The weather on Saturday was virtually perfect for our friendly competition.  Temperatures were in the 70's and 80's until the very end when it broke into the usual 90's.  Wind was at most a very mild breeze which little or no bearing on the shooting.

We were happy to have  seven shooters with an honorable special guest all the way from Louisiana, Mike D! Glad to have you visit us Mike and hope your time in Boerne and at our club was memorable. Mike had the privilege of shooting with and sharing equipment with Robert D. for the match.

Last month I asked if someone could please beat Scotty H. and his Marauder but it seems almost too much of a colossal feat. Scotty took home another Boerne Lego Minifig trophy with a 54/60. Clearing 6/10 lanes can do that to a man. Nice shooting!  David T. was the gallant one, 4 shy of Scotty  posting a 50/60. Have to say that David’s first two lanes hardly gained him any traction but clearing 5 of the remaining 8 was nothing short of great shooting. What a comeback David! Robert D.took 3rd place with a 49/60. Nearly clearing the standing lane, Robert might be a dangerous silhouette shooter perhaps? Speaking of silhouettes, Glen D. is a well seasoned silhouette shooter but in his first season of FT, posting a solid 47/60 for 4th and one shot in front of Jim C.  Jim C cleared 4/6 lanes and took 5 for 6 on kneeling. Yours truly posted a 43 and our guest Mike D who shot with Robert’s rifle posted an impressive 41. FT is hard enough but shooting with an unknown rifle is even harder. Nice shooting Mike!!



a bit of club news…

The airgun schedule at Boerne is changing!

Field Target will remain in its current slot on the morning of the 3rd Saturday of each month.

We will now be shooting Airgun Silhouette after Field Target.

N50 will be moving to the 2nd Saturday of the month along with Airgun Schutzen.



This is not only a logistics and safety decision but also one for the shooter's benefit, as it provides a more relaxed and enjoyable time before, during and after their respective matches.

 

Our next FT match is August 17th and will be followed by airgun silhouette!



Save the Date :  October 19th and 20th!!!
