PALO ALTO MID-RANGE PRONE
Saturday April 4, 2009
Thirty one shooters at our little match
today. The winds were typical Palo
Alto, and the weather was just about perfect.
We had eleven shooters competing in
F-Class, four in F-TR and seven in F-Open. Ted Torres was top gun in F-TR
class with a nice score of 564-13x, just beating Ms. Ashlyn Kliebert by a
single point. The TR class is always tight near the top. Nice
shooting Ted.
In the Open class, Whitney Simoneaux was F-Class Match Winner by X count over Joey
Clark. Whitney shot a very nice 593-31x. Joey Clark was first Open
class with 593-26x, and Lanny Russell was third with 588-25x.
On the Prone side, Rob Westfall was Prone Match Winner with 593-34x. Gary
Henry was 1st HM with 591-29x. Buck Kliebert won the combined Master-Expert
class with 582-16x, followed by Ronald Kliebert’s 573-12x. Third
place was Emmett Roan with 570-22x. This was Emmett’s first time
back with us in a couple years. The combined Sharpshooter-Marksman class
was won once again by Norman Bennett with 559-14x. Second place was Bruce
Pickering’s 554-9x, and third place was taken by Bob Bose with
538-9x. Congratulations to all.
Thanks to everyone for helping to clean up
the range after our little windstorm of a few days ago. It sure made a
mess of things. For those of you who were not there, we had chairs blown
to the fence/highway, trash barrels everywhere, etc. it was quite a little
blow. Happily, our new covers came through with flying colors with no
damage. It looks like money well spent. Also, special thanks to
those who stayed after the match to repair our targets. We replaced the
cardboard backing on those needing it, and refaced all frames. The range
is in fine shape for our two upcoming Regional championships.

Our next match will be the Palo Alto
SPRING REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP fired May 2-3, 2009. The format will be the
same as our monthly matches, fired on consecutive days. The weather
should be fine, so make plans to attend both days. We will provide food
and drinks on the range following Saturday’s shooting. The match
bulletin is attached. (You can shoot a single day if you wish, but all
awards and door prizes will be for the two day aggregate.) We will be
giving a crispy new $100.00 bill each day as a door prize.
