Post by: Michigan Flinter on May 31, 2009, 05:34:07 AM

  You are invited to an Over the Log Shoot June 7 th. at Broken Lock Muzzlelosders just south of Alma Mi. 1266 N. Ely Hwy  Alma Mi 48801 . We will shoot 15 targets and a blind shingle . Pay back three places for each relay and winner takes all on the shingle. There is a midday break for lunch prepared by the club for a freewill offering. For somemore spice there is a quater side bet each match with best "X" taking the pot.  Come up early plenty of camping space with water and hooters. Looking forward to seeing you.  Eric D. Lau   989-235- 3724  Riverdale Mi.

 A blind shingle is you have a cedar shingle or paneling painted black you take your knife and cut an "X" on it any place on the shingle that suits you. post it at sixty yards  WITH NO SPOTTER  and take your one shot. The person closest to the "X" wins .  Eric D. Lau Riverdale Mi.

Eric, you know your other club, Looking Glass River Longrifles is also having our June shoot the 7th. Guess that happens a lot when you belong to so many clubs in the area! The chunk shoot sounds like a lot more fun than our bp pistol shoot! Hmmmm...
