It was hot one this past weekend and can almost understand why we had only 7 shooters on the line.  With 3 new shooters it was a nice mix of familiar faces and new friends in the making. 

I wish I could report better results, but despite everyone's efforts both on and behind the firing line, we had no qualifying QDAQTs all weekend (but several very close ones) and only 1 cleaned Redcoat :-(  I will say there was some very significant improvements over the weekend, especially with our new shooters.  Two words: "Dry Practice".  It works! 

Pics to follow, but here are some links for shooting jackets for those who inquired:

James with our only cleaned Redcoat of the weekend. 
He's the guy with an almost shaved head... no, the other guy without the red beard. 
Congrats James!
