Elmira Rod & Gun club hosted ORSA's first score shoot of the season.
We had 14 shooters in attendance with some new faces on the line. The morning 100yd matches was relatively calm with a few rain showers and a tornado warning. We took shelter for a while, and had an early lunch thanks to Steve Hornsby and his BBQ skills! When the sun came out we finished up the 100yd, and Lenny McKenzie won  the morning matches with a 268. 
The afternoon matches at 200yd was a different story. Some sun, and lots of switchy wind. Brian Shoemaker came out on top of the 200yd with an impressive 257 score.
Brian also took top honors in the grand agg with a 518 total,  edging out Lee Graig by one.
Thank You to the volunteers on Saturday.

When it was all done Robb was the 2 gun winner.
Thanks to all the volunteers who helped out this weekend, and Elmira R&G club.

Elmira Rod and Gun hosted ORSA's first group shoot of the season. We had 12 shooters in attendance, with  "local legend" Bob Kerr showing up on Sat afternoon with a few words of wisdom. The wind wasn't our friend on Sat, and lack of wind on Sunday made it just as bad. It was always nice to catch up with everyone after the  winter season!!
Billy "the kid" Mitchell pulled out all the stops and took the 2-gun when it was all said and done.

Elmira Rod & Gun Club hosted ORSA'S "Fall Final" shoot this past weekend.
12 brave souls showed up to battle the unpredictable winds that show up in the fall at Elmira, and we weren't disappointed.  George and Vera Carter weren't seemed to be bothered by the wind, they just stuffed in more powder and took the early lead on Saturday morning. Stan "the man" hanging around!
Mark Robson put together the heavy gear, and took honors with a nice .2346 agg in the afternoon HV. Stan again hanging around!
Sunday came and all  H*LL broke loose. Flag tails standing straight up, switching with every blow, cold and damp. It was frustrating, but that is Benchrest !!!!
Stan Walter took the morning matches with a impressive .2667 agg. In any condition, that is great shooting.
Robbie MacLennan got some lunch into him, and threw down a .2853 agg to take top honors in the 200yd LV
When the rain stopped, and the trophies handed out, Stan Walter was again on top with the 2-gun. His second 2 gun in the last two shoots. Congratulations Stan on a great year of shooting!!!!
