Club News Holiday season is here meaning many of the shoot dates are affected. The Skeet shoot is on Saturday Dec. 17th and the Trap shoot is on the 18th. The Bud Wolfe is on Saturday the 31st. The annual NFL shoot is being held on Saturday Dec. 3rd. What a nice turnout of 58 shooters for the Bill Merritt Shoot. Rodrigo Mehich, Maximo Olivieri, and Lucio Gomez led the field with 96’s with Rodrigo being declared the winner. Alex Riera also turned in a nice score of 95. The Skeet shoot saw Bruce Gordon lead the 12 gauge, Doubles, and HOA. Luke Ford had a really nice day winning the 20, 28, and .410 events with three scores of 49x50. Nice shooting Luke! In Trap Ken Carlson again led the Singles this time with a 98. Yu Sheng Wu followed Ken with a 96. Peter Mills and Steve Norris broke 94 and 91 respectively to lead the Handicap. Jerry Bryant led the Doubles with an 88. The turnout for the Big Kids Charity Shoot was good with 46 shooters participating. I think the first
day of Duck Season may have affected our turnout. Next year it will be held in October. Former manager of our Markham facility, Holden Kriss contacted me informing me his facility near Sebastian will soon be holding Trap and Skeet shoots. They recently completed construction of three combo trap and skeet fields at his Indian River County Shooting Range. Don’t know when I can make it up there to see it but I want to pass on a warm welcome them. Adding another club where both ATA and NSSA shooting are available is always a welcome event. The club insurance was renewed recently and the we are doing well with over $9,000 in funds. There are no major purchases expected in the near future. We have a meeting scheduled on January 4th. Nominations for Officer positions are now open. If anyone is interested in serving our club and the shooting community in general please show up at the meeting. See you at the Club. 4
