Sixteen shooters got to knock down steel amid ideal weather for iron sights–every target was clearly visible, even the troublesome Turkeys! We had four new shooters, and a few “Welcome back! Haven’t seen you in awhile!” As expected, scores were high, and we had to set targets multiple times. Everyone helped, so there was minimal […]
