The 6TH and last regular scheduled shoot of the season held Sept 30th had 21 participants, 18 shooters / 3 onlookers and was a great turnout considering being the Archery deer opener and the very windy conditions. 8 were members, 10 non-members. 5 shooters turned in a score for the season long championship. We also had 3 new shooters to the event, and 1 pre-teen shooter. Results of the shoot and current championship standings (match director removed from the running by default) can be located on the LRD group facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/groups/986239014763951/

2017 SEASON SUMMARY

In this 5th year of the event going “live”, we had the best LRD season ever in 2017 with dramatic increases in every category through the 6 events held. We averaged 20 shooters per match, had 23 new shooters to the event. There were 123 entries (44 members and 79 non members) with 15 spectators a total of 138 participants.
We upgraded numerous targets (which accounted for the highest but needed expense) reformed the berms, brush was cleared along the range for better access, line of sight, and cleaner appearance. The firing line was adjusted to allow for more positions, better communication, and increased safety. Additional upgraded Wind flags were also added, and a season long championship with awards was established, along with the event being a part of the club championship.

Thanks to everyone that came out and shot, helped with setup / tear down of the course, donated time, effort, and materials and promoted the event by telling a buddy or sharing the event with others so as the shoots can improve and move forward into 2018.
