Haters gonna hate. ;) However, most of the comments I have heard have been
positive.
The two biggest issues are one second per point down and fault lines.
I would have preferred that points down remained at 1/2 a second, but I can
live with one second per point down. I don’t think it will change the outcome
of matches much.
Fault lines will eliminate the subjectivity of cover calls, inconsistent
enforcement of which was a big problem. Some people are concerned that fault
lines will make it harder to engage some targets. This is true. However, I
think it can be addressed by good stage design.
CCP and BUG dimensions/weights changed to make them more realistic, eliminating
some gamer guns from those divisions.
The new target has a 4” down zero circle in the head box. This adds a little
spice to the game.
Everything else in the new rules is simplification, with many restrictions
removed.
So, as far as I am concerned, BAS will remain an IDPA club.

I'm seeing some hate and content in various places about some of the IDPA new

lease a suggestion by its members.
Am I missing something with the new rules that are making this to be harder
than it seems?
I know I have been to a match recently, but perhaps I need to come to a match
with the new rules and see for myself.
