JULY 5, 2008

 

The weather was warm and the shooting was hot for our Fourth of July weekend shoot on the fifth.  Twenty five shooters enjoyed some mild but tricky winds.  Competitors were pretty evenly divided between prone and f-class with 13 and 12 shooters respectively, and the winning scores from each side showed once again that the skills and accuracy levels are identical.

On the prone side Buck Kliebert jumped to the top in the combined Sharpshooter/Marksman class with a super score of 592-29x.  Buck was shooting his new Porter built Palma rifle for only the second time, and showed that he will be moving up in class very soon.  In the Master/Expert class Rob Westfall was high man with a good score of 589-23x, followed by Dave Polan’s 582-18x.  Both of these shooters will be moving up shortly also.  The High Master class saw a new winner this month, with the appearance of Bill Jenkins in first place with a score of 593-30x and his brother Bob Jenkins taking the Prone Match Winner title with his score of 596-32x.  Congratulations to all and good shooting!  The competition is getting tighter every month.

The F-Class side proved to be just as exciting.  The F-TR class was won by Jared Louque, shooting his .308 tactical rifle to a winning score of 571-14x.  The F-Open class with nine competitors was once again our largest class.  Mark Miller shooting a Porter/Sittman smithed rifle in 6.5x284 for the first time took second place with a score of 594-25x.  First place was taken by Don Geraci shooting a 6x47 Lapua to a score of 595-31x.  The F-Class Match Winner was our own Whitney Simoneaux shooting the smallest cartridge (6-BR) to the biggest score of 596-38x.  Congratulations to all.

Special thanks to shooters on relay 3 for their work in the pits before and after the match.  Also thanks to Rob Westfall, Ronald Kliebert and Joe Mistretta of Palo Alto for their constant maintenance to the range, which helps make our matches so enjoyable.  Also thanks to our target crew, Gary Henry, Dave Polan and Joey Clark for prepping the targets for the match.  Finally, thanks to the shooters for supporting our little match and especially for your safety awareness.  We sure enjoy having y’all shoot with us!

Next match will be Saturday August 2nd.  The State Championship will be October 4th & 5th.  Hope to see you there.
