Rendezvous 3.0 2023

Tome and Sara. Without a doubt are among the best match director’s and host I have ever seen. Hated to miss this But maybe next year things will be a little different. Planning to attend 600 nationals at vapor trail Love that place and the hospitality and all that attend the matches at the valley

Dave Kieffer, 16 target 600/1000yd combined score winner 757

8 target 1000yd score, 382

Dave was centered up all week! He put on a clinic
10 pts ahead of the next competitor in the 8 target
And 14 points ahead in 16 target

I don’t have last years results in front of me, but I’m Certain this was another 16 target repeat win

Congrats DaveIMG_4907.jpegIMG_4912.jpeg
 
Jason A Cohen, had the .284 shehane dialed in, Jason has been to all 3 Rendezvous matches, and made the Super 7, every time, it’s hard to do, you have to shoot 16 targets and then be in the Top 14 of the overall agg to get a spot at one of the benches, then shoot head to head against your neighboring bench sudden death to qualify for the Top 7 spot at that point , its a winner takes all , between 7 shooter at each distance

Jason also shot the smallest group at 600yd .645”

Congrats

Dave Way shoots small group at 1000yds, blows away the existing record with a 1.338” with a 49 for score

The pic puts a good perspective on the group
 
The whole 2023 Rendezvous 3.0 gang!

We had great weather at a match for once, temps were mild for us this time of the year, the winds were not bad at all but we did have quick switches, that the valley is known for, mirage was bad at times , no dam hurricanadors for once!
We hung 778 targets down range, not including all the tuning targets throughout the week, estimated 9336 rds down range for the match not counting a week of guys tuning. We had 2 screamer groups under a inch at 600yds
And 6 groups under 3” at 1000yds 3 of those were Screamers under 2.5”
The payout was 12665.00
We ate like kings all week! Had a live band that absolutely kicked ass last night
Breakfast this morning at the range and got all the campers headed home.

15 states represented
Pennsylvania, South Dakota, New York, Minnesota, Florida, Missouri, Colorado, Georgia, Montana, Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, North Dakota, Texas,

Very few changes for Rendezvous 4.0 in 2024

It will be a Wednesday, Thursday and Friday match , 100% yes vote

Almost a certainty it will be a capped match at 52 shooters, why? 1. It’s a fun event with 4 relays 2. Because I can and I don’t have to worry about the Carolina snitch
Format will stay the same guaranteed

There will be less rules as far as rest and rear bags go, let’s see what we can accomplish with these guns, I’ll have it posted soon
The sighter and record period will be a combined 10 minute period.

70 people and all smiles all weekend, zero drama, friendships made for life.

Rendezvous 4.0 get it on your mind!

Garret Lee and the Relics
Played 4 hours last night, they were outstanding, one hour of them playing and I already had them booked for next year.

I’ll have the complete results with equipment list and group photos up tomorrow morning, ms Sara is hardcore but she was done in this afternoon and is sleeping currently, and this guy doesn’t mess with the computer

My 3 Moms, making breakfast for all the dad campers still in the lot, 100% postive I would not be who I am or doing what I do without these 3 in my life.

I don’t say it enough, you three mean the world to me, the unsung hero’s, are always the mom’s.
