For the benefit of the Novices:
Robert Frame has the 8 items you would need during a Match.
1. A wind flag
2. Cross sticks
3. Bulk Ammo
4. A timer (optional)
5. A Blow-tube or wiping items
6. A block of wood to hold your shots for record
7. Notice the yellow open breach indicator
8. A Mat or something to lie on. Concrete will wear blisters
Don't break the bank on this one starting out. Carpet or a
Blanket is just fine starting out.
IF YOU HAVE A RIFLE THAT SHOOTS SOFT LEAD BULLETS. STOP BY OUR PRE-MATCH PRACTICE
DAY ON FRIDAY. BUD AND CINDY WRIGHT STOPPED
BY WITH A TRAP DOOR. NOT MUCH SMOKE AND IT
KINDA SMELLED FUNNY WHEN IT WENT OFF.
BRING YOUR SOFT LEAD SHOOTING WHAT HAVE
YOU AND COME ON DOWN. "YOU'ALL COME"!

RANDY IS THE OTHER HALF OF THE BUTCH WILLIAMS/RANDY PRIDEMORE
DREAM TEAM. RANDY WAS SO PROUD WHEN HE SHOT HIS FIRST
31 MASTER SCORE...THEN WE WOKE HIM UP!

| Three components of a shot |
|
| Blow tubing to keep the powder fouling soft |
|
| Careful aim squeezing not pulling the trigger |
The precise moment the Rifle fires should always be a expected surprise.
Some shooters wipe between shots, but that is a personal choice.
|
| Most important the Follow Through |
You should never look up to see the hit until a second or so passes. You stand
a large chance of moving BEFORE the
bullet clears the Barrel. Notice the smoke, it's the spotters
job to mark the hit. Just relax and listen for the fulfilling
clang of lead on metal.
