Thanks to everyone who was able to turn out for the match on Saturday--we had a great time, and the temperature is actually getting bearable now!

Thanks to everyone who came out on Saturday--the humidity was a killer, but we had a great match just the same! Congratulations to Dewey Hales, who swept both the GSM and the Modern Military categories with scores of 276.01 and 290.05. Excellent shooting!
Remember that we still have five matches remaining in 2016, so even if your match count for the year is zero, you can still qualify for the drawing. All DEGS members who fire in at least 5 matches in the year are automatically entered into our annual Garand drawing.
It was another hot one on Saturday, but the die-hards were there and they got the match done. Tom Wareham had the top score in the Vintage category with his K98 Mauser. And Chris Hymen topped the Open class with his Remington 700 in .223.
If you haven't tried the sniper match yet, I highly recommed checking it out next time for a change of pace. It is our only match dedicated to scoped rifles. It is also a timed match--you only have 20 seconds per shot. And, it is our only team event--one shooter fires while another spots and calls out corrections.
