Default New Castle "Rookie" Report

I am neither rookie nor old hand, but my first contest at New Castle
(a challenging site for those who haven't experienced it first hand)
had me in rookie mode all over again. This is an article I wrote up
for my club.

Should be required reading for anyone who is even thinking of getting
into competitions. Nice work!

Nicely written - brings back fond memories of my first, last, and only
contest there in 1983 - including the first "big ridge day". Since
then they have become commonplace, if not annual, events at New Castle.
