fourth teammate?

I need advice on gear needed. The only hand guns I have are for carry and are all short and small. I'v got the 6.8s covered. But no .308 w/optics. Looks like knee pads would be helpfull after watching last weekends match. Does anyone have a short list of what might be most needed other than guns?

Well first I have a 22-250 that is a tack driver and a 300wm that will be a tackdriver. Bucknrut has a 270 he is pretty confident with so we might have a shootoff for the long range stuff.
We do not have a 4th yet we have two possible's that will have to check there work commitments closer to the time.
Your short pistols will work if you are confident with them and can shoot them well.
As far as ancillary gear you need the knee pads. mag holders for hand gun as well as ar mags. How you do this is up to you. I am thinking of a chest rig.
I have heard several grumble's and seen rules that if running a chest rig then your gun holster will need to be on it or on a drop holster not on your belt. If not running a chest rig then a belt holster is fine and all your mags are on your belt also.
You will probably need two holders for handgun and ar mags so you are running with 3 mags total. I think this would be a minimum. Then there would be somthing to hold shot shells.
I am bringing my Benelli for the shotgun part. From the sounds of it I don't know if the shotgun is a major factor they want you to have one for the team it look like for some door breaching and other things. If you have a pump or semi auto bring it I think all barrels have to be 26" or shorter.

If anyone else has info chime in.


The team stands as:

Well folks I regret that I have to back out of the match. Unexpected expenses are the culpret. Looks like no shooting or much flying for the next few months. I will ask around to find someone willing to participate.
