Dear Fans of SB BR Shooting in Humid Conditions:
Clichés, like stereotypes, are clichés because they are often true. For instance, “If you don’t like the weather, …” And today’s weather showed the truth in that. Dead calm at 1500 gave way to torrential rain and wind by 1515 then returned to calm by 1530 with occasional rain drops and a lightly switching wind.
Given the windy conditions of the last four matches, these conditions were a welcome relief, even considering the humidity.
There were 27 scores logged in today’s .22LR 50yd Bench Rest Fun Shoot, five with irons, 22 with scopes (one was a DNF).
One new shooter joined our ranks today, 11 year old Grady Hopkin. Grady and 12 year old MacKenzie Smith are very welcome youthful additions to the firing line. Hopefully we will see more of them (and others) in the second half of the season.
Many thanks to all who helped, and to all who braved the humidity and the threat of bad weather to shoot. You are all to be congratulated for your interest and stamina.
This was the 11th match in this season’s 23. Next week we will be “over the hump.” Don’t let the chance to compete slip away.
