Very nice job guys !!!
The week and a half away with my wife after Oregon State GP was time well spent .. epic 1665 mile trip on roads and byways less traveled.
We'll join the ranks next month once again & hopefully revisit that Pistol on the Rifle course match up with Martin O that was missed in July ;)

Here we are late summer and a LOT going on in the FT universe, The WFTF world championship is South Africa, Pyramid Cup in Ohio yet we manage to draw in 21 shooters this August 27th Sunday. * We have 2 frequent SVFTC shooters in SA this event Cameron k & Lonnie S whom both are on the USA national team !!!
We get started just past 7:00 am with an early gathering of the required gear from our on site storage area. About 4 of us get going from lane one and go on down the lanes setting 2 targets each for ( 40 shots ) Lanes 11 to 14 we set 3 targets per lane & shooting these remaining at ONE shot per target for 12 more shots. ( 52 in total )
Good bit of practice getting the crew to get some one shot experience .... yea a tad more mental game.
Practice runs a good 45 minuets as late comers stroll in finally getting practice finished up @ 9:30 Shooters meeting, Accolades said on the success of Cameron K & team USA in Africa ;)
We have minimal winds / breeze, yet there still there if paying attention and as such POI is indeed differing from POA enough to warrant some adjustment. As the match goes on this skill or lack of by the shooters present starts showing on the face plates . Yup ... read what happening and correct MORE so than those before you, or not ? Lol what a game !!!

As we had stated a couple weeks ago .. With Cameron K's big win at the WFTF Worlds last month that the SVFTC would honor his accomplishment by having a special club match this month. A news letter went out to the members at large asking for those who had them .. SHOOT A SPRINGER at this match. All said of the 20 persons present we got 6 to take on the steel FT quarry ( Cameron among them ) with rifles that go BOING !!!!
Todays set up was full 15 lanes, 2 targets per lane with 2 shots per target for a 60 shot total. Lane 15 was offhand for 4 shots on our infamous Bell targets. Thud or Ding !!
The early crew showed up and helped get everything done prior to practice, which lasted @ 1/2 hour as the last minuet stragglers rolled in.
Gathered up the boyz and spoke of Camerons success abroad, he spoke giving all a personal perspective for a spell. Shooters meeting and we're off & shooting a tad past 9:30

Once we finished up the crew took down the course in near record time, all the blocks on the trailer and targets to there storage boxes. We converge back to our shooting area and have a nice light lunch of Meat/Cheese rolls, Cocktail shrimp, Potato and Pasta salads, cookies and refreshments. * This Lunch was Donated to the club by Conrad R and would not take $$ reimbursement ... SO THANK YOU CONRAD !!! It was really tasty & enjoyed by many.
The days shooting scores get announced. Some stay for a couple hours after and shoot for fun with us clearing out a tad past 3:00.
Until NEXT MONTH and the seasons final match on OCTOBER 22nd .... stay well, practice when you can. We'll see you all again then for some more FT fun !!
