Varmint hunter match south fork PA

[davidpatton]

Does anyone here shoot this match? I attended the western pa groundhog championship last year and had a great time. How does this match compare? Also what kind of targets do they use and how are they scored? Any info is appreciated thank you!!!!

It's a pretty good time, Targets are fun and tough, I forget what they shoot at a 100, but Crows at 300 and their regular target with scoring rings at 400. I haven't gone in a couple years, you'll need to be a member of the Varmint Hunters Association to participate. They also hold a regular match the day after so it makes for a good weekend of shooting

The targets at 300 are 3 different crows with a white one inch diameter circle. If you miss the white circle and hit the black you cannot see your hit. You shoot 2 at each crow target. The white circle has a tiny black dot in the center. I always thought the 300 target makes or breaks the shooter chances. A good time!

As Frank said the 300 yard crow target makes or breaks you. It kicks my but every time but it is a lot of fun. I will be there and I am staying for the Sunday shoot also.

A really fun shoot to do, I have gone to every one since they began but cannot make it this year due to a conflict with other to do things. Going to miss it. If you can go, by all means go, you are sure to enjoy.

Thanks everyone.... Depending on how the next few matches go, I may make the seven hour ride!
