[Steve Blair]

Day 1:
It started off as a warm, mild day in Coalinga and finished with a taste of tomorrow's wind and some thick mirage. Noma Mayo leads the sling shooters with a fine 450-28X, followed by Dennis Flaharty, 449-21X and Bob Gustin, 447-25X. F-T/R is lead by Niklas Montin with an excellent 442-19X, followed by Will McCloskey, 419-6X and Gary Atkinson, 409-7X. Steve Rader is ahead in F-Open with 447-25X, followed by Peter White, 446-22X and Steve Blair, 444-26X. The complete Day One results are attached. Stay tuned for the exciting conclusion tomorrow, same time, same station. [br]
Day 2:
The 2013 California Palma Championship is complete and there are new champions. Bob Gustin was both State Palma Champion and High Senior in the Sling category with 889-45X. Congratulations, Bob. Steve Raeder is the F-Open champ with 888-45X. Congratulations, Steve. Both shot well in sometimes difficult conditions. Niklas Montin won F-T/R with an excellent score of 871-29X. Congratulations, Niklas. Niklas shot about as well as the F-Open shooters on several relays. [br]
Many of the Northerners (California) will be heading up to Sacramento for March Madness where you can shoot as much as a human can stand.

Thanks Steve,
I had a great time scoring on Day 2when you, Pete and Steve R was shooting next to each other, while the wind was changing from strong left to right. Unforgiving winds and great shooting even made target pulling fun
- Gary was in my relay and at the other end of the line.
Thanks for pointers and ideas!

Looks like the Swedish f/tr team showed up ;D.Good luck Niklas see you next week at Sac Valley.

You should have come down for this event. Great match and we could do with some more F shooters.
See you Friday!
