I’d like to thank Ron Michon and his scoring team for running a great match and getting the scores out quickly and accurately. Ron runs his matches so you can shoot all 240 shots (or 320 if conventional) in one day. It’s hard on the body, but it’s nice to be able to squeeze a 2 day regional into one day if you have a conflict on one of the days. We had good conditions in the morning with iron sights and at the end of the irons match Erik Hoskins and myself were tied at 1170-58. I won the tie breaker by having the higher score on all of the 100 yard targets combined. In the afternoon conditions deteriorated, the wind picked up and the mirage became difficult to handle. Hoskins showed his skill with scope and mirage and slowly distanced himself from the rest of the field to take the Any Sight Agg and the Grand Agg.

Irons Winner by tie breaker:
Dan Holmes 1170-58

Any sights winner:
Erik Hoskins 1179-66

Overall winners:
Erik Hoskins 2349-124
Dan Holmes 2338-112
Charlie Daniels 2310-80

    Congratulations to the winners!

    Ron does an outstanding job running these matches. It is a little grueling, but shooting the entire 2400 in one day is a lot of fun.
