On July 14th and 15th, Nanaimo Fish & Game hosted our annual IPSC BC double qualifier, two separate matches held on consecutive days. More than 100 shooters from all over the province (and one from Grand Cayman Islands!) braved the scorching heat to come out and shoot seven stages (mini matches) consisting a total of 212 rounds each day. When the smoke cleared and the computer finished crunching the numbers, the winners were announced.
Sundays course of fire was a variation of Saturdays. Same number of stages and rounds, different start positions. There were a few different shooters and a few less shooters. The heat was taking its toll.
On behalf of myself and the rest of the match committee (Kevin Wheatcroft, Jurgen Brandmeier and Rob Clarke), I would like to thank everyone who came out and shot the match, our helpers for set-up and tear-down and congratulate all of the division and class winners. We’re looking forward to doing this all over again next year. I would also like to thank Norm Wolf who came out and photographed the event for us.  CLICK HERE to see the winners.
