I hope everyone is ready for a great time in June, I wanted to wait until after the first of the year to get the ball rolling on this, but in the last few weeks I was getting calls and texts about it, so I better get after it!
We have a concrete firing line for 2023 not sure why it took me so long to do this!!!
The match this year will be June 15 thru 17 and the 18th would be a rain day.
The range will be open on the 11th thru the 14 for participating shooters to tune for the match.
If your on the fence about shooting this match, reach out to any of the past shooters, I think they will tell ya it is a one of a kind experience, where everyone is treated great, great food, awesome camaraderie and the evenings at the range make it all the better.
This year I have named Big Al and Lowitz as the social directors for the event.
The match will run the same as past years
16 target Agg at 1000 and 600
Top fourteener
Super 7 showdown
The rules possibly may change slightly, to be decided by weeks end
I will have a full description of the match and rules by next week for any newcomers.
As always, last years shooters get a jump on everyone entering , 150.00 deposit is due before feb 15
Starting feb 16 we will start taking entries as they come in, the remaining match fees will be due before may 15th
I will have Ms Sara get everything ready this week to send out to everyone wanting to enter.
