IDPA MATCH –April 25,
2010
Well contrary to the weather reports
yesterday, today turned out to be a great day for shooting. We had a low
turnout, only 9, who didn't believe the Weather Channel and wanted to shoot.
Since last weekend was the state IDPA match in Montgomery, we decided to go with several quick and fun stages.
We had 7 stages, but they moved along quickly, and some proved more difficult
than they looked. One was a two-gun match with pistol and shotgun, which was
just fun. We raised $60 for the range fund. Next months match will be run by
Grady and John, and as always promises to be interesting.. See you at next
months match.
