was this an invitational?

When was the match and what are the results?
 
This was an invitational with champions from the past at the Nationals, A line, Agg line, SOTY, Etc. It was a money match with added prizes from sponcers. Jerry is being humble about not posting results as I believe he won it.
 
Copied from another forum:

Just a quick note.
Jerry Graves won and with such great scores.His Davis smithed 40X and Eley Orange Box,really shooting 4 ARA Targets all scores in the 2300-2400 range,
Walnut Hill range,just perfect conditions,with just a whif of wind.
The Megis County Corn was a great hit....and very good.

Way to go Jerry !!!!!! You really had that rifle humming :) Sounds like it was a great match........Slim
 
Any west coast shooters invited?

Did anyone from the west coast qualify to shoot in this match? Seems there are some champions out there? Is ARA getting elitist?
 
When Jerry was setting it up, I think he asked for Joe's contact info so I assume he did.
 
Nice work Graves...!

No Kirk Gaston....?????????????? Would have been neat to see him in the mix. Joe as well.

Fred, Jerry did ask to contact him. I didn't and should have out of respect either way and for that I apologize to Jerry. Congrats Jerry with the win and happy to see you had a good turnout and everyone enjoyed themselves.


Take Care,
Joe
 
Fellows Im sorry if anyone has hurt feelings from not being invited.I ask for everyones info early on.Kirk was invited and had a spot open for him he couldnt get a gun shooting good enough to show maybe next year.We had great conditions with just a steady breeze for the first 2 targets and it was scary calm and cool for the last target.Hoke is writing a artical for P.S. magazine.Again Im sorry if anyone wanted to come after the fact but next year reply when asked for info.I came in 1st.2nd was Mike Sherril 3rd Bob Barnhart 4thRay Hess
