Coming from the fellow that was 7th out of 10 so be cautious. Richard, your comment above about your first relay has me scratching my head. Fact: y’all shot early. Fact: the condition for that relay was the best of the day. For you to not have a good site picture at 50 power during the first relay seems odd to me. I know that conditions at…[Read more]

Good stuff fellows. Not sure all of the good shooters have ever been down range at Reese Bottom so I will talk about the flags a bit. There are four in all. The first flag is on the right and is lower than the others and completely blocked from the left. To me, not much value. The second flag is on the left at about 430 yards and is…[Read more]

Thanks Mr. Richard. Maybe one day others will realize that in order to occupy Position 1A as you do, all they have to do is share their experiences at Reese Bottom. One thing that caught my attention yesterday was the number of shot number 20″s that were 9’s. At least two that I remember were after nineteen cleans. Maybe #20 requires as much…[Read more]

Thanks Richard for taking the time to write your report every month. I wish more people would let us know something about their experience at our matches. I’m interested to know if anyone has an opinion on the Big Red Clock. Is it a factor[too short/too long/about right]? What about the food. Do we need more high protein/gluten free, etc?…[Read more]

Monday update: 11 am. Three spots available. One of the three could shoot from bench. I can make five benches work. Looks like a good split between the two divisions allowing both to be very competitive. Looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday. WWE

While not shooting the last match I spent much of the time watching what was happening during the match and got to thinking where we have come from and more so where we are going. One month from the June match I will turn 74 years old and am thinking that I do not want to do this forever. At any age, much less 74, we all know that there are no…[Read more]
