Congratulations to Rob Seemann on winning the Tony Boyer Benchrest Shooter of the year.  He was awarded this at the NBRSA Nationals in Holton Michigan.  Rob also collected his 11th Hall of Fame point at this shoot winning the Unlimited 200.  If you do not know, it takes 10 points to make the Hall of Fame.  Great job Rob and congratulations.

Here they are.

If whoever will still be showing up early (those coming from Holton)  please text me.  1-204-570-1956. 

I have been asked about camping at the range as early as Monday.  Just talked with Grant and it will be fine.  Many of you will be away for a while so we want to make it as easy and economical as possible for you that have been away.  If those of you would call me say the day before so I can give more details of where to park that would be great.  I will try and get something drawn up showing where you will be able to park.

Just a heads up and I know things can change before the match.  Life can toss curves at us.

Presently I have 22 shooters who have said they will attend.  We are capping it at 2 full relays which is 28.  If you have not mentioned you are coming, message me at 1-204-570-1956.

I will be sending out an inquiry about mid to 3rd week in August re bench sharing.  Also with me being 3 hours away it is hard to plan a barbecue.  I am wondering thoughts on say making a reservation  at a venue if enough interest.  Please let me know your thoughts.  I was going to maybe check Larters Golf Course if they are free that weekend for a Saturday.  If not, not a big deal.  We will be in touch soon.

Talking with Grant he said how nice it would have been to have more pictures of the people who used to shoot in Selkirk.  Well in my time I have taken a few but decided to take a few more to add some new faces and some old ones as well.  Enjoy.

The match is one for the record books.  This year due to the upcoming BRSC Nationals in Selkirk and a busy August, it was decided to hold the Provincials in July.  One could not have asked for a better weekend.  Temps in the morning were about 22 deg right up to touching 30 deg in the early afternoon.  Humidity, well that stayed in the low to mid 70% range all weekend.  Surprisingly, with the humidity and the torrential downpour late Thursday night the mirage did not appear.  Wind, well that had its moments.  Saturday for 100 yards was pretty dang nice.  Sunday, not so nice.  It was not the gale force wind that we had in May but it was it's usual Selkirk windshield wiper effect winds.  The flags would not settle down for one moment.  If you thought you would get that nice green or orange down the entire length out to 200, wishful thinking.
When the smoke cleared after both days we had a few small groups and a few oopsies.
The smallest of the groups were 3 screamer groups shot this weekend.
Dwayne Cyr  HV 100  .082
Grant Schick   HV 200  .189
Rod Jack  HV 200  .193
The largest of the groups was an unfortunate oops and ended up with a 4" penalty.  Tough day when one forgets to go back up to the record from the sighter.  Sorry Tory.
The story of the weekend as you will see below was the HV 100 clinic put on by Dwayne Cyr.  He was steady in LV 100 but turned it up a notch in the HV.  He shot an impressive .1652 HV agg.  This agg will be submitted to the records committee for verification of a potential new BRSC HV 100 record which I believe currently stands at a .1728. 
Dwayne's .1652 is also the new Selkirk range record which was currently held by Tyler Edmunds of AB .1678

You can always change the headers on Bughole to your range and region.


Yah, I have just not taken the time to set Chelsea's pc up for that.

Well folks.  What a hum dinger of a weekend it was at the Selkirk Wildlife Range.  If you were not there you missed out on some great conditions (insert sarcasm).  The warmest of the weekend was Friday with a high of 14 and the usual winds out the North.  Those north winds brought the cold air with them into Saturday and Sunday.   Saturday morning started out with temps about 5 deg and got to about 9 deg before it began to drop back down before we were done shooting for the day.  Sunday started out about the same but was cooler throughout the day.  Needless to say there were torque, gloves coming out and hoods pulled over ones head.  The winds were just like your windshield wipers put on high.  They almost never settled down to give you a chance to have a condition.  If it did, which was maybe for a group or 2 some lucked out.  Grant Schick took advantage of that and shot a screamer in HV 100 with an .096.  Trying to figure if one was in tune or not, well who would have known.

All in all, the small group that we are, we had many laughs along the way played to the tune of "Bang Your Head".

Thanks to Chelsea and Simaran (sp?) for scoring and running targets and to those who helped to set up and tear down the frames.

Next match is in July and look forward to warmer temps (hopefully).  Enjoy the results from the fun filled windy cold weekend.

Thought I would share.  This was my first ever NBRSA Nationals held at MillCreek Range in Kansas.  A time I will never forget along with the look from Tony when he and Faye were in the golf cart.  Rick P introduced us to Tony.  I had my rifle over my shoulder, Tony proceeded to tap the butt end of my stock.  The look I will never forget from Tony.  I will never forget it.

Anyhow I had this shirt signed by the greatest male and female shooters in SR Benchrest.  The targets were not great but I had to save them for myself and to look back when I struggle.

I still have that rifle and I believe every but one 2 gun i have won was with that rifle which I still have.
