Palm Bay Florida DEC. 17/18

[bill o rites]

It was a great winter weekend in Florida! After a brisk 69 degree start, we slowly began to warm up under the firehose of marksmanship instruction.
Our guests were treated  to a heaping helping of Appleseed info. A special thank you to our out of town help The cable guy a.k.a. Todd, who pitched in to help a lame Shoot Boss. With a couple of youngsters and a few new shooters we were off and running from the morning redcoat right through lunch . Our afternoon passed almost as quickly with several shooters on the bubble at or near 190 by the 2nd AQT of the day.
      Sunday came and we were fortunate to have some more out of town talent in the form of Big Chris who drove down from ST Augustine . Lots of review and a sling clinic made groups begin to shrink! and by close of business on Sunday, we were passing out patches, four riflemen ,well 3 riflemen and 1 riflewoman, had shot multiple Rifleman scores! plenty of other shooters were close between 180 and 200 knocking on that Expert door. I am always honored to be in the presence of Appleseed students and instructors, fine Americans one and all !
