ORPA/Friends of Camp Perry Pop-up Match

The Pistol Pop-up Target Match at Camp Perry that was co-sponsored by the Ohio Rifle and Pistol Association and the Friends of Camp Perry was a big success. We had 171 shooters, and, because many shooters shot more than once, we had 40 full relays of 10 each. I'm sure the Friends of Camp Perry will have photographs on their site in a few days, but, meanwhile, here are a few that I took.

The first picture shows the little pop-targets prior to the start of the relay. They do not stay up like this during the actual shooting. Various ones pop-up for a few seconds until you either hit them or they go back down. The next two pictures show shooters on the line. The final shot shows the mud that was omnipresent.
