Keep it up!!!
If you had told me 5 years ago we would be consistently shooting 5 shot groups at 600 yards under 2” I would have laughed, and now we are shooting 4 and 8 target aggs under 2” at our wide open wind blown high desert range in Western Colorado. Amazing.
Thank you to Tina Carter for helping out in the score shack and thank you to all the competitors for a safe and efficient set up and tear down of the target frames etc. It is a well oiled machine now.
We are taking September off.
The next match is the state match, October 4th and 5th.
