LRC 2017 FPR Series #2 BSRV Open

The first Annual Big Sky RV Open Rifle Golf Event is now in the books! I want to recognize first and foremost all the effort and financial resources put forth by the crew at Big Sky RV in Bozeman. Donavon and Kelsie Fredrickson really did a top notch job as the Title Sponsor and Hosts for this event. Kelsie personally made every one of the 40 lunches they provided on Sunday and Donavon did all the homework rounding up additional sponsors for the prize table while also donating $ for gift certs for low stage scores. As Facility Director I really hope LRC can continue to bring on more supporters like the Fredricksons! 
Check them out at http://www.bigskyrv.com 

This was the first event at LRC of its kind with respect to the golf style scoring system and indeed there were a few bugs to work out. I changed from the percentage system to a placement based system for calculating series points to help even out the large variances penalty scoring caused. We have already figured out how to weight the system to work much better for next years event so hope you’ll all be back!
Many thanks to all 33 shooters we had turn out for this LRC Series Match! With out you these events could not take place!! All the volunteer RO’s did excellent and we cant thank them enough for their time and assistance… Thank you all!
The weather ended up being decent considering the forcast, winds were 5-20 mph with Temps ranging from about 42’ to 60’ F with off and on clouds and blustery spits of rain.
