MATCH REPORT
Good evening, fellow shooters!
We had a great day for a match! Some very light rain on the drive in to the Boerne Shooting Club, but otherwise, we had minimal wind and cool temperatures for our first match of the year! We were happy to see friends old and new. We had 3 shooters new to Boerne Field Target Club: Billy D, Scott C., David T., and David T is new to the sport of field target. Welcome! Also, Scott C. is our old friend from the Dallas area who made the trip to Boerne today. Great to see you! We also had two observers today: John and Michael. We hope to see you both shoot with us soon--next match maybe?

Robert thanked everyone who has supported BFTC over the years, especially Jim C. and Shepard. Shepard will be taking over the reins as the match director and he brings an energy and enthusiasm to the job which had long since left Robert. We look forward to the year to come! Coming up: Our Awards Match which got rained out in November 2022 is rescheduled for June 17, 2023. More details to follow in the months ahead.

After a brief safety meeting, the 60-shot match began.
