Perfect weather and a great group. Anyone who missed this event missed out big time! We had a a visiting instructor from the "home range" - Ramseur, NC. Polonius is as good as they come. We also had two "sheila" instructors that are soo good with kinds and women. Wish we could get more like Insanemom and Emkay! All told, we had six solid instructors on the line, offering a lot of one on one instruction. Only 10 rifles on a 20 rifle line with outdoor AC.  :wb:

Brad revealed himself as a Rifleman with Chris right on his heals. Several others are edging closer - dry fire at home and come back out in April or before at Hernando or Manatee. Elaine showed amazing improvement and it was great to watch. You got grit ma'am and I'm prouder 'n a game rooster to have rid with ya! Spencer hung in all weekend and showed lots of improvement as well as great mechanical aptitude. I never had to show him anything twice - way to go young man!

Todd and Matt worked hard - I see them both patching soon.  :--- :---

Jim and Roger walked on for Sunday. Roger said he was getting exactly what he had hoped for - solid instruction. Many thanks sir - that's all the pay we ever need.

To all who attended - God Bless each of you and keep you. Please stay sharp by dry firing with a safe rifle and I hope to see each of you again soon.

In Liberty,
PHenry

Thanks for the photos, Emkay! That's going to be my new FB pic.
"We have always looked upon men as a set of beings naturally free - that a people can never be divested of those invaluable rights and liberties which are necessary to the happiness of individuals, to the well-beings of communities or to a well regulated state, but by their own negligence, imprudence, timidity or rashness. They are seldom lost, but when foolishly forfeited or tamely resigned." ~Jonas Clarke

Hi all, I am hooked! We are planning to come back in April. I know I have lots of work to do but I should plan on working hard toward getting a patch! And, I am ready now with elbow pads:) thanks again to all of the outstanding volunteer instructors!

Todd here,

Matt and I will be back. With a new front sight.
You guys were correct , I contacted tech sights, explained the situation and admitted it most mostly my fault.
They sent me a new front sight at no charge the next day. Great company.

Thanks for all the patience and great instruction.

See you at the next appleseed.


Todd



Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
