Greetings from the new smallbore silhouette match director Doyle Andrews. It is my privilege to take over from the Johnsons. Don and Shihoko’s hard work and dedication to our sport is appreciated by us all. With your help we will keep our event safe and fun. Please feel free to approach me with suggestions. Sincerely, […]
The day started out with a very light wind and some mirage. The temperature was ok since shooting was done under the cover. For the relatively easy conditions, there was a lot of problems with shots either dropping out or flying high for no apparent reason. The last targets of the day had to deal […]
A hot, clear day with not much wind or mirage. It was hard to concentrate when wiping the sweat off your head. Conditions were enough to get a nine if you didn’t pay attention. The electronic targets really make the relays go faster and we finished before the typical late morning winds appeared. F Open […]
We had a nice, sunny and wind free day for this months match. Congratulations to first time shooter Wendy McClintock for taking third place in the tightly contested Service Rifle class. Many thanks to Mike Ceccarelli for watching the line while I shot. Thanks to all for helping setup and takedown the barricades, targets, chairs, […]

We had another great Varmint match! The weather and the wind conditions were beautiful and we had some really solid finishes. More shooters classed up and everyone seems to be enjoying the new bobcat targets. Unfortunately, due to a technical error, the target scores were lost. The scorekeeper offers her sincere apologies. The next match […]
Hot. Stayed hot for the match with some light winds on the last target of the day. Mirage was ok for the first targets but got a little heavier making holds on the target open to interpretation. Electronic targets were used again which sped the match up. One has to make sure the right […]
Weather was hot with very light winds at times and light to medium mirage. Watching the mirage resulted in ok vertical but the left and right were harder to figure out. Electronic targets were used for the match and everyone was for their continued use. If you are planning to come to a match, try […]
Nine shooters enjoyed knocking down steel silhouette targets under clear skies and bearable July temperatures. Wind was calm throughtout the match, picking up just as the match concluded at 10:45. Welcome back Sylvan (his second match) and Loren (it’s been awhile). Jim B. shot Chickens, Pigs, and Turkeys offhand while Dave E., Marty D., and […]
It was clear, calm and hot for the first targets and stayed hot for the rest of the match. The wind did pick up for the last 2 targets, but it was less than 5 mph. Besides the weather being hot, the barrels stayed hot and didn’t really cool down. Electronic targets were used again […]
