Hi there Oranco members,
Boy who order another round of heat, let’s hope we are seeing the last of it soon.
Well here is my update with the new Broadhead range. We have finished our 1st phase of the range and hope to start the final phase as soon as we work out all the details. This has been a bit of hard work with a very small crew of us doing the best we could do to this point. I would like to thank Bill Waltz, Pete Whitworth, Mark Houston, and Brad Belvedere Mike O for their hard work. Now for the rules as you plan to use the new range. You will see 6-signs placed on the range they read:
Broadhead pit Rules Members only Targets inside pit Only Shoot from raised lane only anyone breaking these rules will be expelled from club.
I hope that no one thinks that we are making this to harsh but you all most understand that we can’t have any Oops shots or bad judgment when shooting the new range. So please keep your arrows straight and stay in the shooting lane.
Thank you.
Now for some updates,
We just finished our State 900 shoot if you were able to shoot it thank you for supporting our event. Thank you to Dave Beacon and his crew for putting this on and working through the heat. We are very pleased with the new targets and will be ordering 8-more of them to complete our targets.
Now as I’m sitting here writing my newsletter I must say I’m a bit tired from a very long weekend.
A very big thank you to our members for stepping up and working so hard to get this event done under a very hot weekend our new cook shack foremen. Melinda is been a long time member and goes back a long way as a child her parents where very active members of Oranco when our club was in Orange county. Malinda was part of Steve’s team and took over when Steve became our new membership chair. I must say Melinda was a super star this past weekend. As for the pig roast dinner, thank you to Steve and Adolfo for working so hard getting that pig prepped and ready for a nice dinner. That was a lot of work for those guys.
The clout was a bit small I’m not sure if it had something to do with how hot it was this past weekend. Talking to some of our club members they past due to the heat. It was fun to watch those that took part in the clouts Thank you Jim, Brad, Steve and Pete putting this together well done. I will say it was nice to see so many shooters camping out at our range.
A few last notes:
I was able to get our road sprinklers fix as well as some of you know that system was put in for dust control. It is a remote system and that my company put in years ago. I have been told that some our members have been opening the control boxes please do not open or try to work these controls valves as they are very expense to repair or replace.
Thank you
Next event will be the unmarked State 3-D championship. So please put this on your calendars 11-17-24 this is a one day event we will be needing lots of help so please get signed up.
As always thank you for taking the time to read this newsletter. And be sure to share your hunting stories with us. It was nice to see Brett Scott from willow Creek Archery takes a nice pig.
Also CONGRATS to Jim Teel for reaching his goal of 5,000 lbs of Carp this season bow fishing. Hell of a job big Jim.
