June Results
38 total shooters persevered the torrential rain storm and the muddy field conditions at the June Match. Despite these obstacles – including flooding out of the 25 Yard South range – the June match still managed to get seven of eight planned pistol stages.
Congratulations to all the class winners.

There must be three or more competitors to be recognized for a class.
Setting up on the Day of the Match
Range is open at 7:00 AM for setup. If setup crew is going to be late on a stage, please contact J.D. Smith ahead of time. This way extra range setup personnel can be funneled to help on other stages that are in trouble.
If you are relatively new at setting up a course or unsure of what to set up, check in with J.D. Smith. He will provide you with direction on what is needed.
If you require assistance in building the course, you will be able to enlist a volunteer or two on the day of the match to help you haul stuff, set up targets and do what ever is necessary.
