Shooting after sunset

Recommended Posts

I got to our weekly Tuesday match late and had to shoot 3 stages after the sun went down. Even though there are stadium lights, I couldn't hit the side of a barn. I usually make to top 40 out of the 120 plus shooters but this time I got in the hundreds.

I guess my eyes are getting too old to see the sights. This could be my excuse start shooting open or for shooting so badly.

If you have a fiber optic front sight shooting under the lights isn't as big a deal. Unless of course you have night vision problems. I am a big fan of all black sights but I shoot under the lights quite a bit and they just don't cut it in that environment.

We got a similar prob here - our range faces a nborth-westerly direction. So after 2-3 in the afternoon you got the sun in your face and the targets are all shaded...not the best shooting conditions...

To top it off, our backstop is a mountain, so once the sun drops behind that - bye-bye fun....You can see the score drops between 2-4 and then again from 4-6....

It sucks....
