March 5, 2016 F-Class Match

IMG_0078What an awesome match!

The weather was good and we had a great turnout. We had some more new shooters and if all the old and new shooters show up at once, I am running away from home!

No perfect 300 scores thiIMG_0059s time, but lots of great shooting. We liked 7 shooters having 2 complete relays. F-Class is really growing. We had another lady first time shooter and it looks like we may have several more.

A meal of Brats and beans was provided by Chef Andrew. Come join the fun on Sat. April 2, 2016. Check out the scores on Match Scores. Hope to see you then.

First F-Class of 2016!

Hello all you F-Class shooters. Our match last Sat. Jan. 2, 2016 was quiet successful considering the cold temps. and wind. The sun came out and it was not a bad day. Want to thank the first timers and all the regulars for coming out to make a good match. The high water kept some folks away.

Hope to see everyone Feb. 6, for our next match. Scores posed on Match scores.

Get ready you F-Class shooters!

IBR 2015 600 Yard Missouri State Championship.

Big2015mochamp Piney Sportsman’s Club was home the International Bench rest Shooters 600 Yard Missouri State Championship. The match was held over the weekend June 27-28. The shooters form across the Midwest including 4 states began rolling in on Friday sighting in and socializing.

The Missouri state championship is a 2 day event and figured on 16 targets total (8 Light gun and 8 Heavy Gun) We had a total of 21 shooters that shot both days braving the conditions.

Saturday started out mild wind and low mirage. It did not take long for the infamous Big Piney mirage to open up groups and lowering scores. At the end of the day Ryan Hunt came out on top with an overall win in light gun and heavy gun. On his heels were Justin Roberson and Donnie Greer. Justin won Light gun score with a 194 and Donnie Greer shooting amazingly consistently throughout the day. Junior champ went to Rory Jacobs for the day with Jaden Brotherton in sight. Justin Roberson and Hippie both shooting groups under 1 inch in the light gun it was going to come down to the wire.

Sunday started out in normal fashion with lots of discussion and strategy for the days coming events. Andy Ferguson comes out swing sweeping Light gun winning 2015mochamp2group agg. and score. Lanny Branch was shooting great to with a 2.012 group agg. Heavy gun was won by David Ferguson( I guess it does run in the family). Andy hung on for the 2 gun win on Sunday. Jaden Brotherton snunk up on everyone finishing strong and sweeping the junior shooters.

After all the smoke cleared it was to the computer for the State results.
