Feb.8, 2015 Club Match Results
A good turnout of 14 airgunners showed up on Sunday, A couple came to shoot their first ever Field Target competitions. Two members arrived solely to do some gun work so in the end we had 12 twelve competitors, 6 shooting Piston and 6 shooting precharge guns.
Shooting conditions were ideal for today's 50 shot match . It was a clear, sunny day with low humidity, a few high clouds and enough of a puffy wind to make things interesting on those longer shots. As usual, Lane 7 was designated the offhand lane and shooters had the option of shooting it from ground level or taking on those 3 targets from atop our airplane boarding ramp which is so much more fun. Shooters remarked how they enjoyed the wide variety of challenging targets throughout the course. ( A special shout out to Dick Otten who helped set the course on Saturday afternoon. THANKS !! )
There was a full mix of competitors shooting within the AAFTA (Open and Hunter Divisions) and WFTA (International) rules (Unfortunately this is not documented in the results matrix). For simplicity I just divided the Piston and PCP scores. First timer FT shooters Lindsey M. scored well with a borrowed R8, and Jeff K. made a fine first showing with his Benjamin Disco. Match Director ( Ron Z.) picked up his TX-SR for this event after a year of just shooting his LG Steyr . Surprised himself, he was the top piston pusher of the day.
