A dull and foggy day with a drizzle of rain. The house is banked in with rolling clouds, which rise now and then to show the dreary curves of the moor, with thin, silver veins upon the sides of the hills, and the distant boulders gleaming where the light strikes upon their wet faces. –The Hound of the Baskervilles, Arthur Conan Doyle.
Well that pretty much sums up last night at the Hopkinton Prone Matches. By far the most fog and poorest visibility in which any of us have shot. Despite the poor visibility, myself and Erik Hoskins tied with a 399-28x and George Pantazelos took the number one slot with a 400-28…a very good score in such dense fog. Complete results can be viewed here.
After the match we played a few games of pool in the clubhouse and chowed on some delicious birthday cake baked for me by Loraine Lee.
