JANUARY 19, 2014 - PETITCODIAC - CENTERFIRE BR SHOOT

Well, we got the new year started off well with our first Centerfire Benchrest Shoot. The weather co-operated with temperatures around +1C and very light winds at times with overcast skies. Such is the nature of a "January Thaw" in New Brunswick - the next day it was -20C in the back yard. But we were happy to enjoy this little gift for our shoot.


There were 17 shooters in all who participated. Most were from the Southern part of the province from Fredericton to Moncton and across to Sussex and Grand Manan. We had a few more young shooters on the line this time - great to see them shooting and enjoying themselves. We also had a family here today - Dan Gladstone, his son Logan and daughter Kaytelyn, AND GUESS WHAT, Kaytelyn shot really well and won the match (she is definitely hooked on BR shooting) while father Dan placed third. Bert deVink took the silver. Good shooting guys!!

Thanks go to the Match Director and scorer Volker Topf and the target changers Brian Pettipas and Dan Gladstone. ROs were Darryl Kierstead, Dan Gladstone and Brian Pettipas - thanks guys. Thanks also to Shelly Colpitts and Dan Gladstone for bringing the traditional treats without which we could not shoot so well. Darryl Kierstead took the great pictures and Volker Topf the write-up. Thanks guys.

See y'all at the next match!!
