Bob Nicewanner, Jack Odor, Jim Luke, top three spots in the Grand
Agg. During the offhand scope match conditions were rough with wind
gusts to a little over 20 mph. 

Don Hanks made a remarkable comeback to win the scope bench event. His first shot was a 23 leading to a first target score of 240.
Then he followed up with back to back 250's, a 249, and a 247.

Thanks for the report on Donn's win!!
The saying in Arizona is that no one beats Hanks off the bench!!!
To add to the Donn Hanks tribute, I was again lucky enough to shoot the Black Powder Target Rifle Nationals with Donn this year and he coached me to the best scores I have ever shot in both the Creedmoor and the Mid-Range matches.
Even at eighty years old it was all I could do to keep up with him for the eight days of competition.
I only wish I could have done as good a job of spotting for him that he did for me.
Thanks Donn and congratulations!!!

Wind in Raton? That's hard to believe.

Congratulations to all the winners.

Good shooting.
