This was originally scheduled as KD, but due to low preregs it was changed to a 25m event. We had 13 shooters join us at Mountain Top Range in McMinnville! Many thanks to our hosts at Mountain Top for the use of their range and classroom  O0

Everyone was on time and we covered the entire Saturday COF and nailed the Three Strikes thanks to The Dude, Cleveland and Maximum Effort. The story resonated with our students - well done!

Marksmanship instruction was well received by the majority of the shooters and the results told the story with Rifleman scores on Saturday afternoon.

On Sunday, Ball & Dummy opened a lot of eyes to the minutia of marksmanship. When it was all done we had many men amongst us were knew what they were about:
Caleb        - 231, 223 and 242
Adam         - 230, 215 and 235
Ben          - 226
Cleveland    - 236, 241 and 226
Lucas        - 235, 242 and 232
Eagle Keeper - 232 and 233
Sam          - 222 and 233

All in all, a solid event. Thanks to the cadre for providing great instruction and attention to our shooters throughout the weekend. Congrats to ZJF for his promotion to IIT1 - looking forward to more events with you!
The difference between a novice and a master: the novice does it until they get it right. The master does it until they can't get it wrong.

Awesome and safe shoot.  It's great to see so many back and even better to see that they brought friends.  It was nice to see so many fathers and kids shooting and instructing on Father's Day weekend.


ArmyVet and Special_K teach the prone postion


There was plenty of help to get into slings for the first time.


ZJF did a fantastic job coaching shooters this weekend!


Erica models one of our newer shirts for me.  Looks great!


Erica and Ben were just one of the father/kid duos this weekend.  I wish I got Ben, Sam, and Brad too - 3 generations were here and all shot well.


Grandfather and granddaughter = awesome weekend


Rich shot great - I'm sure he'll be back


Matthew and Robert soaked everything in too. 


Oscar and Micheal came all the way from AL - thanks for making the trip and good luck in ROTC, Oscar!


Michael and Jim in prone - looks good


Maximum Effort and The Dude show us how to shoot standing


Congratulations, Sam!  Great score


Caleb and a few others are chasing 250.  He got tied for closest this weekend with a 242!


What - our National Coordinator can shoot too?  Not too shabby, Cleveland - 241!

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
