I hope spectators are OK... looking to learn about Field Target and this is too close to home to miss.

What a great shoot, for some.
Well organized and well run as seems the norm int the N.E. League.

What really stood out on the course were two details.
First , strings were held to the lane markers by captive hooks.
Secondly, timers at each lane similarly held by zip ties on captive hooks .

Simple details that made the shooting less stressful.
Well done guys.

Hello everybody

So yesterday I attended my first Field Target event (just a spectator) and despite the cool misty rain, and variable/swirling breeze, the camaraderie and hospitality were warm and inviting.

I would like to extend a special thank you to Geoffrey and Dave for organizing the event as well as for having a club so close to my home (lucky for me). Also, thank you to Leo for the introduction and warm welcome to the club. I believe John (perhaps others?) is the resident artist and painted some beautiful targets… a shame they get marked up from pellet strikes (an incentive to only hit the impact/kill zone).

There were out of state participants from New Jersey, Rhode Island, Connecticut and Maine. Competition was strong and I was impressed by “sharpshooter” Karen who had the high score of the day… not a surprise as I don’t think I saw her miss a shot while I watching each of the competitor pairs shoot.

Thank you for the welcoming comradery, playful banter, air gun topics, heated discussions about Excel spreadsheets and calculations… just to name a few things.

Glad you had a great time . Exciting isn't it ! bet you got home and could not wait to shoot whatever, imagining it was a FT target .

Glad you enjoyed watching the match. Now all you need to do is to tune your Wildcat down to 20fpe and shoot Hunter class. Or, just dive in and get a dedicated .177 FT rig. That would be the more fun option!!

Hope to see you at another match.

I did find single shot trays on eBay... so the other detail to address as I get prepared.
