Buckhorn Grand Day 2 8/9/2015
Posted: Sun Aug 09, 2015 4:00 pm
What a great day for shooting! Temperatures were mid 80s, minimal wind, sky was blue with just a few clouds. Targets were perfect for all three events. We had a few less shooters today than Saturday, those who stayed home really missed out....not only on the shooting. I watched several people put on at least 5 lbs apiece, pie, cake, ice cream......
We got to watch President Hill working out his new UGB on the caps and doubles. Now, this is a strange looking thing, but, Marty sure made targets disappear with it.
Since we're in the "Dog Days" of Summer, we'll honor a few of our puppies with event names......
Jack 'n' Jim Singles: 18 shooters
Champ - Steve Watson 98 (C/O with Tim Crabtree)
AA - Dan Johnson 97
A - Tim Crabtree 98

This wraps up Buckhorn until the new target year. There is a three day event at Labor Day, Jimmy will post the program when available. Make plans, this is a good shoot to start the new year with (no fuzzy pink targets this year either!)
See you next time where ever that may be! Dan
