Once again our host and hostess Eric and Kitten opened their home and gave us the opportunity to gather with our fellow Americans up in beautiful Bayfield county Wisconsin for another fantastic Northland Appleseed.  :bow:

Not only were the surroundings picturesque but the marksmanship displayed on the line was awesome.  ^:)^

Congratulations to our new Riflemen/Woman Bobby 226, Cole 215 and Hana at 234 on our last AQT of the weekend.  :~

I am proud to note that Cole is our host Eric's 11 year old brother and that Hana our highest scoring Rifleman or Riflewoman for the weekend is younger than 17.  O0

Chris (Hana's Dad) scored a 207 on that last AQT Sunday and cleared the final Redcoat so there is another Mason Rifleman on the horizon as well.   :~

Chad and Issac also our host Eric's brothers requalified at 231 and 228 respectively.

I would dare say that Colonel Morgan could easily recruit an entire company of Morgan's Riflemen from the folks up in Mason.  O0

My personal thanks to my fellow instructors BugginOut, Privateer, weaslewoods, Doc (our host) and Ole Slew Foot for your contributions to the success of this event. Without you all this could have never been done.  :bow:

Congratulations to Ole Slew Foot for successfully completing his IIT1 PC on his maiden voyage wearing that new Orange Hat. Job well done CJ!  O0

This was my first event. Never even heard of an Appleseed shoot until a few weeks ago. I learned a lot of really great information thanks to some really great instructors. Will definitely be doing it again. Thanks for a great shoot!
Don't ever mistake my silence for ignorance, my calmness for acceptance, or my kindness for weakness.
