U.S.A. Palma Team Practices at Camp Perry

The Fullbore (Palma) World Championships will be held at Camp Perry, Ohio this summer. The American squad arrived a bit early — for a few days of team practice. Our friend Anette Wachter (aka 30 Cal Gal) is in Ohio with Team USA and she posted some photos on Facebook. Skies were gray, but that didn’t deter the American shooters who practiced their shooting under the watchful eyes of top wind coaches.

Take a look at the photo above. How many ace American shooters can you spot? Here’s one hint — pulling the black wheeled case is John Whidden, past U.S. Long-Range National Champion.

At right is the first bit of Team USA swag. Anette says there is more to come — team shirts and jackets were sized and ordered for all the U.S.A. shooters and coaches.

Below are four very talented ladies — who just happen to be some of America’s best long-range sling shooters. Left to right are: Anette Wachter, Michelle Gallagher, Trudie Fay, and Nancy Tompkins. Anette says: “We will be shooting together at Nationals in August.” Noting the amount of talent in this female foursome, Peter LeBerge comments: “The rest of us will compete for second place.”
