Gemmer Muzzle Loading Gun Club
"Keep Your Powder Dry"
Gemmer Activities that are in addition to the normally scheduled monthly matches. These are open to club members and guest of club members unless the event is specifically a Public Event. Our family picnic, board meetings, meat shoots and archery matches will appear here.
The first archery match was held on Saturday, April 13, 2024. Jim Feeney organized the match and Brad Dickinson, Joe Kelly and Ron Lawrence attended. The big news that they had to announce is that not a single arrow was lost during the shooting! The next Archery match is August 17, 2024 so mark you calendars now and plan on supporting the event. Traditional and compound bows are allowed. No crossbows allowed.
The Gemmer Club hosted a Boy Scout Troop during April and allowed them to shoot and learn about Muzzleloading. It was the first event of this sort in a few years and it was very successful. Glenn Baer took the lead in this event and many club member’s participated and donated powder and supplies so that the event was free to the Boy Scouts. Thank you to everyone that participated!
We had a great turnout for todays match with a total of 26 shooters, the largest turnout for our meat match is a long time. The match consisted of 12 rounds of shooting and we had a total of 11 winners, so the meat (or Schnucks gift cards) were spread around the shooters.
Here are the winners for each round:
