Saturday, February 12, was a real Winter Match. We had 12 hardy shooters, 1 full relay.
It was cold when the match started and didn’t improve any as the day went on; 22 degrees when we started, and 19 when we finished. There was light snow, and the wind blowing it around a little bit made for even more wintry conditions. The driveways were very icy. Aaron Kohler got stuck, but Gary Mabis got in his truck and pulled him straight out with little difficulty.
However, the cold weather didn’t keep the shooters from posting some pretty impressive scores.
Mike King took top honors with 385-7X. In a close duel for the second and third spots, Mark Richard Creedmoored Mike Habel. Both had 363’s, but Mark registered 7X’s to Mike’s 3X’s. (Mike Habel, the bionic man, with his new and improved body parts and his ‘scoped rifle has become a force to be dealt with.)
Season Aggregates:
Mike King 1155-24X
Mark Richard 1112-18X
Mark Walters 1105-12X
The top Junior is Marshall Rohrbach with an aggregate of 1084-11X, followed by Kileen Shaffer with a 939-2X.
Thanks to Mark Walters for running the match.
The final 100 yard match for this season will be Saturday, March 12th. Hopefully it won’t be as cold – but this is Indiana after all….
