Bowling Pin Shooting Match begins

Hi;

I've been waiting for the start of the monthly bowling pin shooting matches since last October.  It's finally arriving.  Sunday morning, cold, rain or shine.  I think it's going to be cold and sunny.  So, I'll be dressed in long johns, heavy socks, maybe my hunting pants and shirt (they keep me warm) and a big heavy coat.

This year the guys that run the morning shoot are a bit short handed with helpers. I will be assisting them this year.  Probably registering shooter and taking care of the money. But, I may get to run the timer for the match scoring.  That's more fun because I get to watch all the shooting. If I'm registering people I have to pay attention to them, the cash. I also call out the name of the next shooter so they are ready to come up to the line after the active shooter is done.

I practiced last week with my 9mm auto.  This week I need to get out with my .22 and shoot some plates.

One benefit of helping out, I do not have to pay to shoot. My score will be posted in the results, but because I did not pay, I will not be eligible for a prize if I come in 1st - 3rd.  I think that is okay.

I'll report back after the match.
Oh! The Wednesday Night Trap league starts up for it's 8 week run beginning in April. Nice :)
Take care, good shooting and good hunting.
