October PTO

10/24/2015

 
We had some very close and competitive prone shooting at this weekend’s PTO! I had a great start in the morning with solid 10's in the sighting and preparation period, then I heard it... The wheels of Jr shooter Matt's gear bag, oh how he loves to be fashionably late, though his tardiness was understandable with the activities of the CHP fitness test, occupying our only access point into and out of the rang.  Anyways, by the time he was setup I had already posted my first two competition strings a 99 & 98.

All competitors shot incredibly well, and I would love to share pictures however, my digital camera seems to have met its end two nights earlier... Just FYI concrete floors are not healthy for any piece of modern technology.

The match results are as follows:
Kurt                       590 with 34 Centers (scope)
Matt                     587 with 27 Centers
Cameron             586 with 31 Centers
Mike                     584 with 28 Centers
Jober                    584 with 27 Centers
John                      580 with 23 Centers
Rodger                 579 with 23 Centers 
William                567 with 14 Centers

All eight of these competitors shot extremely well!  And after the competition they continued by shooting a 20 shot practice prone final.

3 Position Team Event

10/3/2015

Not to be outdone, the Senior Team (age 60 and over) of President John Giles and junior coach Darrell Malstrom also exceeded the existing National Record scores of the same 2  3-Position matches which are also being submitted to NRA as new National Records.  Well done to the old guys!!!!

​National Records may be established only in Registered NRA Tournaments approved ahead of time, and quite a lot of paperwork with a variety of witness signatures AND the shot targets and backers must be submitted to NRA for re-scoring and acceptance.

On Saturday I was pleased to run a 3-Position competition using A-50 targets for our juniors and others that showed up.  The Intermediate Junior Team (ages 15-17) of Matt L. and William M.  exceeded the existing National Record scores of 2  3-Position (prone, standing and kneeling) matches which are being submitted to NRA as new National Records. Well done!!!!

​Both matches were won by the USAF, Cam and Mark, 544 and 533.  M1 top individual scorer was Mark, 277, and the M2 top scorers were Matt and Cam, 276.

High prone scores were Jober and William, 99, John and Jober had 98's.  High standing was Mark with a 92, next was Cam with an 89.  The kneeling high score was Matt with a 98, next ones were 92's-Matt again, Cam, Jober and Cam again.

We appreciate Jober shooting along with Ellie, so we had a good number of teams.
​
John may be shooting elsewhere for the Nov. 7-8 match, so we may have to "dig up" another senior from somewhere.  Hope everyone else can make it. Any ideas for another senior, even someone who shoots high power? Hate to lose those senior records when they are there for the taking.(Nov. 7-8, 4-P, one target each day for each position, big A-23  50 yard targets.)

In the meantime, while the real men were shooting 3-Position, others were shooting a Mini-Palma Club match using F-Class rests.  This match uses properly reduced International Palma 1000, 900 and 800 yard centerfire targets to be shot at 100 yards with .22 competition rifles.  Out of 450 points Bobby DePasque shot 450, Phil Massoris 448, and Richard Blankenship and Sgt. Ray Del Rio shot 446.  All really good scores!
 
The next NRA junior(open to anyone) match will be November 7-8 and will be for 4-Position(prone, standing, kneeling and sitting) competition on A-23 targets. Come out and join the fun!
