CAGC hosted our first match of 2025.
Pete, Leo & Rich helped Ron set up the course on Saturday morning.
It was cold and very windy with mirage. It got windier towards the end.
Holding off in variable wind was very hard. Many times, it switched directions once you made a shot. Waiting for the same wind direction seemed to be work sometimes.
It was a good session to get your wind doping skills and shot timing worked out.
We were happy to welcome Rich G from New Hampshire who help setup the course on Saturday. He did very well. He had not shot any outdoor field target since Arizona Worlds.
All targets had 1-½" kill zones.
Thanks to all that attended and helped clean up the course within 10 minutes. It was another nice day to shoot field target with friends.

Again, more memories of the old Crosman Matches at the plant.
That open field was SO TREACHEROUS, LOL!
Good shooting and excellent example of FITING THE COURSE TO THE WEATHER/ENVIRONMENT.
Congrats!
Keep well and shoot straight!
