Dog Days Bowling Pin Match Results

Bowling Pin Matches

Gentle Shooters,

There were any number of dreams dashed on the ASC’s Pistol Range at the August Match. Some experienced equipment failure while others saw ammo stop working at critical junctures. There were also widespread accusations of practice between matches. The match director pointed out that we shoot matches because there is no time to practice. But with the July match cancelled due to Director apathy, technically there was time to practice, so it was allowed. Will a full slate of matches until December, practice is over until the end of the season .  And as always, the cream rises to the top. Our next match is September 6th. See you at the range.

The Umpteenth Dog Days Bowling Pin Shoot

Bowling Pin Matches

Gentle Shooters,

I have called the August shoot the Dog Days shoot for as long as there has been an internet and I have run the matches. But this month, that amounts to false advertising. With temperatures forecast at 80 degrees, this might be the most seasonal dog days ever. Its a great time to join your friends at the August ASC Bowling Pin match, held at the regionally renowned 50 yard range in Wonderful Wakefield. We begin setup at 9AM sharp, more or less Saturday August 2nd. For information about the match, please see our page at the ASC site. You can find rules and suggestions there. For specific questions, we employ a pinhead bot at [email protected] who can give vague and misleading answers on a variety of pin shooting and Corvette topics. Beta 2.0 Use with caution.

See you Saturday.

July 20th Rimfire Challenge – Barnyard Bash

Uncategorized

Rimfire Challenge – Barnyard Bash

SRB – 50 yd Range is reserved for this Rimfire Challenge –

The Barnyard Bash Rimfire Challenge is for 22 LR only. This month’s challenge, on Sunday, July 20th, is a speed shooting competition shooting at barnyard animals: (steel chickens, boars, turkeys & rams) in four strings to complete the match.  Each target hit is worth 1 point.  40 points total for each match.  

The course of fire is designed to be completed by even the most inexperienced shooter using one 10-round magazine without reloading “on the clock.” I recommend a minimum of two magazines, each holding five rounds.  It is open to all; even the young and old can easily participate.

A $5.00 entry fee applies to members, and $10.00 to guests.

I need help setting up the range at 7:00 am and taking it down after the match.  Safety Meeting 8:30-9:00 am. The safety meeting is mandatory to shoot the match. The match starts promptly at 9:00 am. Contact Match Director: Tom Sanford, [email protected]

No July Pin Match

Bowling Pin Matches

I just wanted to ensure that all pin shooters are aware that there will not be a match on Saturday July 5.  It’s too close to the holiday, and none of your favorite pin match directors are available.

I hope everyone has a fun and safe 4th of July!

June Bowling Pin Match Results

Bowling Pin Matches

Gentle Shooters,

As predicted, it never rains on the range. We had a warm, dry day with excellent shooting conditions. If you are a lizard sunning itself. For mammals, it was hot. I’d like to congratulate Taylor Strickland for his clean run today. He left no pins. During each shooters brief, we discuss the possibility of a string that is exactly 15.00 seconds. Like Baseball, the tie goes to the runner. Mr Strickland scored a 15.00 in minor on his way to a clean shoot. A fun thing to see. During the carbine competition, Paul Lynch and Cort Tompkins were tied for fastest string. On the last string, Cort edged Paul out be 13/100 of a second. Good Shooting guys.

Just a reminder that we will be taking July off this year. Our next match is August 2nd. The scores for the match are posted below.

See you in August.
