Karstetter Memorial Match
« on: April 11, 2018, 09:54:05 PM »
This year was the 6th annual Karstetter match near Wilbur WA, my sons and I have shot in 5 of the matches. This year was the wettest of them all, but still a very fun and challenging shoot. The rancher whose place the match takes place on was even kind enough to provide a couple of tractors to pull vehicles. Just thought I'd share a few pics for those interested in PRS type shooting. On most of the stages you only use your primary rifle, but one stage included 15 pistol targets and an AR target shown below in the red circle at 325 yards, then you had to run a short distance to your primary rifle and finish on a target at 860 yards with some nasty winds. The match started in a nasty downpour and you simply had to lay down in the mud and water and enjoy the day. I'm looking forward to next year's match ..... but hoping it's in drier conditions. (BTW, I'm open to suggestions for affordable and effective rain gear - mine failed.)
Disappointments are inevitable, misery is optional.

Sounds like fun.  Best rain gear I've used is carrhart Storm defenders. Lay in the mud all day no prob
https://www.howlforwildlife.org/take_action  It takes 10 seconds and it’s free. To easy to make an excuse not to make your voice heard!!!!!!

That truck isn't going anywhere!

A buddy of mine was there said the conditions were pretty bad. He tried to blame his poor performance on the rain but really he's just a bad shot. :chuckle:
