July 28,2009 Plate Match Report

18 Guns Entered   Match Winner:  Rob Potter                 

     No Junior Shooters Entered

     Young Bucks & Does Class Winner:  Mike Burt

     Senior Class Winner:  Reba Potter

     Super Senior Class Winner:  Leon Potter

 

     18 Guns ventured out in the heat, in a seque to the hottest recorded temperature in Washington State History on Wednesday, the next day.  I don't think anyone expected so many shooters to come out in the heat, but as has been said before: "We make'em tough at Gig Harbor Sportsman's Club". 

     Many thanks to those that set up and ran the match, and thanks to Rob Potter for forwarding me the report of the results of the match.  Rob's opening line of his memo to me about the results of the match began: "This is going to be short."  Well folks, now you know all this reporter knows of last night's match.  With temperatures soaring well over 100 degrees, it is going to take some exciting shooting to be as hot as the temperatures.  My suggestion:  Come out next week and see for yourself.  See you next Monday for the plates practice, next Tuesday for the plate match, and Sunday afternoon at 4pm for the GHSC Clays match.

Come out and shoot in the heat, the bullets will go faster.  And always remember:

 

     SHOOT FAST!  SHOOT ACCURATELY! BUT MOST OF ALL, SHOOT SAFELY.
