We had only five (5) competitors come out for the Saturday, July 26, 2025 league match. People were staying away in droves. For no particularly good reason.
The start of the match:
Notice there was no precipitation. However, as we got going we developed a little drizzle. So, we put up our rain flys:
Then we had remarkably gentle conditions, and frankly, dry conditions. I rested on the benches behind the firing line outside of the rain fly’s between strings.
Finally, just as we finished firing, and had put all of the targets away, it rained hard. Click the link below:
Only one Palma Shooter, Ray Gross. He posted a 599-35X. One F-Open shooter, Nick Nadenoff. He posted a 598-31X.
There were three (3) F-TR shooters, Leo Cebula finished with a 599-38X. As one of my Marine Corps coaches said: “Even a blind sow finds an acorn now and then”. Maybe it will carry over to the F-Class Nationals.
Our next match will be the 2025 Michigan Mid-Range Prone Championship sanctioned by the Civilian Marksmanship Program. You can see the program and enter here: 2025 Michigan Mid-Range Prone Championship.
