June 2025 ... SVFTC Match Report

The weather was beautiful today, warm and breezy. The match started at 65 degrees and only climbed into the mid 70' by lunch time.

Scott was attending a family memorial in Tahoe and was not able to attend. It took a whole bunch of us, but the match went on!! I arrived about 7:30 to find Chris K and Marty already on the field with concrete blocks unloaded and targets being set. Tak and Kevin were extra early helped set the course.
Chris set a moderately tough course up today, but the real challenge was intermittent gusts that reached 15mph for almost a minute at a time towards the end of the course. Using your time to wait for a lull helped. There were a fair amount of targets in the 35 plus range.

We practiced for about 1/2 hour before the match. Breezy but quiet spots during the morning to test accuracy, and dope.

I think we found all the targets with the tiniest kill zones for the close targets. There were at least 3 up close and personal!

Marty ran our pre-match safety meeting and folks got squaded up, we ended up with 18 shooters today

Everyone seemed to have a good time today, we had a visitor interested in seeing what we're up to, come on back next month Glen!

TODAY RESULTS by CLASS, NAME & SCORE. 14 lanes with 2 targets and one forced lane with 3 targets; 62 points possible.

We finished up just after noon, hotdogs were put on the grill and a picnic with potato salad, cookies, chips and dill spears was set up while the rest of the crew broke down the yard quickly.


Thank you for making the June SVFTC match. And a very SPECIAL THANKS to Chris K and Marty G for stepping up and making the match happen smoothly in the absence of our fearless match director!!!

PS.
All the siblings and a few cousins & friends joined up in TAHOE for a family memorial. We went up on a local mountain top and scattered our mothers ashes to the Sierra Nevada mountains.
This was in perfect timing to what was on June 21 my Fathers 100th birthday who passed in 1992. Fitting mom got rejoined with our father in the same manor & place these many years later. :cry::love:
