Awesome weekend in the Buckeye State !

Even ligthning and rain couldn't stop marksmanship and Heritage from being taught. A small group of detrmined Americans came to test themslevs and expand thir knowledge. One even came expecting to watch and not shoot...now that just doesn't happen at an appleseed !

Bailey.wow you are an impressive young man. I know a 209 hurts but the score will be yours at the next event !

Lucas ..your improvement was amazing.keep it up and huzzah for taking the rifle instead of watching !

Don....one day improvement off the charts...come back

Barbie.. I knew that scope was the prob. Glad to have you shoot Rifleman repeatedly AND take the Orange Hat ! huzzah and I'll see you on the trail I hope.

Evan well..the pic says it all doesn't it !My thanks to the CCSC and to Andre and Slim !

Well, I think we covered all the different weather conditions this weekend, minus snow.  From sunny and hot, to cloudy, to lightning and rain, to sunny, to torrential downpour, to... well, you get it!  Everyone carried on through it all.   

PB, well... that guy knows what he's talkin' about    My gun didn't see the light of day Sunday, and I used a scoped ruger from Andre and what happened?  Bam!  Rifleman score!     I think clearing the last stage w/100 pts was the highlight of that whole bit 

Another great weekend of history and marksmanship.  A big thank you to PB, Andre, & Slim.  Very happy to (finally) take on an orange hat!     And also, the "baptism by fire" helped me be nice and prepared for working the Wilmington event yesterday & today. 

As for the other shooters, hope to see ya guys out on the trail soon!

Congratulations to all the shooters for bringing teachable attitudes!  It was great to see each of you progress.

I was especially honored to see my grandson Evan earn his patch.  However...

Evan well..the pic says it all doesn't it !

    (This is the first time, and probably the last, that I've used this one.)

Don - hope you bring that AR back soon - great improvement, so don't stop there

Barbie - perseverance is good    I could tell from the first redcoat that you've learned well - just took a little equip adjustment
and the patch was yours - HUZZAH       Also, thanks for putting on the new hat; you'll definitely be an asset to AS.

Really good to see the duo of Lucas and Bailey.  Great improvement for both of you, and Bailey (a true student of the rifle), you WILL have that patch soon 

Also, it was great to work in OH with pb &  -:)  - see you guys down the trail!
