SKEET SHOOT - Those of us that compete in the OVPR Smoothbore Woods Walk would like to get some practice shooting pigeons before the rendezvous. We can do it on off Saturdays or maybe squeeze it in on a weekday. If this is something you would like to participate in please let me know what dates would work best for you.
Saturdays Sept 12th, Sept 26th, or Oct 10th? Or any Wednesday?
LAST MEETING – We discussed and clarified a few items at our August meeting.
Mulligans – On woods walks, every shooter is given one mulligan that can be used to re-shoot at a target he / she missed. It can also be used to re-shoot when a target is hit but all possible points were not achieved. In such cases the score on the initial shot is void. If you miss the second shot the score is zero.
Sight aids – As we are a pre 1840’s club, Only clear safety glasses may be used. Tinted lenses, diopters, hooded sights, aperture / peep sights may not be used during the scheduled club shooting competition / events. Prescription “transition” lenses are permitted.
