Update for the Desert International Silhouette Forecast Anthem, Arizona, January 30-31

Sorry folks, both days lows low to mid 50's highs in the low to mid 70's light breezes both days 3-6 mph mostly NNE. Had my shorts on here yesterday.

Should see some two day aggregates in the mid 60's to low 70's. Chip got 9 chickens at Tucson this month. :wink:

Sunscreen, shorts, sandals and sun glasses with wide brimmed hats. Wish you were here. :D

Hope we don't break into the 80's the following week, but, you never know. 8)

Are any guys in the area on Monday? Was thinking of trying to shoot a little tomorrow but Ben Svety is closed. I have to be at the Lapua facility at 13:30 but would jump on the chance to shoot long somewhere.

Johnny,
If you see DD ask him if it's gonna be televised!!
Maybe a camera behind Kenny And Bryan and one behind Dave and John.

For those of us that are stuck up here in the frozen tundra.

Be way better than watching golf.

I was going to try to shoot some video at this match but after the last two days of shooting on the main range at Ben Avery, I don’t think I’m going to. You have to bear down and concentrate on what you’re doing here. The wind shifts around a lot.

It’s a spotters game, at Ben Avery.

Some are just much better at it than others. No mater what, it is educational.

I’d be super interested in even just spotting for a shooter too.
