Manheim was fantastic this weekend, it was defiantly a great weekend to have a Clinic. The weather was cool and breazy and the sun was shining. We had six students this weekend, and many more audience members at any given time, I would say around 15.  Five of them even came all the way from Germany.
All students but three were returning Riflemen, and everyone said they had a fantastic time. We ended up with a new Orange hat, Steve, who is chomping at the bit to jump right in.

We ended the weekend with One new Rifleman, Congradulations Larry scoring a 235, and two new entries into the coveted 1st PA. Rifles.

Please excuse the lack of pictures, Mal was photographer this weekend, and as soon as he posts them you will see all the fun everyone had.

Lord make me fast and accurate. Let my aim be true, and my hands faster than those who would seek to destroy me.  Grant me victory over my foes, and those  that wish to do harm to me and mine. Let not my last thought be if I only had my Gun; and loard if today is truly the day that you take me home, let me die in a pile of empty brass.

This was my first AS and I did have a blast.
The instructors Alex ,Gary and Mal had their act together and knew what they were about.
Wish I could have made the second day because I still have some AS goals that I would like to meet.
I want to score with a bolt gun and with Iron sights.

At the moment I am a little reluctant to spend the money on the iron sights that I am afraid I will never use again.
Once I feel I truly have the skills I would be trying to teach I may look into the rewards that instructing offers.

Thanks again Roverace, SSG Platz and MAL!
