BAGA - Badgerland AirGun Association
Field Target Match
June 14, 2003

We had thirteen shooters at today's match, including one new shooter and a returning junior shooter. It was great to see Jessica Carrol , daughter of Brandon, try her hand at FT. She has shot 10M with us before and we hope that she will return to do more FT next month. Also Dylan Frahm returned with Mike and tried his hand with sharing Mike's Steyr. We appreciate these guys driving all the way from Iowa to join us for our matches. Keep up the good work, Dylan.

The course of fire was the even course and due to last minute set-up, final Troyer ratings have not yet been established. Also, because of the last minute target set-up, we ended up with 2 kneeling and two standing targets. One of each in one lane, so both kneeling and standing had to be accomplished on the same lane. There was a bit of rumbling about the difficulty of this course, but it really was on par for our standard BAGA courses. Only difference was I tried to put most of the targets into the sunlight and that might have moved some targets back a few yards. Still I think others were moved in closer.

We still had a fairly tight race amongst the top shooters but no need for a shoot-off this week. Congrats to Vlad for his winning shooting and to Greg and Ron for coming in close behind him. And again congrats to Jessica on her maiden FT match. See you all next month and don't forget to send in your registration for the 2003 Badgerland Regionals.
