Smallbore and air rifle match vs. Rose-Hulman @ RHIT
Pistol match vs. Ohio State @ Purdue

All members of the Rifle and Pistol Club are hereby invited to participate in our annual pistol match against Ohio State University on Saturday, February 3rd, here at the Purdue Armory. Ohio State fields one of the top pistol teams in the U.S., and shooting with them will be a tremendous learning experience. Here are the details:

*Events will include Free Pistol, Standard Pistol, Sport Pistol (tentative) and Air Pistol. You may shoot any or all of the events.

*There is no cost to shoot, though you should bring money for lunch. Ammo, equipment, and snacks will be provided.

*Darren will be able to provide details on each course of fire and the targets to be used. No previous competition experience is necessary, but familiarity with basic pistol shooting is expected. Shooters of all levels and abilities are encouraged to participate. Competition will make you a better shooter.

*You must have all of your paperwork completed (including the blue competition eligibility form) and spring semester membership dues paid before competing. See Tom at practice to confirm these if you're in doubt.

If you're interested in competing, please contact Darren ASAP and let him know.

ALSO, there are still two Rifle Team competition opportunities left in the '06-'07 season: January postals, and the WIRC Finals competition at OSU in February. Competition dues are $15, and your blue competition eligibility form must be turned in. Talk to John at practice if you're interested in these events.

Competition shooters: our November postal targets need to be postmarked by November 30th, so you've only got 4 practices left to shoot them: Monday 11/20, Monday 11/27, Wednesday 11/29, and Thursday 11/30. Please make plans to get these done!

The results from the Boilermaker Invitational have been posted here.

Our sincere thanks to all the individuals who went out of their way to make the match run smoothly and successfully, or who brought necessary supplies and equipment. Your help was invaluable, and we appreciate it very much.

Tommorow, Saturday October 13, will be the Boilermaker Invitational match pretty much all day in the armory. This is our big event for the fall, with universities from all over the midwest in attendance, so anybody who's interested in seeing a college rifle match is more than welcome to stop by the armory. Please enter and exit the armory through the front doors after competition has begun. There will be 2 full-course smallbore relays (12 targets each) and 2 full-course air rifle relays (6 targets each), one of each being in the morning and afternoon. Purdue will be shooting in the afternoon.

Members interested in participating or just hanging out can show up starting at 6:30 in the morning for setup, or any time thereafter.
