Desperado Declares January 2009, our first monthly shoot of the new year. was great. The weather was warm with a slight breeze. A few long time friends that we haven't seen for a while came out to play. it was good to see them again. Our cook shack and scoring crews signed up for another year. (Thank goodness for that).

As I've said before, our shoots at Panorama are about the shooters. If there's anything you would like to see us change, let us know, if we can, we will. We’re going to modify our new long gun stands in an effort to make them more side x side friendly. I hope to get that done before our next match.  We set up a world speed record stage on range three and anyone who wanted to try for a record could do so. Most of the shooters went for it. Some of us bettered our times from last year and some of us didn't. I was a didn't.    A big thank you to El Roberto for providing his camera equipment. Lead D'Spencer will post the results on his web site at........... http://www.spencerhoglund.com/worldrecords.html The top five shooters were: 5th) Cold Iron Charly 4th) Swifty Swede 3rd) Latin Gun 2nd) Tex Fiddler 1st) Lead D'Spencer Hope to see ya all next time.
