Good afternoon all,

We had six shooters this very fine fall day.  Five of us shot for score, one shot as a participant.  The day started off chilly, but was pretty good by lunch.

Because of COVID, we only shot matches June, September and October.  So I didn’t have to change my spreadsheet for what I truly hope is just one screwy year, I changed the March column heading that we didn’t shoot to October so I didn’t have to change as many formulas. 

In a normal year, we would have shot March through September, a total of seven possible matches and counted your best six of the seven scores for the season total so not to penalize shooters for having to miss a match.  Using my match director prerogative, I carried over the spirit of that rule and dropped the lowest score of the three matches we did shoot.  In a normal year, the best possible score would be 1200 points for each of the categories of vintage modern rifle, modern rifle, modern pistol, vintage rifle and vintage pistol, 2400 points for the modern and vintage combined categories and 4800 points for the season.  This year, the maximum point totals were 400, 800 and 1600.

The winners of this year are:

I’ve enjoyed being the match director this year and I’m looking forward to being the director again next year.  With luck, COVID will be contained and ammo and reloading components will be easier to find.

Thanks
Brian Sims
