In 2007 during our monthly shoots the Baraga group shot postal
targets against a Canadian Club from Sudbury (the Sudbury
Voyageurs Muzzle Loading Rifle Club). The idea of the postal
was generated by the Canadians. The response from the group
shooting at the OSC was very positive, so we continued in 2008.
Beginning in 2009 a third group of black powder shooters from
Menominee, MI, has joined us in this International Match.
Unfortunately, for 2012 the Canadian club could not particpate,
but a club from Port Huron, MI, joined up.
But the good news is that for 2013 Canada is back and Dallas
TX and Anchorage AK have joined up.
The postal shoot works this way: Three targets are
designed. The OSC group shoots its target on the 1st Saturday
of the each month from January through June as part of the
club’s monthly shoots. As you recall, we shoot about 18 shots
at our shoots. Five of the eighteen shots are on paper and
count towards the postal. The other groups shoot their targets
at their desiginated time of each month for the same period.
The top five scores from each club are pitted against each
other to determine a winning team. Every shooter who
participated in the shoot is considered 'on the team'.
However, only the top five are counted. The reason for the top
five only counters is because the two clubs do not necessarily
have the same number of shooters each month.
This year the results are as follows, winners in Bold:
