Today was our last High Power Match for 2023 and we had a beautiful day and a good turnout.    Dan Gruver was our High Shooter today and won the National Match class, and we were pleased to have two Junior Shooters today, Nolan and Graham Dunkle. Three folks saw their scores improve when I did the calculator work after the match (you're welcome) but Nolan lost a few points and still managed to win the Service Rifle Class.

  We hope everyone had a fun season and is looking forward to coming back next year.  Every month, all the participants pitch in and help make these matches possible, but I would like to give a special thanks to Ed Wineland, who opens the grounds and sweeps and helps set up every match, and a very special thanks to Martha Mathews for bringing lunch and feeding the hired help each month, along with our Range Officer Emeritus, Pete Mathews.  As always, my partner Nate Hunter's help running these matches is invaluable.

  One last note is a reminder about our annual Bolt Gun Match in two weeks, on October 15th.  Same time and, hopefully, enough interest to run the usual two Relays, at 9 am and 1:30 pm on that Sunday.  As before, the course of fire will be 10 shots, slow fire, from each of the basic four positions- Offhand, Sitting, Kneeling, and Prone.  Any type sighted rifle is OK and we still have a .22 class also.

  Thank you all and have a good winter.
