There were also two IBS records broken (still to be officially verified) and a whole slew of Iowa club records broken - all by father and son Lee and Stephen Fischer:

Lee set a new IBS HG 6 match group agg record of 6.1022" (was 6.1652"), then Stephen lowered that to 6.0568" beating his dad in the process!

Lee then set a new IBS HG 10 match group agg record of 7.3258" (was 7.499").

Lee and Stephen also broke every one of Iowa's club records for 6 match and 10 match aggs in both group and score this year also. Way to go, Fischers!!!!
 
I got the pleasure, or should I say DISpleasure (just kidding), of sitting between the dynamic duo in the last HG shootoff of the day. Lee to my left, and Stephen to my right......now, I ax ya....how N L is a guy supose to concentrate surrounded with that kind of talent.


I will have to say that Stephen has the smoothest technique I have seen to date. Fast, but not hurried....Every shot and follow through is the same....every time. EVERY TIME!!!! I wonder where he got that from????;)

Way to go guys!!!
:D:):D

Boss:
RE your "dirty little..."
Which "Rich" are you talking about?
Why do you provide this info about the bullets?
 
Nationals results?

:confused: Cannot locate Sept. 27 Nationals results on the aforementioned website. (maybe its just me-maybe someone could give me another clue!)
 
Congratulations

Congratulations Stephen and Lee.

Those records are something to be very proud of. They reflect consistently superior shooting; in all kinds of conditions.

My hat is off.
