Long Range Match Saturday March 2 @ 1:00
Last good shoot before spring weather arrives!!

I sure wish that I lived close enough to make those matches.
But I have to ask; was the ground soft enough to get the sticks driven in or did you need a drill to bore a pilot hole first??

Kurt

Current temp. @ Forsyth is 34*F, so it may be getting somewhat
softer !

Well Jim, I guess maybe better to pack several sticks in case the spikes split out driving then in
I do like shooting with them, fine range and good people to shoot along side with.

This month it was real soft. Last couple you had to bring a hammer

If it wasn't a long 2 or 2 1/2 drive I would come

Every month the wind makes it a new adventure.

If you got up real early, you could probably make it in time for the match..... the next day !
