[straightaway]

Another great day for shooting in North Carolina. Only a little of the predicted rain dampened just a few of us with most of it coming on the last field of Handicap for the final squad. Great scores were shot in all three events with 100 winning singles, 96 and 98 getting punches in the caps and four tied with 95s for doubles. Plenty of fun was had by all with a LOT of good natured ribbing going around.

We had 23 shoot singles, 19 for caps and a dozen for doubles. Targets were a little sporty with the spring breeze moving them whenever it took a notion, a worm burner here and a moon rocket there, kept us all on our toes. Some were ready to start when it was their turn, others were not....

Now, I will state that I am ashamed, I was strong armed and placed under duress to settle this mess. I was attacked by management and other TuTu wearing competitors and coerced into flipping to decide the outcome. I am embarrassed.

As usual, we couldn't do this without the faithful. I'd start naming them only I don't want to take a chance on forgetting anyone. Please, take the opportunity to lend a hand when you can.

More and more targets will be in the air soon as we enter a full schedule going forward. Please support as many NC clubs as you can. I guarantee there are great people at each and every one of them.

See you next time wherever it is, Until then, be safe. Dan
