Tracking missed  shots on this target is near impossible. </div> <bR> <div> Speaking of targets.  A candidate for Most <I>Disliked</I> target today was found today on lane 1 .     Tthe original target face graphic suggested some animal  character.  Today it's just a  dark painted monochromatic slab.    Set out at about 13  yards distance, the  3/8 KZ is very difficult to see<I>  (and is protected by a force field). </I>  It's nearly impossible to resolve face-plate and KZ details, specially when  back-lit  (like today) .  A better color scheme might help, but only if you're in the first squad to shoot that target.   Otherwise forget it !   </div> <bR> <div> Thanks one and all who helped with set-up, and match housekeeping.  Many hands make light (and quicker) work.</div> <bR> <div> Looking forward to more Field Target Fun next month.</div> <bR> <div> Scores and Equipment Matrix:</div> <bR> <div> <TABLE BORDER="3" CELLPADDING="3" CELLSPACING="2" WIDTH="784" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 25 ><NOBR><div> <B>Division  -  Name</B></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="130"><div> <B>    Rifle</B></div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="124"><div> <B>    Scope</B></div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="101"><div> <B>   Pellet</B></div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="105"><div> <B>  Notes</B></div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div>   <FONT SIZE="4" COLOR="#FFCC66" FACE="Arial" ><B>Score </B></FONT></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 19 WIDTH="174"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="174" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="130"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="130" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="124"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="124" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="101"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="101" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="105"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="105" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> (possible 42)</div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 19 ><NOBR><div> <I><B>   WFTF Div.  (pcp)</B></I></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="130"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="130" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="124"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="124" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="101"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="101" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="105"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="105" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="82"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="82" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 28 WIDTH="174"><div> <B>  Otis Davis</B></div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="130"><div> <B> Red Wolf</B></div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <B>Sightron 10-50</B></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="101"><div> <B>JSB 10.3</B></div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div>  <FONT SIZE="4" COLOR="#FFCC66" FACE="Arial" ><B>TOP GUN</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="4" COLOR="#FFCC66" FACE="Arial" ><B> </B></FONT></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="82"><div> 38</div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 19 WIDTH="174"><div>  Donovan Taylor</div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div>  Anschutz 9015HP</div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="124"><div> Sightron III</div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="101"><div>  AA 8.4</div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="105"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="105" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="82"><div> 37</div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 19 WIDTH="174"><div>  Doug Abbott</div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="130"><div>  Leshly 2</div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="124"><div>  Konus</div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="101"><div>  JSB 10.3</div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="105"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="105" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="82"><div> 34</div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 19 WIDTH="174"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="174" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="130"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="130" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="124"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="124" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="101"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="101" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="105"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="105" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="82"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="82" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 19 ><NOBR><div> <I><B>    OPEN Div.
