Big Piney Sportsman’s Club in Houston, Mo. had their first Silver Mountain Electronic Target System 600 yard F class match.

It was a beautiful warm sunny day with changing winds making shooting tough.There were 22 shooters, one of them being a new junior shooter, Kamryn Weeks. Watch out guys for this little girl!! She is a awesome shooter.

We want to thank everyone for coming out to support the club and for their patience. Things went pretty well for the first electronic match. There were a few wrinkles that we have to iron out. Everyone adapted to the new system very well, and seemed to enjoy it.

We welcome everyone to come shoot with us. Hope to see you at Big Piney’s next match, on March 11th 2017

We had a good turn out last Saturday. The weather was great and we had a couple of 300. Congrats to the new shooter on his 300. Also had a new junior shooter, Reece Bose. You guys better watch out for this little girl !! She is awsome.

Two more matches this year. Hope to see you there. Check out the results.

Hello everyone. If you were not at Big Piney the 24&25 you really missed a big event. We had 82 shooters from 14 different states. As far away as Fl.,ND.,ID., SC., NC., and many others. Two days of non stop shooting.  The weather was great and so was the food and a good time was had by all. We heard many good compliments about the facility and the good match. Thanks to everyone for all their hard work and to all the shooters.

• Light Gun Group Results
• Two Gun Group Results

People started to roll into the little Missouri town Wednesday afternoon in preparation for the battle of the best shooters in the Nation. On Thursday and Friday competitors checked in and acclimated themselves to the beautiful 600 Yard range that belongs to the Big Piney Sportsman’s Club in Houston, MO. Everyone was very impressed with the facility and underestimated the conditions that Big Piney could throw at them.

Opening morning for Light gun class proved to be challenging. Start time was pushed back one hour due to the fog settling in the firing line. By the second half of 8 targets shooters began to settle in and take control of the conditions. The Missouri shooters stayed on top with Ben Peters winning light gun score with a 385. Jason Walker came out with a group win with a 2.008” through 8 targets. With Tom Jacobs, Darrel Dacus, Jim Bauer, and Carrol Lance rounding out the top 5 in Light gun overall  it was going to be a hard fight to the finish.

Sunday the Heavy gun started right on time with the clouds keeping the fog in check. Relay 3 started the day and put it on top shelf for everyone to follow. The conditions seemed to stay pretty steady and helped create some amazing groups. Tom Jacobs came through with a 1.685 Heavy gun group aggregate. Rookie shooters Jim Kowske and TJ Stroop put on a great Heavy gun performance. Jim was second in Heavy gun group with 1.996” and TJ shot his way to second in score with a 384. Jason Walker hung on winning Heavy gun score with a 389. This set up Jason as the Heavy gun overall winner.

Jason dominated the weekend landing himself a 2 gun Overall Championship. The top Rookie honors went to TJ Stroop. Sally Bauer won the Overall top female. Rory Jacobs was able to seal the top Junior spot.

The Big Piney crew would like to thank everyone for being great friends and competitors! We could not have done it without everyone!

Our second match this month was a good turn out. The weather was nice. Always good to see the new shooters. Bob & Andrew cooked chicken on the new grill, and it turned out great. Don’t forget that there are no F-Class matches in September.  However there will be IBS . Come and check it out. Our next F-Class will be October 1. See you then.

Our attendance was down a little this month. The end of summer everyone is busy (like mowing the yard once a week)! We did have another 300 and a new shooter, so things are looking good. Don’t forget we have another match this month on Aug. 27. See you then.

Hey guys… Sorry about no updates on f-class. We have been on vacation , so glad to be back. Had a good crowd. Another name on the the 300 board. The weather cooperated and was ok. Competition is getting tougher and tougher. Had some new shooters. Hope to see you Aug. 6, and 27. See you then.
