Bad Light Conditions
Owing to the lateness of the season
and the large number of competitors,
the 5O0-yard range had to be shot
with extremely bad light conditions.
and therefore the scores made are
credit to the high men.
Some of the men were beginners,
having started the shooting game
this season. and although they could
not find the bullseye" as easily and
consistently as the more seasoned
marksmen, it was partly because OF
wind and light conditions, and their
scores were very creditable.
