Frozen Clay Shoot

April 18, 2007 Open Pistol Shoot

1st Place – Bill Lane

2nd Place – Steve Cosenze

3rd Place – Richard Houde Jr. & Steve Hopper

We had fourteen shooters turn out on a rainy, cold day for our pistol shoot. We even had snow flurries at the end of it all. After rechecking the scores, Steve and Richie Jr. I am calling a tie for third place, Steve had a scoring error and Richie put seven shots from a forty-five caliber that you could cover with a quarter! Thanks to all who came out to shoot. Bill

P.S. I also deducted  -5- sympathy points for one shooter.(nice try Dan)

 

 Do Not put live rounds in the trash can!!!

We have red metal bottles at the ranges for live rounds; it is dangerous the barrels are sometime use for fires on cold days.
