thankyou canberra 1000yd BR members

Post by dg »

sunday saw the last 1000yd BR match for the year.

despite the challenging conditions, 7 competitors entered heavy gun and 9 attempted light gun.

during the year, numerous improvements were introduced by the canberra organisers. these included the addition of extra benches, modified and improved target frame design and set up, as well as many other changes, that have all contributed to making the day simpler and more enjoyable for all who attend.

Thankyou to dave groves, richard wild, clem payne, mick easton, jim clifford, hans hoitink and all other canberra members for their time and efforts at the home of australian 1000 LRBR.

cheers

Hi Dave

I know it has been said before but great effort on getting the postal up and going. It has been great to compare our results with the US and I think that next year with a full five matches and ten cards we should be able to bridge the gap a bit.

Well done to all involved and bring on 2010.
