Massachusetts Rifle Association - "America's Oldest Active Gun Club" had our first Field Target match of the year yesterday. It was about 5° in the morning and warmed up to 29° by noon. We had 4 hardcore FT shooters make it out for the match and had an awesome day despite the cold. The Sun was out keeping it a bit warmer, lol. We shot 17 lanes for a Total of 68 shots.The wind was gusting at about 10 - 15mph with occasional lulls. A good time was had by all.
So things started with John Eroh borrowing my gun, and forgot his bum bag and shot half the match with the gun loose in the stock. We finally figured out why he was missing dead low at 6 O'clock with great wind calls. So kudos to John for having shot as well as he did with so many rifle issues, it was definitely a challenging day.
A big Thanks to the guys for helping me dig string out of the icy snowand wrap it all up at the end. Once again the Flop Over targets preformed perfectly.
