Thanks everyone for a great match on what turned out to be a great day (now yesterday – see ‘help wanted’). Almost 70 degrees and miraculously less soft, wet and muddy than was expected. A big and bold THANK YOU to all for making 2018 such a great year here at H2O. The biggest-est, boldest thanks of all to “Baby T” for joining the H2O Family this year and making Andy and Shari’s 2018 grand. Much on the to-do list. […]

A little bit colder than predicted, but that’s alright, 95 participants and a lot of spectators warmed our hearts. Thank you everyone for coming out – and we missed you to so many of our regulars. Thanks again, also, for all of the purchases of Girl Scout cookies from our local troop and favorite Cookie Monster “Em” and the donations to Operation Cookie Drop. We have much to-do in this one, so here we go! [ Results/Scores for the impatient: […]

As always a giant thank you to everyone who came out to shoot the Mega-BUG match with us. The weather was absolutely beautiful. Congrats again to our Range Daughters on their marriages: Holly & Brett (9/23) and Bre & Devin (10/7). A hard reminder occurred at the match. No “physical injury” – but “hurt” none-the-less. EVERYONE: when you are finished shooting the clock has stopped. You MUST wait for the [R]SO to issue each “unload and show clear” command. WAIT. No ‘racing’ to the […]

What an amazing day at the range! Thank you for spending it with us. Sorry for the ‘late’ (next day) post: web-dude had to get to the ’48th Annual Coharie Pow-Wow’. Speaking of range-daughters: time flies, they ‘grow up’, too soon they’re getting married. Congrats to The Real Range Daughter, Holly -and- one of our first Range-Daughters Breonna: both are getting married in October. Special thanks to Sean S. and Dustin T. for getting some match videos out in the […]

Here’s a few: – Stage 3 showed a lot of us today that we need to put in some work and practice with one handed shooting! – The next match here at H2O will be Saturday, July […]
