What a match. Great food. Venison as good as I have had, BBQ from Denise, awesome beans and slaw. Pulled chicken and spare ribs. Probably the most challenging conditions I have seen. It just never let up. Match ran really smooth. Really good turn out, 50 shooters. I had a great time. Congrats to the winners!

It was a pleasure seeing everyone this past weekend. As always, Al & crew put on a great match and I can't remember the last time I had this much fun. Thanks to Denise for the cooking and to Alex and the scoring crew! Congratulations to all the winners!

Al and Bob and so many many others pulled off the best shoot I ever went to. So much hard work and planning and organizing it amazes me. Thanks to you all.
