COMPUTER SYSTEM AVAILABLE FOR RECORDING MEMBER'S CLAYS ROUNDS - LOG BOOKS REMOVED DEC. 31 A computer Kiosk is now installed in the clays pavilion office that will be used to record clays rounds shot by members and their immediate family. The logbooks currently in use will be removed December 31. The envelope payment system for guest clays rounds has not changed in any way. The Kiosk is user friendly and "first timer" instructions are posted above the Kiosk. The Password is the same four (4) number string that is used to open the skeet house and logbook desk padlocks. If you have trouble there is a sheet posted by the Kiosk you can use to log your rounds. Please only use this sheet if you have problems and cannot log your rounds electronically. This development includes the additional benefit of Wi-Fi now being available in the vicinity of the clays pavilion. There are two (2) levels of service that identify on computers and smart phones as "BGC 2.4" and/or "BGC 5." The Wi-Fi Password for both levels is BUCC0512 (case sensitive).

THE NEWSLETTER IS NOT TO BE USED AS A SOURCE FOR LEARNING THAT YOUR SKEET ACCOUNT IS OVERDRAWN.

3 Trap Match Well we had a great day for a change, very little wind and lots of sun. We had some great score s this week with high s 47. We had a three way tie in A class a two tie in B class followed with a two way tie in C class. Great shooting guys. Again we had a good turn out with 4 squads with 18 shooters. We had some good scores to day with a great bunch of guys. Top score for the day went to Pat Childers, David Barron and Jeff Cole with a 47 to take A Class. Wayne Averilla tied with Scott King for B class and in C class Dave Ernst tied Clark Marvin. My many thanks to Don Mincher, and many others, for their help in making this a good day on the trap field. Without their help it would have been a long day.

4 .22 Benchrest Match From December 24: CUSTOM GUNS #1 #2 #3 #4 TOTAL Jon Mix Sam Wells Jeff Fountain Renae Fountain #1 #-2 #3 #4 AGG Score X Score X Score X Score X PRODUCTION GUNS Michael Pridgen Will Windham David Smith Cowboy Match One sunny day in February, 2017, Dick Holliday approached the White House from across Pennsylvania Avenue, where he'd been sitting on a park bench. He spoke to the Marine standing guard and said, I would like to go in and meet with President Hillary Clinton. The Marine replied, Sir, Mrs. Clinton did not win the election, is not President and doesn't reside here. The old man said, Okay, and walked away. The following day, Dick Holliday approached the White House and said to the same Marine, I would like to go in and meet with President Hillary Clinton. The Marine again told the man, Sir, as I said yesterday, Mrs. Clinton did not win the election, is not President and doesn't reside here. Dick thanked him and again walked away. The third day, the Dick approached the White House and spoke to the very same Marine, saying I would like to go in and meet with President Hillary Clinton. The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at Dick and said, Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak to President Hillary Clinton. I've told you already several times that Mrs. Clinton did not win the election, is not President and doesn't reside here. Don't you understand? Then Dick answered, Oh, I understand you fine. I just love hearing your answer! The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said, See you tomorrow, Sir." Please be with the Buccaneer Range regulators on the second Saturday for another shoot-em-up... Till then don't forget to "Take a kid shooting" Respectfully submitted... Ned Bluntline
