Dear .22LR BR Followers:
To answer the question on everyone’s lips, YES, we will be holding a .22LR 50yd Bench Rest Fun Shoot next Monday, Sept 7, Labor Day. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate the unofficial end of summer than by spending time at the range in the company of friends and fellow shooters.
What can I say about our friend the wind? Moody? Many participants commented as they arrived at the range how bad the wind was in town, and these conditions continued through the first 6 flights. The last three, however, were shot in relative calm – there was still wind, and it was switching directions, but the velocities were low and the switches were not sudden. You have to believe that the wind is our friend.
We logged thirty-one matches today, only two in irons and 29 in scopes.
There were no new shooters today, but we did have a visit from one of the club’s “remote members (Colorado),” Dave Resch. Visitors are always welcome. Hopefully this brief encounter will get Dave (and all other visitors) interested in participating – no experience is necessary.
My Match Director thanks to all who helped with any and all aspects of the meet. I certainly could not do it by myself. And thanks to all who participated from the firing line. It has been a good season so far. Let’s plan on a strong finish. There are only four matches to go.
