Bayou Rifles in Houston is looking forward to hosting the 2015 Texas Smallbore Silhouette Championship, scheduled for May 9 and 10. The attached match bulletin has complete information.

As those of you who have shot at the BRI Addicks range in Houston know, the Omni hotel is right across Eldridge from the range. We have a group rate from the Omni for the match, and even our own web site to reserve rooms for the match (you will have to paste the address below into your browser window):

If you want to reserve by phone, call 1-800-THE-OMNI and ask for the 2015 Texas Smallbore Rifle Silhouette rate.

Hope to see you there.

To clear up some confusion about the dates of the match -

The match itself is Saturday and Sunday May 9 and 10. The range will be open the afternoon of Friday May 8 for practice.

We are looking forward to a good match. Houston appears to be drying out from the recent rains - stay posted for range conditions and confirmation of the location.

Lapua has generously contributed ammo and gear for door prizes, and those of you who have tasted Bill Motl's prizewinning cooking know the food will be good.

Looking forward to seeing you there.

Jim Fleshman

Great job and thank you to Jim and all of the rest of the Bayou Rifles group for all the work put into this event. The match was top notch as it always is in Houston. The range, food, match organization, etc. were all perfect. As usual, anytime we go to Texas the competition is outstanding and the conditions are challenging. We had a great time!

Dustin

It was a great match. Good turnout, great shooting and fantastic food.

Thanks for a great match Jim!

Thanks to everyone who attended, and to all who helped. Excellent food, target setters and we missed the high water.

Looking forward to next year in Austin.

Thanks again.

The match director finally got around to posting the results:

In Standard rifle the match winner was Bill Motl who won a shootoff with Dustin that took 3 best-of-5 rounds - quite a show.

Congratulations to all!
