Dear Fans of Challenging Winds:
The 18mph winds forecast to blow all afternoon did not did not materialize, in fact, as we set up for today’s .22LR 50yd Bench Rest Fun Shoot it was eerily calm. To take advantage of these conditions, we called shooters to the line for the first flight about 20 minutes sooner than we normally do.
But our friend the wind did not disappoint. During flight 5 (we shot 10 flights total) the wind came up to such an extent that two targets were blown off the target holders. We took extra measures to secure the targets during the remainder of the match. They were needed.
Still, a good if challenging time was had by all.
Thirty-four matches were started, three in irons and 31 in scopes, but for various reasons only 32 complete, and one partial scores were logged.
We had one new shooter, David Smith (a friend of Dennis K,) join us today, and one shooter, John Shade, join us after a long absence. There are only two more matches this season in this series. Hopefully these two will be able to fit them into their schedules.
Many thanks to all who helped with any and all aspects of the match. The list of names is long, and I know I would inadvertently leave someone out if I printed it, so just know that your Match Director appreciates you. Thanks too to all who took their places at the firing line. You are appreciated as well.
As you will note, the perfect 400 – 40X score has yet to be shot. Maybe next week.
