Target carriers are installed!

Tony Sattler and Leon Nesja

On Friday night, September 21, club members Tony Sattler, Dave Tokach, Dave Shaffer, Tom Thompson, Kohl Klein, Myriam and Gary Vennie, Leon Nesja, Bruce Johnson, and one other member (I can’t remember his name) completed installation of the target carrier system at the Johnson Family Marksmanship Center. There is some final wiring yet to be completed, however, the system if fully operational. With this new system, club members will now be able to hang new targets at the firing line and send them down range to the 50 foot target line, or (when fining wiring is completed) to preset stops at 21 feet and 10 meters – or any spot in between by simply stopping the target using the wireless control. We will no longer need to call cease fires on the line in order to hang new targets.

A very big thanks goes out to Tony Sattler who was the main volunteer on this effort. Tony also had a lot of help from Dave Shaffer and Dave Tokach. These guys spent a long time and a lot of hours working on the target system. Thanks again!
