What a weekend!  We had a fine group of instructors and a very determined shooter who demonstrated that persistence does pay off.  The wind on Saturday made things a bit challenging but the sunny weather on Sunday more than made up for it.

Congratulations to Click on scoring rifleman and also for accepting the challenge to help bail.  He will be a valuable addition to our instructor corps.

A huge thank you to all the instructors who remained committed to the event in spite of the low registration.  Also many thanks to the folks at Centerline of Calhoun County for the hot lunches they cooked up for us.  Very welcome in such cold weather.

Well done all!

It was a fantastic weekend with the best people on earth.  I make new friends every time--can't wait 'til the next time.  Congratulations, Click, and thank you to the rest of the Bellevue instructor corps for spending the weekend sharing heritage, history, and marksmanship.

Click, outstanding work!!  I knew you'd get it sooner rather than later.  I'm just jealous that I wasn't there to share in the moment.  Thanks for accepting the challenge of waking up America.  See you on the line at the next event in March.  Don't forget to wear green!!   ;D

It appears I need some help.... Is this the appropriate place to comment on the March shoot??  Bless You, Thank You to ALL the instructors!! Your advice, tips, and input was vital to me shooting Rifleman.
