    Field Precision June 10, 2017 at Palo Alto

    23 shooters showed for our March Field Precision Rifle Match at Palo Alto. Thanks to co-match director Glen and Boudreaux for your help calling the match and readying targets. Special thanks to Mike Pizzolato for getting up the flags on the range, you are the man Sir. The help is greatly appreciated.

    We had 10 shooters shooting FPR this month. Mickey Brinkman shot a 587-23X that earned him 1st place medal. James Authement finished one point behind with a 586-18X that earned the 2nd place medal.
    8 shooters showed to shoot the match as an F Class match. Jerry Boudreaux pounded out his first 600. Jerry wins the 1st place medal this month only 1 x behind the range record with a 600-43X. Rick Smith finished with a 596-33X for the 2nd place medal.
    We had 5 sling shooters month. Rob Westfall takes the win again this month with a 590-25X that earned him the 1st place medal. Dwayne Vidrine finished with a 586-16X that earned him the 2nd place medal.

    Hope everyone enjoyed themselves and thank you for a safe match.
    Mickey and Glen
