    I've been working on this for a few days now and I think it's finally running well enough that I can post it here.

    My goal is for this to be a one stop site for you to find upcoming shooting sports events. I started with many of the local matches that members shoot regularly, but I'm constantly working on adding more match info on a regular basis.

    I think the big key is going to be the filters. You can use them to narrow down the match info to exactly what you're looking for. I can add more filters as necessary, but I don't want it to become overwhelming. Also, the "Near" search is set to 100 miles by default, so it will show you all matches within 100 miles of the city or zip code you enter.

    Please feel free to offer any suggestions or tips. I'm completely new to building websites, so any and all input is appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the heads up. I just took that off the calendar and I'll put the individual matches back on there once I hear about them.

    The calendar website is still up and running, but so far ad revenue hasn't come close to covering the hosting fees.

    If you're interested in helping keep the calendar alive, please consider clicking this link before you buy from Amazon: http://amzn.to/2qaq3pI

    It won't cost you any extra, but I'll get a small percentage based on whatever you buy and that money will go to keeping the website up and running.

    Oh, I just needed a roll of TP...

    In that case, you're better buying local. Prime shipping is great, but it still takes 2 days to get there. May be too long for something as essential as TP.

    Well, true. My legs would be numb by then...
