    Ok Ladies and Gents, Its just over two weeks to the MVAC's 25th Birthday....Bowman 'Mega' Classic Shoot!

    If you haven't booked in the baby sitter or dog walker don't worry as Ali and Steve H. have (allegedly) volunteered to carry out these duties (although I don't think their nappy changing skills are that good!)

    make sure that you have your shorts and sun cream ready too, as a beautiful summers day has been booked in for June 4th and just to show how accommodating MEON are, we have even cancelled the wind

    The course setters will be out this weekend setting a very easy and delightfully pleasant course for you all to admire and thoroughly enjoy (yeh, right!)

    As an update, the pistol fun shoot this year will be a speed shoot, this will consist of 5 silhouette targets placed in a line at ---yards, you will have only 20 seconds to shoot all five, your score and time will be recorded and the winner will get their hands on a create of quality Bowman Ale.

    if you have a very accurate fast shooting pistol and want to have some fun, bring it along with you, don't worry if you haven't as MEON will also have a number of pistols available for you to use.

    And remember that all those taking part will get our special 25th anniversary badge.

    I'm hanging onto it for a bit so I've got an excuse if I shoot badly you can borrow it once I've finished with it if you like. I heard anschutz shooters go through excuses quicker than O rings....

    Cool

    4 Day's to go and counting - See you all there


    Make sure that you have your shorts and sun cream ready too, as a beautiful summers day has been booked in for June 4th and just to show how accommodating MEON are, we have even cancelled the wind

    And remember, while you are waiting for the trophies we have the pistol speed shoot, this will consist of 5 silhouette targets placed in a line at ---yards, you will have only 20 seconds to shoot all five, your score and time will be recorded and the winner will get their hands on a create of quality Bowman Ale.

    If you have a very accurate fast shooting pistol and want to have some fun, bring it along with you, don't worry if you haven't as MEON will also have a number of pistols available for you to use.

    And remember that all those taking part this year will get our special 25th anniversary badge.
