JANUARY 10, 2016 - PETITCODIAC 22BR SHOOT - RESULTS

Already full of enthusiasm from the Lake George shoot, a good number of shooters attended the first shoot of the season at Petitcodiac. Anticipation ran high as many had not had a formal match since before the holiday season. Smiles all around, it was good to see our friends and fellow shooters again. It was also nice to feel the bench, the rifle and to concentrate on the conditions - and then to see a hit on the ten ring.
 

The match today was shot  with some pretty good conditions. Temperatures ranged around 0 to -3 degrees, although it felt a little cooler than that on the firing line. We all hovered around the stove when we could and ran to the Club House for some tea or coffee in between relays. Winds, normally pretty tricky and strong at Petitcodiac, were very light for the first 2 relays and then picked up a bit until they were 'what we were used to' at this range - whipping from side to side and spinning the Daisy-wheels as fast as they could go. Then things settled down to some predictable head winds to close out the match. The overcast sky provided good steady light and there was no cussing at the glare from the snow. Even the light drizzle during one relay did not hinder us much.

The work crew today consisted of Volker T. who was both the Match Director and the Scorer while Dan G. and John McC. provided the score verification. The Range Officers were Darryl K., Dan G. and Bert deV. Target frames were installed by Tony L and Cecil H. Targets were posted by Guy H., Logan G., Mike H., Dan G. and John McC. We were gratefully overwhelmed - (but really we were up to the task) - by the many wonderful treats provided by Shelly C., Barb J., Dan G. and Dorothy McC., who were all still in holiday baking mode. Wayne K. kept the coffee flowing and Barb J. took the pictures. Many, many thanks to all for your welcome contributions - remember that a match is not possible without all the work done on behalf of fellow shooters.
