March 2nd Smoke Report

Post by smokem »

Good morning folks and March is here. With temps in the 60’s on Sunday folks were out practicing and some getting ready for the Southern Grand. I hope to be around a computer and will be posting scores when available for the Silver Dollar.

Shooting in NC is slowly cranking up and NC publishes two calendars. Here are the links for the NCTA calendars for the typical registered shoot and for the BIG50’s. NCTA shoot link - http://www.nctrap.com/shoots2017.pdf - BIG50 link - http://www.nctrap.com/nc_big50.pdf

Marty Hill let me know that Frank McFall passed last week, and Frank was the manager at the Ft. Bragg Clay Target Centre. He worked hard and supported the efforts to host some of the best shoots in North Carolina. They had the facilities and the traps, but help was hard to find. I broke some great scores at Bragg and do miss the 80-mile trip to the facility. Below is the link to the obit. RIP Frank and thanks for the memories.

The Southern Grand cranks up shortly and folks from NC are already there and others will be leaving next Saturday. If you like keeping up with scores you can visit http://www.rjstuart.com for a scoreboard and other info about the shoot. Sure, wish I was going and use to go back in the day. Good luck to all the NC crew and we will be looking for you on the leaderboard.

Harlan Campbell will be hosting two 2-day clinics at the Rockingham Gun Club in early April. This will be the first time for Harlan at the Rock, and we hope he has a good time teaching the clinic. We will try to get some pictures if available.

Ok that is about it for this week. I did talk to Lewis several times last week and he sounds good. He is waiting for warmer weather and really wants to get out to the club. Hello to Lou, Scott, Lewis, Ronnie, Cowboy and Anne and until next week…………….smokem…..
