Dog Days Pin Shoot Results

Bowling Pin Matches

Gentle Shooters,

The day dawned warm but soon became downright hot as to be expected in the dog days of summer. Our intrepid shooters battled both the heat and the pins in an epic duels. Guns failed and shooters swooned, but the cream eventually rose to the top (and then curdled in the heat) as our results listed below show. Our next match is Saturday September 5th. In our ongoing attempts to modernize the matches and try out new things, we will be testing a new category toward the end of that match. By popular demand, we are going to trial a ,22lr carbine match in September. We are thinking eight pintops set across the front of the table. If successful, you could expect to see some changes in 2027 season. If you would like to help us test that out, bring a .22 carbine to the next match and expect to stay until the end.

Steven

Snake Experts???

ASC Announce

Do we still have some snake relocation experts in our club?  Years ago, when I was MO, I was approached by a few snake experts.  I, unfortunately, did not get their names.  We now have what appears to be a poisonous snake down by the 5-stand range.  If you’re interested in finding and relocating this one, please contact me at [email protected]

Range Etiquette

ASC Announce

Observations from the MO:

On a recent visit to the range for a little work and shooting, I noticed that we need to do better as members, this is good for the club and our members. When returning the target backers to the shed, please strip your used targets from the backer and dispose of them accordingly, this helps the next shooter that will use that backer and is also the courteous thing to do. The board has decided that a hi-viz belt may be used instead of using the hi-viz vest. These are required for identification of the RSO, 2 of the belts have been placed in the sign in shed for use. When returning them to the sign-in shed please hang those belts back up or place the vest on the shelf. The vest have been seen laying on the floor of the shed numerous times. When removing frames and laying them down, do this as gently as possible, dropping the target frames to the ground can damage or break the frames. If the trash can is overflowing please remove the bag and place another one in the trash can, bags are located in the sign in shed, if you are able, please take the bag to the dumpster. If you do this send an email to the MO with your member number and if possible a pic and you will be given service hours. Please do not stack boxes around the trash cans, take them or have someone take them to the dumpster. It is summertime and pop up thunderstorms are possible at any given time and these winds can blow loose trash and boxes around.

Also we need to remember some of our basic rules: when opening the range, all locks should be zeroed out after unlocking. Do not share codes with non members, if  members bring guests please unlock the bathrooms for the guest. If you are the last to leave the range, please check to make sure that the bathrooms have been locked up.
