Ok Gang, the moment you have all been waiting for! The Stampede Shootout is imminent. Taking place July 11-14. I am projecting a great turnout for this event. Don't miss it!
Thursday July 11 is a practice day and we will run BR201 starting about 1pm. It will be part classroom and part live firing. Topics include; brass prep, gun handling, bench setup, target strategy
Friday July 12 is a practice day and "Ask Hugh a Question Day" - A fan favourite.
Saturday July 13 will be Sporter 100 in the morning and LV 100 in the afternoon. There will be a club supplied BBQ and soft drinks after the matches. All are welcome.
Sunday July 14 will be HV 100 in the morning and Unlimited 100 in the afternoon. Trophy presentation to follow the matches.
Camping for the practice days and matches are allowed, just let me know in advance if you plan to camp.
I would also like a head count so we know how much food to prepare for the BBQ, and also how many helpers we need for the match.

I forgot to mention we will have a buy/sell area in the clubhouse. With around 25 shooters coming you may find a new home for your BR goodies!

A note to let everyone know you DO NOT need the K Country Park Pass to shoot at Rosebud.

I am pleased to say the the Stampede Shootout was a great success! Great weather and a great turnout. Shooters from BC and as far as Manitoba joined us. The BR201 school was a resounding success, taking up about 3 hours on Thursday afternoon, and a lot of information to help shooters on their path to BR greatness was shared. The big winner was Hugh Williamson!
Thanks go out to all: Peter, Alex, Steve, Wally, Carolyn, Sue, Sheila, Catherine for all the support running targets, scoring, and preparing the BBQ. Of course thanks to the Rosebud Club for the use of the venue which gets better every year.
Next up is the BRSC Nationals on August 3-4. Don't miss it!
