Another good group in the IPSC TC last weekend. Thanks to Darcy G for taking the photo. There were 6 shooters, all guys this time. The usual eclectic mix of pistols, all in 9mm Luger. Guns were 1 Shadow, 4 Shadow2s and 1 Beretta 92 used by the only left hander. Only one currently reloads. [...]
The first shoot of the year was a huge success, in spite, or perhaps because of, the “somewhat inclement weather”. The 9 shooters out had a great time, with the skill level allowing for a larger number of movement drills to be practiced. The dry fire early AM portion was well received, and will form a component [...]
Had 5 people out. Shoot ended before rain. Next shoot February 18th.
LOCAL RIVERS Fraser River: (non-tidal) High, Dirty and Dangerous!! Good for cut throats and white fish. Vedder/Chilliwack: Blown out!! Chehalis: High water advisory!! Harrison: Best bet (water is high -find the slots for steelhead) trout and cut throats all over - use real baits in brackish water or flies. Cultus Lake: lots of cut throat [...]

The PPC sub club will hold their first monthly match of 2018 on January 7, and it looks like it will warm up a little with a threat of rain. 2018 will be our 36th consecutive year holding monthly matches at the club and we look to another successful year of training and competition. [...]
December was a busy month for Sagittarius Archers. Our Wednesday night drop in have been extremely busy. We are still seeing a large amount of new comers. A big thanks to Dave and his crew for teaching the first timers each and every week. On the 10th we hosted our BC Children’s Hospital Christmas [...]
Local Rivers Fraser River - (non-tidal): conditions are low and clear! The Sturgeon are aggressive as salmonid carcass’s are few: use traditional baits like roe balls; salmon pieces; pike minnow are all good choices. Tidal portion of the Fraser: nothing much going on below Mission. Vedder/Chilliwack: Low and clear again -lots of nice water! This years derby was [...]
