PALO
ALTO
MID-RANGE PRONE
August
2, 2008
Twenty three shooters
attended the August 2, 2008 match and were treated to typical Palo Alto summertime
conditions. It was hot and the wind was breezy at times and very
manageable at other times. Prone attendance was down a bit with just 8
shooters, no doubt due to the national matches at Camp Perry. The F-Class shooters made
up the difference though with 15 shooters to include a nice contingent from
North Louisiana who were checking the range
prior to our October state championship match.
Ronald Kliebert was
top gun in the combined Expert/Marksman class with a score of 564-12x.
The High Master/Master combined class winner was Bill Jenkins shooting a very
strong score of 596-29x. Gary Henry was Prone Match Winner with a score
of 597-34x.
In the F-TR class
which had 8 shooters, Tim Caddell took top honors with a score of 573-8x,
followed in second place by Joe Simpson with 568-9x. Third place on the
podium was Sean McKay with 564-16x. Nice shooting guys. It was
good to see lots of TR guys, as it is a very competitive class. In the
F-Open class, Whitney Simoneaux took first place with a nice score of 592-36x,
followed by Mark Miller with
587-14x. The F-Class Match Winner was Don Geraci who fired a phenomenal
599-35x, just a single X off the range record. Congratulations to all!

Our next match will
be Saturday September 6th we hope you can shoot with us. It
will be a good tune-up match for the State match.
Our fifth annual
Louisiana Mid-Range Championship will be Saturday & Sunday October
4th & 5th. I have attached the Match Bulletin;
please forward it to any interested shooters. It will be two days of
sixty record shots each, prone or f-class. In addition, a twenty shot
two-man team fun match will be held on Saturday following lunch. Entry
fee is $10.00 per team, (coaching allowed naturally) with all proceeds going
to the shooters. The team match is not part of the championship
aggregate.
Competitors
registered for both days are eligible for door prize drawings, to be held on
Saturday. We will also provide lunch and drinks on Saturday. Door
prizes in years past have been substantial, thanks in part to match and class
winners who during the year donate their winnings to the award fund.
This year should be even better. Make your plans now to attend.
Thanks to all who
attended our little match, we hope you enjoyed it, and we hope to see you
again soon.
Lanny & Gary
