Falls Township Rifle and Pistol Association in Southeastern PA will be holding our third Field Target match of the 2015 season on Sunday 9/20/15. Rich, Jim, Joel and I have planned an interesting course which should challenge experienced shooters but still have many lanes and targets where everyone can find success. We’ve set some new target locations on previously used lanes, set one completely new lane and set a course with more than usual (for us) long targets while selecting more targets with larger kill zones to offset to some degree the increased distance. We look forward to seeing our regulars and encourage anyone interested in Field Target to give our match a visit.
The full match program and details are pasted in below.
