We shot our second group match of the year this weekend, The Bob Dorton Memorial Four Gun. The match is named for one of our club members who was dedicated to the range. Bob Dorton drove his tractor to move and set up the frames and moving backer system. With his loss , no target crew, and no one else getting any younger, the frames proved to difficult to move and set up. The decision was made to build light weight frames out of aluminum and go to an electronic baker system. With the help and design guidance from Greg Wilson and Lane Buxton. This system allowed for easy set up and range operation, the down fall was the NBRSA does not allow an E backer, so the matches became unregistered.
Here is the new frame
Notice the sensors in the corners and the hub in the middle. The hub transmits the data back to the tablet
Here is the view from the tablet
