Thanks to Barbara J. for sending results and pics.
It's getting toward the end of summer and the evidence was in the morning temperature. When leaving for the range, early in the morning the temperature was recorded at 9C. By the time we started the match it had climbed to about 15C and by the end of the match we had gained another 4C. There is also lots of evidence in the trees around us. Some of the softer maples were already changing to a vivid red while poplars were beginning to turn brown/yellow.
The day was over-cast with only a few short periods of bright sunshine. This made it good for shooters who preferred a low even light and no mirage at higher power magnification - that includes almost all of us, eh? There was a bit of very light rain toward the end of the match and the rain was heavier on the way home.
The wind was a curious mix of switches from one side of the range to the other. Sometimes flags were facing each other and the daisy-wheels were spinning like crazy. The dominant wind was from the left side of the range but it could suddenly switch to any other direction or to no apparent wind at all. A shooter had to have sighted for a couple of conditions in order to complete the match within the time limit.
There were no clean match scores recorded, yet, despite the difficult conditions, which affected all shooters, some pretty good target sheets were shot today.
Many thanks to all who worked hard to make this shoot a successful one.
