Field Target Match, this Sunday March 18th, 9:00 am Concord Ca

[Pistoleer]

 
We will hold the match at the USI Action Pistol Range, where it is normally held, this Sunday at 9:00 AM. Those with extra energy and a devious mind are invited to assist in setting up the course, around 8:15 am.

First 10 arrivals get to practice in BAY 1 - the rest should set up in the other bays as you arrive.
What's special about this match? We've increased the number of targets, number of forced positions and distances. We'll be introducing an optional event for the season- "Predict your Score". Shooters who want to participate forecast their score before the match. The shooter who lands closest to "his/her/undeclared" score at the end of the season wins a prize. Shoot off for a tie.
NOTICE: The big reveal for the grand prize will be at this match- you won't want to miss seeing what the winner of the Predict Your Score will receive!
Weather is predicted to be sunny with highs around 60 degrees and 7 mph winds.
There will be bottled water supplied.
Rifles are strictly limited to 20 fpe.
.177/.20/.22 caliber with lead pellets only.
We have PCP (Open) and Spring divisions, WFTF, Hunter and Pistol.
Hunter classes may use buckets and sticks- scope power is limited to 16X or scopes dialed back to 16X for higher power scopes.
We shoot in squads of two and three. Eye protection is required for both shooters and spectators. Cost for club members is $10.00 and guests are $15.00.
Juniors under 18 with a member are free.
I have a loaner PCP if someone wants to come out and give FT a try. Let me know via email ahead of time.
Ladies and juniors are encouraged to attend to experience what the excitement is all about.


All shooters must sign the 1 time USI liability waiver form located on line here prior to shooting a match at USI:
http://unitedsportsmen.com/ waiver/
United Sportsmen — Northern California's Finest Multi Purpose Shooting Facility
unitedsportsmen.com
Northern California's Finest Multi Purpose Shooting Facility
It is free, signed online and is a one time procedure.
After signing the waiver, all shooters are required to obtain a USI "Blue Card" available for free at the club house.
You must have your Blue card with you. Get one at the club house before the match. USI is now charging a $5.00 replacement fee. I suggest you take a picture of it and store it in your mobile device. We will be checking for Blue Cards- again, no charge, but it must be in your possession.

Sadly Mother Nature and work will conspire to keep me away from the match on Sunday.  Not that I've had a chance yet to shake off the layers of rust accumulated during the off season.

I hope you all have a great match.  See you at the next one!

Results!
The cold morning weather quickly left bringing intermittent clouds and brilliant sun on Sunday.
The match had a good turnout, 22 shooters, all with great skills and a willingness to help with the chores that inevitably crop up. From painting targets, to pulling the wagons full of metal and brick targets out to the bays, everyone did what they could to set the stage.
And what a stage it was! The match had distance shots, through swirling tunnels of wind. Three off hand/forced forced position lanes kept everyone honest- there wouldn’t be a perfect score today!
But there were also targets with generous Kill zones, at reasonable distances, so every shooter could score and hear the thwack of the pellet off the paddle as their target rocked back.
 We announced the prizes for the “Guess Your Score” Tournament- Winner is the shooter participating in 3 or more matches, and gets closest to their predicted percentage of Kills.

Plus two sets of Gunsmith screwdrivers and more to come.
