Ten shooters and Benny gathered at the range this morning amid gathering storm clouds and the threat of heavy rain. Benny did not shoot and brought his grandson out to the range with him for a visit. That is a fine lad you had there Benny and he has a good sense of humor too. I wonder where he gets that?
We set up the course in front of the covered sight in range due to the pending inclement weather and that was a good call as about a third of the way into the match, we got a very heavy downpour that would have ruined the morning had we been shooting in the woods. We had 7 shooters in the PCP class including two new shooters that Bubbie recruited into giving field target a try. Welcome to Johnny M. and Lawrence B. Please come out and give it another go, it was a pleasure meeting and shooting with you both. There were two shooters shooting offhand class and one shooter in the piston class. Thank you to all that helped set up and pick up the course.

Our next match will be September 6, 2008 and will be the final preparation match for the folks going to the nationals in Kentucky the following weekend. I say we set a 40+T course to give these guys some good practice in the woods if possible.
