Outdoor Range: Howie Bearse Chairman
November Slug Shoot: Sunday afternoon November 4th, 2007 at the club outdoor range was the place and time for our clubs now Fourth Annual Shotgun Slug Shoot! Despite the 89 MPH wind gusts and 4 inches rain dropped by Tropical Storm/Hurricane Noel that battered Cape Cod a day earlier, a determined group of sixteen participants lined up to try their hand at winning a few trophies as well as bragging rights for the tittle of top gun. A beautiful November fall day was at hand which allowed our shooters, for a modest fee of $5 dollars to take 3 shots at a 25 yard target, and three shots at a 50 yard target. This total became their overall score. To retry and attempt to better one’s score was an additional $3 dollars for another round of two targets. Of the sixteen original shooters, nine tried their hand at additional attempts to win the prizes for the day.
The results are as follows: Jack Martin won first place in the Iron Sights Group. Ryan Wade of Eastham, a member of the Nauset Club won second place. In the Scoped or Aim Point, club member Chet Wright took first place. Greg Wade of Eastham, also a member of the Nauset Club and Ryan’s Dad, won second place. Dan Welch again won the infamous Turkey Bird Award for achieving a low score. Dan had competition this year as this title had a few contenders. However both Peter Donovan and Adam Preston escaped this title by increasing their benchmark in their subsequent retries. Despite having an extremely successful morning on the club trap range, Dan unfortunately shot worse during the afternoon. Congratulations to all of our trophy winners and shooters. Good luck to all of you in the upcoming Massachusetts shotgun dear season!
