Part 1 will have results and part 2 will be photos.

I usually compile the data into a big table. It's also rather common for me to get requests for photos of score cards. Soooo, I'm going to just share the score cards. They have the equipment lists and hit and miss info.

We had great weather, slightly overcast, short sleeve weather, very little wind. It was a very welcome relief from the -7 nights and highs in the teens I've been having up here in the high country of Arizona.

This was the course of fire....Some pretty dang tough shots in there. For example, 3/8" kill zone at 20 yards?!?! That particular target would be a Troyer Factor 53.3 on the classic kill distance divided by kill zone basic formula. Ultimate? Certainly.

There are two basic cut-offs for power levels at these UFT matches, if someone is under 50fpe, they can shoot at all three targets (72 shot match) called 'the Full Monty." And if they're 50-100fpe, they shoot at the middle and far targets. Match staff chronographed everyone wanting to shoot in < 50fpe classes. And this is how that shook out...

Barbara P 49.32 fpe
Anthony T 46.45 fpe
Jesse A 43.59 fpe
Stephen K 42.12 fpe
Paul W 41.14 fpe
Bobby C 38.2 fpe
Steve M 38.2 fpe
Luis G 37.05 fpe
Cole R 34.84 fpe
Ben S 33 fpe
Cabe R 19 fpe

There were three competitors in this class. Bobby and Steve ended up sharing a gun, so that made the strange situation of all three competitors in this class using the NSA .20/18.9grain slug.
Scores here were:
Cole R 62/72
Bobby C 59/72
Steve M 53/72

Near and Middle Targets, Pellet Class
Just one competitor here. My son Cabe used his sub 20fpe .177 to shoot a 48 shot match. It worked out really well because this is the gun he has the most trigger time on, and it's simply set up for his (just turned) 7 year old frame.
Cabe 13/48

And his score card:

Thanks to Jesse A for the superb paint job on the targets. Me and Cabe really enjoyed looking at them through the scope.
Thanks to Ben and Tony P for setting up the course-lots of work.
Thanks to Stephen K for assisting in chrono and sign-in duties.
I'm sure there was other assistance to make it all run smoothly. Thank you!!!

Thanks to Peykan for letting my son check out the Cybertruck so closely. Made my little dudes day to get a ride and learn about all the cool stuff it could do.

Thanks to everyone for just generally being good people. Me and Cabe had a great time amongst you all. Good solid fun with a great bunch of people. It was a great Saturday activity and fully worth the 6hr round trip.

Feel free to add any vids or photos that you took during the match. Also, questions and comments are invited, from those that competed yesterday, as well as anybody interested in what we're doing here.

What a GREAT time!!!!!! Both Cole and I got to shoot with our son's.....Ok Daniel is just a little older than Cabe, but it was Daniel's first time shooting. Matthew, our younger son, gave Daniel permission to use his ghost that was at the house as long as he didn't break it. Brotherly love right there..... Daniel came up to the house, got some trigger time on bucket and sticks. Under the watchful eye of his mother of course and he had a great card. Maybe just maybe, if she would help me out, I wouldn't have had 2 lanes of goose eggs :ROFLMAO:

Maybe next month I will shoot my springer on the short course. I will need to figure out the dope out to 65 yards, but it might be fun:unsure:

Lots of fun so get out to your local competitions, bring a friend, family member and introduce them to a great time!!!!!

P.S. Great shooting dear :love:

Looks like some serious fun! My money is on the little guy with the blue hat!😂

Little dude in the blue hat most impressed me with his composure. Not very long ago he'd have meltdowns when he felt he wasn't shooting up to his standards. But he held it together and never got upset during the match. It went really well and he was a fun shooting partner.

Also, he didn't have the lowest knockdown percentage of the match.

🤣🤣🤣 He obviously has a great Dad! Enjoy the time with him now it disappears so fast.

I've been contemplating running my 20fpe .20 for the full 72-shot course. I think it'd be fun. I might have to pick an exceptionally low wind day for it.
LOL, don't be afraid I did it (unsuccessfully) with a .177. I must say, had I had my dope more accurate, I feel I could have shot 40. The 85 yd mark is where the .177 pellet becomes very unpredictable. I chose to sacrifice the four extra-long 99 yd shots. LOL, as it turns out, I missed many of the close ones. Most of the 65-84 yd targets I got. I had the tune 945-955 FPS 16.20 jsb, a slug-like pellet. The .20 caliber might be just a tiny better, which might be that last 20 yards.
