Way to Go Bill! Congratulations!!! :) Al & Penny

Thanks for sharing Gordon, Penny and I are looking forward to Spring and our new Eck 10X Sporters! Happy New Year, Al

Congratulations Blanco! A 250 is always special and the first one is especially so. May there be many more. Al

"My intention here was for someone to consider the problem and come up with a solution..." Pete, you are making a problem where non exist!!! Al

A while ago in the post titled "Wind, Wind and more Wind", the use of lasers was mentioned to help in setting out wind flags. I had never heard of this and of course rushed out and bought a couple for Penny and I. Ray Hill was nice enough to make a couple of very nice custom stands to hold our...

CONGRATULATIONS KEN! Al & Penny

HI Jeff, Thanks for the laser info, photos, and links. I bet there will be a few more lasers at next years matchs. Al

Thanks Jeff, Great idea! I can see a rush on green lasers. Al

Hi Jeff, "I also use a green laser to set them. Same way every time." Tell me more about that laser please. Never have seen one used to set flags, sounds interesting. Al

Ahh, I get it now Wilbur. I agree. Perhaps a combination of a good gun and finding the right ammo to feed it? I am out of the lot of ammo I have been using for the past few years so the Great Ammo Hunt begins again. There have been some good posts on this thread, I think we have all learned...

Ha, Hambone I suspected you were a BS'er, now I know! ;) Believe me, I say this jokingly and in the best of good humor. :D Going back aways in this thread Wilbur seemed to be saying I was shooting a special gun. Perhaps a "hummer"? Out of our small group of around 10 shooters that regularly...

Hi bloodhound, Yes, this is an interesting discussion. Thanks for starting this Hambone. I think we should have an annual Wind Shooting discussion. New people are coming on board all the time and shooting in the wind is a big bug-a-boo to most new shooters. Most old shooters too! Besides, us...

Wind may be one of the most discussed subjects in RFBR. It kind'a tells you something about how frustrating a bit of wind, a tiny breeze even can effect the flight of the bullit. Here are a few more random thoughts in no particular order of importance... If your flags have both tails and...

Hi Guys, When I gave my answer to Hambone's question I was thinking a Match time limit. I shoot IR50/50 3 gun that has a 30 minute time limit and IR Unlimited that has a 20 minute time limit. 30 minutes is a long time, 20 minutes goes by in a flash. If you are practicing then you can wait out...

Hi Hambone, Ken is being modest, he is one of the better shots in our game. My setup is slightly different than Ken's. I use five wind flags and one Wind Probe. I space the flags slightly closer to each other near the bench, with the probe about one-third of the way down range. I slightly...

It was good to see such a large turnout for the last Holbrook of the season. Good job Paul! My friend Ray Hill has a saying..."The conditions were very 'sporty'." Boy were they ever, my new John Deere hat went flying more than once. Congrats to Todd for the agg win and a big congratulations to...

We'll be there.

Hi Michael, I'll add our sincere thanks for running the Easthampton IR matches, great job! It's great to see comparatively new shooters doing so well. Congratulations all! Bill, I think Maryellen's brownies are real awesome killer treats. Her contributions to the Easthamton matches are much...

Hi Tuna, Penny and I use Wick's flags that are starting to show their age. Just like me I guess. We set out five flags along with a WindProbe. We space the flags slightly closer near the bench and slightly further apart near the target. We place the probes about one third off the way downrange...
