It was awesome to be a part of the shooting community that gathered at Lone Butte Fish and Wildlife club this past weekend. Our squad (3) had the greatest group of shooters from across Western Canada. It was great to shoot with the Saskatchewan guys, the Alberta folks, and the rest of us from BC. We had the best RO's in Geoff and Marlin, (and Grant). They were tireless! I don't know how they did the job they did and then shoot so well , too. Tyler was our hi tech scorekeeper and did a great job keeping track of how we did.
Of course it wouldn't have happened without the dedication of the two Brians! Having helped in a small way setting up the stages I had an insight into the mind of Brian McCoy and how he plans stages. He is a devious man for sure, really pushing us to keep up with his never ending ingenuity and craftiness. The array of props and targets was impressive. We had bird throwers, clamshells, bird flippers, tracked targets, and 10 new AR500 pepper poppers (Thanks Brian Williams, our club president!!)
Oh, and the prize table! I have never seen so many guns given away as I did on Sunday. Thanks to all the sponsors who donated.
Ok, now here are some random photos. I am sorry, it was really difficult to keep track of everyone's names, what you won and what your plaque was for. Please excuse me for that. Hopefully full results will be published soon. I can't wait for next year.
Definitely felt like it's time to update some of my gear though.
