Monte, I will be there also. With my shoulder I will not be shooting my 308 this year. Let the match director know I am coming. My shoulder surgery is scheduled for 7/19. So this will be like my last match of the year.

I think with the two of us in the sun on the last match it felt a lot hotter than 101 deg. I know when I got up, I went straight to my van and downed about a liter of water. I am still drinking water at home to replenish. Tomorrow I am bringing more Iced Tea in a thermos so I do not run out. Picked up more ice for the ice chest on the line with another pack of bottled water to get us through another hot day. We are going to keep everyone under the cover for tomorrow, moved two of the Shotmarkers down the line to use targets that will stay in the shade all day.

My scores, I should have just quit around noon today also.

When we went to the pits to pull down the targets, we looked at all of them. They all looked like we were using 12 gauge shotguns with improved chokes instead of rifles.

There were dust devils that had several flags pointing straight up to the sky.
