The next DIFTA match will be on Sunday October 7.
As usual, we gather around 8-8:30 to finish setting up the course and, once all the strings are in place, we open the range for practice. Registration will start around 9:00 and will end at 9:45 when we will have the mandatory shooters' meeting. This match will be a 60-shot match, with a few offhand shots and either some rapid fire or another forced position. Weather and interest permitting, after the match we will fire our grill and have out potluck BBQ.
Unfortunately the DIFTA match schedule was finalized before the date of the Nationals was announced. Good luck to those competing.
DIFTA - Match Results
Great weather, although a bit muggy (at least much better than anything we got here since the middle of July). Seven shooters showed up on Sunday morning.
During the match the air was almost perfectly still, except a couple of gusts of light, refreshing breeze, causing a couple of misses to absent minded shooters who enjoyed the refreshing effect and forgot to dope for any deviation of the pellet.
We shot a 60-shot match with two shots/target except for six offhand and six kneeling targets, which were shot once each. The average difficulty was around 28T. The top score of the day was shot by Mark Mayer, who won the Open/WFTF combined class.
Tom Strong won the Hunter class, followed by Vince Sempronio with only one point difference.
The next match will be Saturday, November 3.
See you there!
