It was a cold and rainy day as we set out to shoot the Fall Classic Championship in Florenceville. This weather peristed until we came close to Hartland when the rain stopped but the cold remained.
At the range we were struck by a stiff wind and cool temperatures but thankfully, no rain until the 4th relay. There was a bit of drizzle from time to time - enough to wet the barrels sticking out of the roof-
line of the firing line shelter. The rain, when it came, only served to wet the targets which made it impossible to score them in the normal fashion using a marking plug. The temperature did not make it past 5C all day. The main condition was the wind, which varied from a calm to howling around the shooting building at 50km/hr. It was "all-over-the-place" and was very hard to predict resulting in depressed scores for all except Greg S. in Sporter Class. Congrats to him for shooting a perfect 600/42X - some pretty darn good shooting for the conditions.
Jean S. was the match director and statistician while Greg S. and Ash P. did the scoring (with some of us looking on
from time to time). Everyone went forward to change targets. The Range Officers were Ash P., Jean S. and Paul L. Jean again outdid herself in providing a wonderful lunch for all the shooters. Hot dogs were cooked by several shooters.This food was very much appreciated by all as we were ravenous after a cold morning of shooting. Thank you to all who contributed to making this Fall Classic a great time to get together in an annual championship.
There were several shooters who had not been seen much during the year. Welcome to Paul L., Sumanth., Roby Y., Murray E., Hunter S., and Jared B. The latter two were juniors who did some very fine shooting.
