The Duke Claybusters are in second place, the third week of the Big Sky. In the Spokesman the Jr. Team this week is Colin 24, Kamen 21, Ryan 21, and Wyatt Hathaway 20 for a total of 86. Camas Jr. Team score is Colin 24, Kamen 21, and Ryan 21 for a total 66. There are 26 Jr. Teams in the Spokesman and I think we are 13th. Camas we are seventh out of 22 Teams. This is the second week of the Camas with our scores in the 20s we well be gaining fast. Remember good grades make good scores.

We had 14 shooter today. Beautiful day. Sun out and 34 degrees, with north winds, not too bad. Charley sniveled a little and let us older shooters win today, thank you, Charley. “A” class was won by Lonny with 25X25 and 22X25 total of 47X50. “B” Class by count back was James Daniels 22X25 and 16X25 for total 38X50. Wally Dinning was close in “A” class with 23X25 and 21X25 total 44X50.

Good to have Jake Jacobson back out shooting, also Dave Jurgensen. They were very tough or hungry in the Annie Oakley’s. I wish some of these guys would eat a meal before shooting the Annie, most of them are real hungry to win.

In the Spokesman shoot the team; Lonny 25X25, Colin 24X25, Bill B. 24X25, Bill D. 24X25 for total 73X75, only three scores count. Jr Team is still in second place in the Big Sky Shoot and the adult team in sixth.

Shoot safe and keep your powder dry.
