Silhouette match changes

Due to a low turnout at the last Sniper Silhouette match we held an impromptu pick up match with the members that showed up to help.  Targets were placed at 100, 200, 300 and 400 yards.  Each member kicked in $100 in a winner take all match.  We started at the 400 yard target and continued firing 5 shots at each target, no sighters in between each range, till all 4 targets had been shot.  Joel Dutra won when he edged out Mike Solida by 2 points.
  This format of hanging all 4 targets and competitors needing to be able to adjust for the different yardages on the fly worked very well.  We will be doing this for the remainder of the Sniper matches, except for the $100 dollars.  Match fee will still be the standard $10.

Stupid is as stupid does!

Once again we had someone shooting where you shouldn't.  Clay pigeons were in the target holder clips at the new 100 & 200 match target frames.  USE the practice frames, that is why they are there!  Also, there were several targets laying on the ground.  Pick up your targets when you are done shooting!
