Greetings all,
Another shoot has been logged in the heritage books. Small (5 shooters and 2 instructors) but fruitful, this shoot was a good one. We have a new orange hat (congrats to Cord) and we had one shooter score rifleman (congrats Deanna). The morning red coat target informed us that one shooter was effective to 100 yards and that was all. By the last AQT of the day, all shooters were scoring at least high marksman. Quite a change.

Weather was nice, we were treated to a bit of sun which turned a little cool breezy day into a down right pleasant mid 40 degree day.

The shooters were uniformly eager for instruction and expressed much gratitude at the end of the day.

So thanks to all the shooters and to Sennott who came out as usual to help.

5 people on the road to Rifleman and one new instructor is a pretty good day in my mind.

Thanks to Joez for running monthly event in Milwaukee. O0

It was my best of shooting ever at 247 (I hatted a few years ago, but things on the community side never advanced) but my greatest pride was having my wife score Rifleman!  Still more work to do on consistency for her, but she enjoys the appleseeds so there will be more opportunities for improvement.

Cord,

247 is almost a perfect score.  Now you are ready for the not so perfect.  That is teaching and spreading what you have learned to other people.  Learn today, teach tomorrow.

This is our mantra.
