Well, I hate to say it, but this match did not
go well for our hostage plates. A lot of people had a problem with their
windage adjustments this day and it showed in the scores. Quite a few
good scores were ruined when the hostage plates were hit and ten seconds
were added for each hit. In fact, we had a new record for hostage
hits in one run. The dubious record was six hits! The person who holds
this record will remain nameless due to an uncharacteristic twinge of
sympathy on my part. Hopefully he will be back in July to make up for
his unfortunate performance.
In spite of hostages dropping like flies, we
had some pretty good scores. Adam Boyton had an incredible score of
54.21. Congrats Adam. You would think that he's done this once or twice.
Maybe I'll have to add some more difficulty to it to make it more of a
challenge to everybody. Unfortunately some people weren't able to
finish the course for one reason or another. Hopefully they have learned
something from this to rectify it ( a little more powder in your loads,
Scott?). Anyway, it looked like everybody had a good time shooting the
course. I hope to see everybody back at our next match, Saturday, July
8th at 10:00. Tell your friends how much fun you had and invite them to
check us out. We're always ready to welcome new shooters to our matches.
A special thanks go out to Kevin Morrison,
Dennis Nelson, Ron Kobel, and Rick Heyt for help in putting on this
match. Without them, it wouldn't have happened. Thanks also for
everybody who showed up to shoot. We hope you had a good time. If you have any questions you can contact me at pl8shootr@aol.com.
See you next month.
