First match of the 2016 IHMSA season at Cherokee Gun Club; results are now posted at: http://www.gaihmsa.org/Pages/CGCMRBody.html

in addition, results may be viewed locally at this link:

Looks like a decent turnout for the first match of the year. Us poor Yankees here in OH have to wait till next month for our first match and that depends upon the weather cooperating. Good start for the year.

Was in the 30s much of the day but little breeze, so not too bad! Excellent lunch as well. Plumb forgot to do any photos, but the Field Pistol line was chock-o-block full most of the day!

Tried the Flop position in UAS and found it right uncomfortable and hard to see through my glasses. Managed a 39, leaving the last ram standing. Thought the shot looked good, but.... Still no 40 in the logs.


Also seems to be time to clean the S&W 29-3 .44's bore. Shot it all last year without a scrubbing, but found all sorts of buildup after the match in the forcing cone and chamber throats! Don't know what changed....

Any feeling one way or another on the new format for the PDF copy of match report ?

OK 95, it'll be our little secret; Melvin won't hear of it from me

Bob, I like your format. I like to see the animal counts along with the final score in case equal scores are turned in. Get to see the reverse count that way. Our club, Logan Handgun Assoc. in Bellefontaine, OH used Lotus 1-2-3 years ago on our first computer and let the spreadsheet do the work of adding up the scores by animals and we have stuck with that format (now Excel) ever since. Looks great, keep up the good work but watch out for ole95.

Richard, you just would not believe the dedication of this Int. class spotter ! Just off shoulder surgery, barely able to stand, I made the drive over tomspotmfor my Amigos!,, Of course, the free lunch was also an incentive!

I was expecting to see you this month, couldn't say why. Bring your appetite, Sherri's and Ron's lunches are worth the drive. Ought to have a name. How about the "200 Yard Diner"?

"260", thanks for the kind words. I post a link to our website and then a PDF copy of the scores, some perfer the scores that way.....this month I stopped printing the webpage and exported the Text File to Excel for the PDF copy. I use the IHMSA software program as the basis for my report.......The IHMSA Software is one of the very best things that happened since the creation of IHMSA shooting.
