You couldn't ask for better weather and a better group of students. There was a little frost Saturday when we set up but our host had hot coffee to warm us up. That's how it is in Northwest Wisconsin this time of year.
This event was sold out with eager patriots willing to take instruction and it shows! 5 new Rifleman and 2 requalifications with many others knocking on the door. It was only equipment issues that kept them from getting their rifleman patch.
Congratulations to River Fall's new rifleman

Hands down one of the best shoots I've instructed at yet! Everyone displayed a level of motivation and willingness to learn at a level higher than I have ever seen to date. Congrats to our new riflemen and requals. All other shooters showed great aptitude and look forward to seeing them again with a friend!

What an amazing weekend!  My granddaughter Kate and I happily snagged the last two spots on this sold out shoot and travelled 600 miles round trip to attend!  And we did it to learn from Martin and Jo, and their wonderful red and orange hatted instructors.  Great fellow shooters, great teaching, great history.  It seems to me every shooter improved including 12 year old Kate.  And the range is really a nice one.  Thanks Belinda!  I am looking forward to coming back next year.
