Bowling Pin Matches

Just a quick reminder that we will have our July pin match this Saturday July 1st. Set up begins at 9:30 AM. Sorry this is nowhere near as verbose, or eloquent, as Steven’s posts. But he’s unavailable and won’t be there Saturday. Not sure what we’re up to? Check out a desciption of our matches at https://airfieldshootingclub.org/airfield-shooting-club-programs/asc-bowling-pin-matches/. The rules are at https://airfieldshootingclub.org/bowling-pin-rules-and-information/.

I hope to see you there Saturday morning.

Rimfire Challenge – 50 Yard Line Bench Rest

Rimfire Benchrest matches

Airfield Shooting Club completed another successful 22LR rimfire bench rest match for June.  The competition is fierce this year, going to be a tough year to find out who will be the top shooter.  The rimfire match follows a modified American Rimfire Association rule format on the 50 yard line.  Next match for this year is scheduled in July, If you haven’t had a chance to test your shooting skills, here’s your opportunity.  See you at the 50 yard line!  Reserve your bench early!

Thanks everyone!  Tom Sanford

Volunteer Needed 6/24/23

ASC Announce

4-H is asking ASC for some volunteer help with the 4-H Southeast
District Shoot. (Saturday, 24 June) They’ve asked for seven (7)
volunteers. Five of those volunteers will be helping with the rifle

of the volunteers will be helping with the archery competitions.

The shooting is scheduled to begin at 8 a.m. and will continue
until approximately 3 p.m. Volunteers should report at least 15 minutes

Defensive shooting match new category

Defensive Shooting

At the next defensive match July 29th there will be a new category of two gun Rifle and Pistol this category will run the same stage footprint as the other categories but with altered round count and procedure to compete in this category a rifle sling is mandatory preferably a two-point sling, single point slings will have to be used in conjunction with a keeper of some sort to prevent the muzzle from pointing directly down at the shooter’s feet, for safety reasons transitioning from rifle to Pistol will only be possible after the magazine of the rifle has been removed if possible and the last round in the chamber has been fired so that it is known without a doubt that there is no life ammunition in the chamber rifles without detachable magazines will have to be fired until empty before transitioning

June Bowling Pin Match Results

Bowling Pin Matches

Gentle Shooters,

I regret that I am traveling for work today. There was so much at the match to talk about. Perhaps there will be a Flyer article. I have to get on a plane now, and I made the executive decision that you would rather have scores than narrative.

The next match is July 1st.

We’re Back – The Excuse Free Bowling Pin Match June 3

Bowling Pin Matches

Gentle Shooters,

Like you, I am giddy with anticipation for the first match of the painfully delayed 2023 Pin Shooting season. That pain resolves on June 3rd. There has never been an ASC match like the one we are going to hold. The Excuse Free match will begin at 9:30 AM in pastoral Wakefield Virginia at the newly renovated Airfield Shooting Club’s 50 meter shooting complex. Shooters can expect a completely flat, dry and level range with brand new flat tables, aligned in three dimensions to within mere centimeters of true. The pins for this match have been curated from some of the finest dumpsters in the 757. Your perfectly placed impacts will vigorously remove these pins from these tables with ease. Likewise, you have had two extra months of practice, so your match directors are expecting record scores. All previous excuses are declared null and void for this match. You have one week to think up new ones!

Rules have not changed for this year and can be found at https://airfieldshootingclub.org/bowling-pin-rules-and-information/ Specific questions may directed at our assistant adjunct Pinhead 3rd class at [email protected]. I’d be truly remiss if I didn’t say thanks to all of the club members that have shown up to help get the range back into shape. And a big shout out to our Maintenance Officer and my long time unindicted bowling pin co-conspirator Art Schoner for the man years of sweat equity it has taken to get the range back into shape.

See you Saturday

Steven

The SEC Says …

ASC Announce

Today is 21 MAY 2023 and here are some important updates regarding club renewals and nominations for the upcoming Board of Directors elections.

RENEWALS:

Be advised that on 1 JUN a late fee will be applied to those members who have not paid their 2023-2024 club dues. In order to process your membership renewal, two things need to happen: 1) pay your dues, and 2) return a signed renewal form to me. If you have not received your membership card(s) in the mail yet, it is probably because one (or both) of those two things has not happened yet. Renewal forms went out on 30 MAR via email. If you don’t have a copy, check your SPAM/trash folder (some members have reported finding them there) or contact me ([email protected] or [email protected]) and I will send you a pdf copy of your form. Be sure to check the form over carefully and make any changes necessary directly on the form before signing it and sending it back to me. We were made aware that the program we used to generate the renewal forms produced some errors, specifically in the area of the NRA member # & EXP date. Again, make any changes necessary directly on the form, sign it and send it back to me. If you recently updated your NRA membership, be sure to send me a copy of your card (or label from an NRA magazine) to confirm the updated information.

NOMINATIONS for Board of Directors:

I apologize for the delay in getting this out, but pursuant to the current By-Laws, the club is now accepting nominations for the upcoming Board of Directors election to be conducted at the July meeting (15 JUL 2023) in the 4-H Conference Center banquet room. We are accepting nominations for all positions. Nominations will need to be presented to the Secretary ([email protected] or [email protected]) NLT 16 JUN 2023. Nominated members must be in good standing at the time of election. Spouses, significant others, close relatives and business partners cannot serve together on the board if they serve in a position that has control of the club’s funds (i.e. Treasurer, President, etc.). The term of office is 1 year. You can find position descriptions in the By-Laws. The current positions, with the current members filling the position (or “open” where no one is currently serving) are listed below:

President: Ray Covington
Vice President: Tim Drewry
Secretary: David Willis
Ast. Secretary: Greg Shelton
Treasurer: Kirk Culpepper
