Remarks:
We had 12 people attend the match. We had shooters coming from CT, NJ and MA.
The day was sunny with light winds.

Scott got there early at 8 am and he helped me setup the practice range. Appreciate the help, Scott.
The sight in range out in the open sun was exceptionally brutal. Wearing a shooting jacket was very uncomfortable and sweaty. The temperature must be above 90s at that range.

The woods were a lot cooler (mid 80s F) in the shade with light winds to make the leaves flutter on occasion. It was enough to make one miss if you aimed center and not hold one edge.

Brian had no such problems today shooting a 59 out of 60. He admitted on one misfire on the near target standing position. Excellent shooting, Brian. Keep it up.

For this match, we gave out Pyramyd Air gift cards to 1st, 6th, 11th and 16th or last places based on raw
scores regardless of class.

The results above show the PA gift card winners.

I would like to thank Bill & Cindy Milewski for providing coolers full of Gatorade, iced tea, bottled water, and snacks for the shooters as well as running the registration and updating leader board standings.

I would like to thank all the shooters for attending and help clean up afterwards.

Next match: August 28th Sunday

Thanks for the report, Leo. It was great to finally get down to shoot in the woods course, which seemed unique in having a kind of open understory. That made wind reading tricky and was good practice. I think I learned some more good lessons on temperature and range finding, and I really look forward to enjoying that course again soon.

It was a pleasure to shoot with you - awesome results!
