January Tune Up Match
Billed as the January Tune-Up Match, this was our first shoot of 2007. The 60 shot course was designed to be tough as a prelude to the Florida SuperBowl / State Shoot . Blustery winds made what was supposed to be a challenge into a humbling experience. Just two competitors shot over 50%; namely Cliff Smith in piston and Ed Escue in precharge division. Ed’s score was all the more satisfying as he shot 35 of 60 with a rig be borrowed from Dick Otten. Ed better expedite those repairs. Dick may not be so generous when there is a trophy at stake.
Several shooters were ill with symptoms ranging from mild sore throats to full blown flu symptoms. You know you have dedicated shooters when they make the effort to drive a hundred plus miles each way even when they feel weakly. The "I Should Have Stayed In Bed" Award will be shared between Gordon Hodson and Dick Otten. Both shot well below their expectations and both worked through illness to setup the course for the days shoot. Rest up one and all The Florida State Superbowl Shoot is around a short corner. Hope to see you there !
