Match Directors Bulletin # 1

1. Welcome Back: New York State Long Range Championship. Three (3) 1000 yard matches on Sunday

2. Target Pullers are always a problem in getting enough pullers for everyone that are quality pullers. The pullers you provide better be up to snuff or out they go and in you go to pull your own targets.

3. If you have a Puller that will work for you, it is recommended that you ask for special squadding on your SR-1 Card or contact me no later than Wednesday before the match. I will not be responsible for coordinating your Target puller with other competitors. Extra pullers are always welcome but let me know before you bring them.

4. Awards will be in Cash. Please indicate on your SR-1 Card if you want Award Points, as I have to order them from the NRA so I can get the results out within ten (10) Days. Juniors will receive an Appropriate plaque or Trophy.

5. Five shooters make a class. Four or fewer will be combined with next higher class. Unclassified shooters will compete in the Master Class, High Masters will compete for Open Awards Only and will not be combined with Masters.
