Tony, I think you meant ftr and fsa?

Sorry Josh,....that's the early signs of senility.
Corrected now

And the rumor of the day is Rod and Mark are not shooting the last range tomorrow to give others a "fair" chance.

With the forecast tomorrow of 35-50kmh winds, thunderstorms and rain, maybe we might not be shooting???

Now for todays report.

For the first range today, conditions were nearly perfect at 700m. For most of us, the wind stayed at around 1 minute of wind, with perfect sighting, not much of a change in wind settings, perfect conditions for great scores. 4 shooters scored 60.9 in F Open with the solitary 6 for them often being a minor vertical correction. Some others (half dozen or so who scored 60.7) said their elevation was getting a slight drift in the conditions.
For the 1st 800m range, conditions had picked up so there were not many high score, apart from Ben Ferraras 60.8.

For the last 800, range, some copped some relatively bad conditions with a few points lost. Most shooters got rained on and heavy flags penalised some peoples scores.

Tomorrows forecast is for very heavy winds, up to 50 kmh, with rain and morning thunderstorms. The forecast weather could cause a change in leader boards if the weather man is correct. It should be an interesting day.

Thanks Rod

Good luck all

Awesome display yesterday Rod.

The weatherman says rain between about 9 and 10am. That should keep you out of the 30km Norwesterlies for a bit!

We are currently in the middle of a storm after a ceasefire was called halfway though my 1st range. It is bucketing rain and very strong gusting winds at times. Shooting is due to restart at 10.00am but rain and wind still forecast through the day.

Not sure what's happened yet. The NRAA results are showing the Queens Agg but without the last 600. Doesn't seem to have been enough rain to call it off, so probably just the normal delay in posting results?

Just got off the phone from Rod.
He won Open
Apparently 600 was shot. 500 was canned.
Not sure on any other results.

Again, well done Rod. You have had a great year on the range.

Well done Rod Davies, Mark Fairbairn, Brett Bond and Susie Ryan .

That's an odd way to handle the weather interruption - how do those who completed a reasonable score at 500 feel about it? Or did the day start at 600?
