Tuesday about 2:00 pm we have thirteen good shooters registered for the match this weekend. I have just received a call from Richard Allen who has had to cancel due to health reasons. That has us at seven total spots left with two of them being possible bench spots. If we end up with less than twenty registered shooters, I plan to shoot the…[Read more]

Plans are to take a max of twenty good shooters. I also plan to make only four bench spots available. With twenty shooters registered, we would be looking at five times three…[Read more]

Great to see everyone today to kick off a new season at Reese Bottom. I have updated the Home Page and the Results Page. The camera battery died so we do not have the usual group of random photos. Kip tried but he said when he took a picture of Ron everything went dark. Congrats to Chase and Barry for the W’s. Chase even gave himself a…[Read more]

Check out the time and date. Going to be wetter than I thought. If you are traveling in a two wheel drive vehicle, stay on the rocks in the drive, we will work around you. There is a little larger rock pad across from the porta potty. Off limits to four wheel drives. Might not be a bad idea for someone to bring a tow rope. WWE

Well, our dead period is about over and it is time to start thinking about the upcoming match. Remember to get yourself registered by Thursday February 16 at 7:00 pm.

Continued. If you register another shooter, please remind them that they are responsible if they are guilty of hitting the electronics. I do not see this as a problem, but you never know.
We will pre-register here in the forum for all matches. As always, I will announce the monthly matches around the first of each month and close the…[Read more]

We need to expand the conversation about the pairs matches. I honestly never considered this a team match, only something different. To everyone wanting to pick your partner, do you want an open division + ftr division or mixed rifles? I’m thinking one or the other.
I will never agree for anyone to be left out, but me, so we have to allow for…[Read more] -

Richard and Brett thanks for the comments. What I thought was a mass email turns out to be a public notice to those that log onto the website. I hope that when you logged on the yellow notice appeared across the page. I am trying to reach all of the good shooters that have gotten out of the habit of attending the matches and invite them back.…[Read more]
