26 people braved the... DRY weather (perhaps a little cool).... to shoot doubles on Friday.

After the dust settled, yours truely ended up on top with a 98x100 and Frank Stewart finished RU with a 96. The rest of the details will be settled by shootoff tomorrow.

12 gauge and 28 gauge flies tomorrow. Unfortunately I will be trading my shotgun for a pull cord and refereeing the rest of the weekend.

More results tomorrow, time permitting.

Regards,
Brad.

The weather was beautiful Saturday. Warm and sunny with light winds at worst.

Scores were fairly high as a result, with at least 5 100x100s in the two events today.

Marc-Andre Jodoin was the last man standing in the shoot off of 12 Gauge 100x100s.

Jacob Coffin from Upstate NY, shot his first 100x100 in the 28 Gauge and outlasted Jodoin to win the shootoff.

Jodoin is leading the High Overall race at a perfect 200x200 and is the last shooter in the running for the $1000 bonus for 400x400.

Well, so much for the dry and good weather. Sunday brought in cold, wet and windy.

Despite the bad weather, the hot shooters stayed hot. In the 20 Gauge Marc-Andre Jodoin put up his 3rd 100x100 of the weekend and Jacob Coffin shot his first ever 20 gauge 100x100. Coffin again beat out Jodoin in the shootoff.

The weather did not improve for the .410 as Jodoin tried to complete is 400x400 and the $1000 bonus for accomplishing the feat. Unfortunately, after over 325 targets, Jodoin finally had a target get by him.

Max Lemay from Montreal finished as .410 champ with a 98x100 with Jodoin finishing as runner up with a 97x100.

Jodoin won the HOA with an excellent 397x400, with Jacob Coffin taking runner up with a 392x400.
