The Hunt Field was quite large this year. We had plenty of room to spread out without bumping in to each other and it was an interesting challenge to get the hunt field seeded within such a large area to keep everything fair as well as have a large assortment of targets. At a little after 9am we got started with everyone eager to warm up their skills and find everything as quickly as possible.
Hey where did everyone go? Everyone must be at the other end of the hunt field.
After our Warm up hunt it was time for the main event. We took about 20 minutes to seed the field and let the wind do its work. As hot as it was everyone was eager to start, but the wind had actually helped out to keep the playing field in good shape. It was almost like hutting in fresh untouched sand each time we started.
Our Spring Hunt was held a bit later this year but technically it was still held during the spring. Albeit it wasn't very spring weather. More like late summer, Hot - towards 90 degrees with a constant light wind with some stronger gust thrown in occasionally kicking up the sand. We had about 16 members present with 12 people participating in the actual hunt. The beach was in good shape having just been cleaned. There was plenty of coffee and donuts to go around while we waited for everyone to show up and set up the hunt field.
