Vintager Gunners Cup 2016
I am posting this in response to Opening Day asking about the Vintagers this past weekend.
Please don't make this about comparing one shoot to the other/ etc/ etc.
Just reporting my experience.
This was a very good shoot. Well run/ great targets/ fantastic grounds. Hopkins has a fantastic facility.
I believe there were a total of 117 to 120 individual shooters. I don't know number of reshoot/ reentry/ number of events shot etc. But 117 to 120 people shot.
Venders were good. (I am not a good person to ask re: vendors)
Two courses for prelim events. (small bore and large bore) then totally separate course/ totally different ground for 100 bird main. Great flurry, two practice five stands. Trappers on each station and at each event all weekend and they knew there stuff. All were very experienced trappers.
Targets were great. One of the best sub gauge courses I have ever shot.
Great weather. Hot on Friday but low 70s Sat and Sunday. Sunny nice breeze.
Also heard good things re: the rifle competitions/ events.
Overall a great restart for the Vintagers/ Vintage Gunners Cup.
Hotels about 15 minutes away. Fair prices for hotels/ fair eateries.
Cant wait til next years event.
