I had a small medical procedure which did not go exactly to plan and I had to be hospitalised for 3 days with strong medical advice not to travel.
Thank you to all those who participated and survived Sunday with its 10deg air temp,with a 2deg wind chill and wind gusting between 35 and 50 km/h. It would appear that all had a challenging time.
Details on the Ultra Long-Range challenge at Coonabarabran will be published shortly.
Once again - Many Thanks Chris.
Cheers

Cliff,
Sorry you were unable to attend,as you know the show rolled on,thanks to the workers and competitors who all did their bit,the big breakfast was well attended and assisted our stamina for the rest of Sunday.I know that I am connected to NSW Match Rifle,but it would be remiss of me to not mention the biscuits,cake and slices that were there for morning and afternoon teas,all supplied by not only by local members,but also by visiting shooters.
As an old Match Rifle shooter,in more ways than one,it was great to see more shooters giving Match Rifle a go,but as well F Open who have always been there were very strong and FTR ,the newer kid on the block was very well supported,even having some from the Australian Team to the recent World Championships.Hope to see you at the South Australian Championships in August.
