Scores attached for last Saturday match. We had 33 shooters turn out for a hot day. Congratulations to Tom Thompson for posting times so quick that I had to double check the score sheet to make sure it wasn’t a typo.

Every time I make stages, I try and draw a balance between difficult and easy stages. I’m always amazed at how fast some shooters still manage to blaze through these harder stages. This match has really started to attract some very skilled shooters.



Thank you all for the support and assistance with setup, RO work, and teardown. I might lead this thing, but it stays running because of all the assistance I get. It is most definitely not a 1 man job.



So, thank you for helping and participating. It wouldn’t be worth doing at all if no one showed up.
