Camp Perry Palma

In the individual palma, my score was 439/450! At 800 yards, I dropped 1 point. I wasn't very happy with my 900, I dropped 8 points. The wind was letting off to the left, and I accidentally was favoring to the left. When the wind let off, I would get a 9, instead of a 10 or X. If I was favoring to the right, then when the wind let off, I would probably get a 10 instead of a 9. My dad noticed that, and when I was done shooting, he told me what happened. At 1,000 yards, I didn't favor left. I had my group more centered that time. I only dropped 2 points in hard wind! I couldn't stop smiling, because I had beat a lot of people that were better than me, and they were still happy for me!

I am # 70, so I got 70th place in that match, out of 205 competitors. I was competing against all the adults. I am shooting Palma Rifle, so, look under Division B, U.S. Palma rifle. You can click on the link below for the Palma Match results =)
