What is a Postal Match?


Before the internet, if friendly target shooters wanted to compete against one another they could either meet together and exchange targets, or they would participate in a Postal Match. Typically these contests were a standard course of fire that the participants shot, then mailed to the contest organizer for tally. Since the internet can provide us with nearly instant feedback, and we can trade many different targets, it seems to be an ideal format for the "Modern Postal Match".

So after a little hiatus, the Online Postal Match is now back in business. Since it really is the "off" season, I suspect most are a little rusty. Therefore, we will start off relatively easy - straightforward bullseye target. Look to the bottom of the page to
review the general match guidelines.
