Nice to see so many folks I know shooting well but I certainly would like a full report. 
Tyler if your reading, great show!

The weather must have been poor (?) what with the top scores almost 20 points shy.
Course difficulty was a Troyer 50 ?
Any ole information would be great/

I would think it would no more about the sport not enough information floating around maybe I can see I'm not looking in the right spot so they shot in Holbrook weekend I totally forgot about it I wanted to see what I've been missing there's a few guys here like yourselves the to really enjoy it I want to see what I'm missing what is a troyer 50. Is that like a par 5
 
I traveled from NC to AZ for the first time and stayed at a campground near the range. For a guy who grew up and has lived all his life in NC it was a treat.

The Phoenix Airgun Club were great hosts, and the course was quite challenging. Some tricky shots, swirling winds, and the environment made for some tired shooters at the end of each day. I ended up in a three way tie for second in open PCP with a 102, a point behind Bobby C who shot a combined 103 for a well-deserved open PCP win.

I'm sure that Garrett will get a match report out soon.

While out of the ordinary for FT national matches, there was a Sunday night banquet which was very enjoyable.

Right on. Thanks Scott and great shooting! So will you be incorporating anything they've done into next years event?

Pat, a Troyer is a points based system used to define a courses difficulty bases on target placement, kill zone size and weather conditions. Each target has a specific value, all target values are averaged to get a course difficulty rating. It was put together by multiple national champion Brad Troyer some years ago and has even been adopted by the world field target federation. Unfortunately there are no mulligans or handicaps so ti's up to you to practice and improve if you want to win.
 
Thanks for the picture, very Zen.

And just for fun Brad with his TX200

Brad ( like so many ) has done so much for airgun folks over the years, shoot's that TX like ringing a Bell but just another one of the nicest shooters you will meet. Meeting such people is yet another draw to the most fun you can legally have. ( FT )

Easy there amigo... we just wrapped up the weekend’s events. Now we are just getting back to our jobs, and families. Reports and pics and video don’t just happen overnight. There is no AoA conspiracy, and AAFTA is not lacking anywhere here. There are over 1000 pictures and they need to be edited down. Please check back on our website within the week. Thank you for your patience.
