Thirty-eight competitors enjoyed a magnificent weekend at the 2011 Michigan Long Range Regional. Both conventional "sling" and F-class shooters were well represented. We were also blessed with a host of new shooters.  Sixteen shooters showed up on Friday to establish or reconfirm zeroes. Thanks to all who helped set-up the range.

Saturday’s sign-up was full enough that we barely squeaked under the wire to continue our valued tradition of three-man relays, a system that minimizes time spent in the pits. Mike Ross proceeded to run a superb match. Thanks Mike.

The weather was tremendous, both Saturday and Sunday. The wind was light but "Graying tricky" both days. Brats, potatoes, beer, and mysterious sauces provided by Bob Lorenz and friends enhanced the Saturday evening festivities. Final winners of NRA Regional Metals and other significant scores are shown below:

1st Master Jim Grissom 1136-35X

1st EX/SS/MK Lucas Reist 1044-12X

High Junior Samantha Huhtala 1087-19X

High AROS Paul Larson 1164-39X

 

F-TR Winners L to R: Al Barnhart, Bronze; Brad Sauve, Gold; Jim Dietlein, Silver	F-Open Winnners L to R: Ted Webster, Silver; Tony Horvath, Gold	Any Rifle Winners L to R: Renzo Tormen, Bronze; Bob Steketee, Gold

Several items are worthy of note for next year:

* Our junior program is strong. Thank Jim Grissom and Bob Steketee. We now have juniors on national teams. And note that Samantha Huhtala, a new shooter, came in 2nd in the Master class.
