INVICTA FT MATCH JUNE
I handed over the reigns of the shooters meeting as I had to go see a man about a horse, and because of that, I forgot to mention at the match, but this weekend marks the time of year when traditionally Roz Sumpter hosted his famous Good Old Boys two day matches, one of the reasons I moved here from California!!! Roz came out to chat with the guys, some made it out for lunch after. I would like to, as President of Invicta FTC to officially thank Roz for the decades he has put on FT Matches, here and in Michigan, there's a very good reason he was awarded the Meritorious Achievement by AAFTA. It has been awarded only seven times in AAFTA's history, and of the seven, three have been Invicta members, Roz, Cliff and Brad!
Ten guys made it out to shoot the match to near perfect weather, well it did warm up towards the end, oh and there was some wind that messed up scores for the sub 12ft lb participants...... Ray and Joe AND Grey came out and shot WFTF for the first time I believe, and show some promise. Bill decided today was his day to knock down the most, I guess high power with heavy pellets makes a difference in wind?
I think Ray said he tried the Dave Slade approach, and put his scope on the night before and hit the ground running, I can say that's always fun, maybe I need to go back to that?
I won a Road Runner face plate at the Cajun Classic this year, and Brad Troyer generously donated and installed his well proven designed mechanism, put it on lane four with the other Road Runner and Will E Coyote, of course it works perfectly and now is part of our club line up of targets, thanks Brad for this and all you do for the club!
Our next match will be June 22nd, hope to see you there!
God Bless
