I still haven't had time for anything except that pistol target but we still have time!

Has anyone else at least tried to shoot a target?

Blackfeet

Finished with rifle, got driven off my range by black flies, tis the season.

I tried last Thursday and failed because of everything you can imagine going wrong.  Add to that the fact that I can't shoot well enough to hit a paper bag taped over the muzzle.  :o

What is the good word out there? Did anyone else get a chance to shoot?

I finally got time for the bench match so all 3 are done. I just sent it to Blackfeet and I think I can shoot better or at least I used to be able to shoot a better target but it is harder to find time to shoot them than it used to be.

Did anyone else shoot at a target? We were hoping for a little more than 1 or 2 of us. 1st and 2nd place don't mean near as much when you are the only shooters.

Blackfeet, I didn't get your targets.

My pistol target was good but my other targets would have been easy to beat.

We've been having daily rain plus I'm still waiting for a chance to get to the range.  I'll try and shoot the targets this month.  Mine are sort of "on hold" for the moment.  I will try to get in targets for more months than only June.

It looks like Blackfeet was first with rifle and I was first with pistol. We need more shooters.

This cold, rainy weather is not letting me shoot yet so maybe next week.

May results have been posted.
June's targets  will be the same three matches and a novelty target
if we can figure out how to post it. Or you can email me for the file

I got to the range well before the thunderstorms arrived this time.  I shot the rifle target but not for a June score; I did it to warm up and see how much worse I'm shooting after not getting any practice in for a looong time.  I surprised myself by getting a pretty fair group.  But trouble is that it was in the nine & eight rings.  I'll be trying it again with the same rifle next time out.  If I do it too late for June I'll shoot the next months match.  I won't shoot the pistol match until I get through the rifle match - whenever that is.
