2007 was the inaugural year for Pine Island Practical Shooters, part of the Pine Island Club, and accredited by the United States Practical Shooting Association, USPSA (MN13).

For USPSA, we needed a name, PIWPSCPractical Shooters was too long, so we just use PIPS, or Pine Island Practical Shooters, for our USPSA name.

in 2008 we have added a Saturday match once a month and we will host a Minnesota points match on Saturday June 14th.

Matches:

Weekly, Wednesday’s at 6:00 from May 14th through September 24th.

Saturday: Feb. 16th, Mar. 8th, June 14th, July 12th, August 9th, Sept 6th. Dates may change, please see main calendar for the latest info.

FAQ:

- We shoot Wednesday’s at 6:00 PM. Saturdays at 10:00 AM.

- As it is a volunteer sport, many people help setup and break down, Setup starts at 4:00 for those who can help. Many hands make light work.

- You do not need to be a USPSA member -or- a Pine Island member to shoot. We encourage both, and if you are a Pine Island member, you get a $2 discount for the matches.

- We do work out of a holster, so you will need a holster and 3-5 mag pouches depending upon the division you are in.
