Centerfire Discussions / Jack Neary

It is with great sadness I report that Jack Neary passed this morning. Jack was at the shoot taking place at Shelby County this weekend.

For those who didn't know, Jack was a terrific friend to BR shooters in Canada. Not just a friend but a tireless mentor and promoter of all things BR. No matter how bad a shoot he was having or you might be having he could always see the bright side and offer words of encouragement to keep you going.

Hard to imagine how big a loss this is to the BR community. We are surely diminished. My thoughts are with his family and the hundreds, if not thousands, of friends he had made.

Attached photo is from the World Championships held here in Calgary in 2019.

Thanks to Cal and Grant and the helpers for making this match happen. Thanks to the Selkirk club for making the range available as well.  It was well run and went off without any glitches. I have received many compliments from the competitors that it was an excellent match. Many Thanks!

The AB Provincials are in the bag. Help in congratulating Dean Weger as your new Alberta Champion! Way to go Dean. You shot great!

We had a great turnout and numerous out of town shooters as far away as Ont, MB and BC. It was great to have everyone here.

BBQ smokies on Saturday for lunch was courtesy of Gary and his helpers, it was great and added a nice touch to the day.

Many thanks to all our many helpers including Tyler, Vic, Graeme, Brent, and of course the target crew and Keith who did the scoring.

Lastly thanks to the Rosebud Club for providing a terrific venue!

Results posted below.

Looking forward to seeing everyone next year.

More good news:

We are going to run a cash option for this event, whereby 100% of the funds collected will be returned to the shooters, with a payout to the top 5 shooters in the 2-gun.

15
Additional Information:

-There will be a BBQ lunch provided by the club on the Saturday right after the LV 100. All are welcome.
-Practice days on Thursday and Friday.
-There will be (2) Relays. If you want to share a bench with someone in particular you need to let me know in advance, otherwise the computer will assign bench sharing during the bench draw.

Thanks Bob. This helps a bunch in planning.

As to the BBQ idea, instead why not order about 10 pizzas for Saturday after the matches? Put an extra $20 on the entry fee to cover the costs. It is our experience that taking large gatherings to a restaurant after the matches never works that well. Plus you have 22 people who may or may not be suitable for civilized establishments!

Rosebud Silhouette & Benchrest Club will be hosting the Alberta Provincials August 8-9th.

This is shaping up to be one of the best attended matches we have ever held. Around 30 shooters are expected, you don't want to miss it.

This will be a traditional 2-gun event with:
LV 100 yards Saturday Morning
HV 100 yards Saturday Afternoon
HV 200 yards Sunday Morning
LV 200 yards Sunday Afternoon

All matches are 5 shot groups.

There will be a range supplied lunch on Saturday.

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

Camping is available, contact me for details.

I would also ask that you contact me to let me know you are coming, that helps plan for helpers and relays if I know how many are attending.

Thanks,

Rick
