AA Field Target Match Match Results, March 13, 1999 Setting the Right Course by David Still George Gardner prepared Saturday's match course to be similar to the second day of the Georgia Southern Regionals.  The course served as a time trial to determine match length for the 40 target course. The course was found to be well designed allowing a challenge to both the Spring-Piston and Precharged competitors.  Congratulations to George Gardner winning the match with a score of 38 of 40 targets.  Way to go George.  Ken Hughes took first place in the Precharged Class with a score of 36 of 40 targets. Winston Smith won first place honors in the Spring Piston Class with a score of 27 of 40 shots.  Bennie Davis took second place with a score of 16 of 40 targets.  Bennie, sorry to hear that your scope shifted. Robert Crocker's action came loose from his stock during the beginning of the match.  This allowed a once- in-a-lifetime opportunity for yours truly to experience a win over Crocker.  Half way through the match, Robert made field changes to tighten his metal action to his stock which increased his accuracy for the remainder of the match.  David Still continued shooting head-to-head with Robert maintaining a two-point lead to take third place in the Precharged Class. ________________________________    Preparing for GSR Saturday Clean up, March 14, 1999 Special thanks to Walt Roller for spending a weekend preparing the lanes and sight-in areas for pebble stone.  During Saturday's (3/13) match, competitors were surprised to find that all lanes were well groomed with pebble stone seating areas and the sight-in range was completely resurfaced with stone. Great job Walt. After Saturday's match, volunteers assisted Robert Crocker in erecting a new tarp which extended the sight-in are an additional 60 percent.  Thanks to Doug Vinson, Ken Hughes, Winston Smith, Walt Roller, David Still, Bennie Davis and George Gardner  the range extension was completed in less than 30 minutes. Please note that George Gardner has set aside the following dates for clean up efforts. March 20 Lane clean up and seating area work April 24 Sight in range cleanup May 15 Target preparation & fine tuning
