Posted by Gary P. for our match director, Ron Guiliano, the President of the Archery club who has been bitten by the field target bug.
Fledgling Lekatchka Archers Field Target Club held their match yesterday, the second of the year. Newly formed, the club uses the 55 acre Lekatchka Archery range located just off I-75 in Venice, FL. The archery range is located on Sarasota County property and is part of the shooting range there. The club holds monthly Field Target matches on the first Sunday of the month. Safety meeting starts 0830 with sight-in following. 0930 match start time.

From MD Ron.....
Hello FT shooters,
Big thanks to all that came to support us today. We had 14 shooters that shot our 60 shot match with a troyer of 30.17 which put it in the bottom end of the hard category. The weather held off today and was a cool 71degrees, mostly cloudy with zero wind by the end of the match. Attached are the match results compliments of our top gun Gary Palinkas ...... I guess he wanted everyone to know he was top dog today with a score of 52/60, great shooting brother !!! We also had a 4 way tie for 1st place with a score of 51/60 in the hunter class, great shooting everyone !!! The next match will be Feb 4th at Lekatchka, mark your calendars. Hope to see you all there.
Thx, Ron G AKA, EMD2
