Title: Howdy
Post by: Captain Grimes on August 18, 2010, 01:29:33 PM
Howdy: I'm a newbe to this site. Would like to say hi and give you all a little of my background. I'm a Nam Vet from the Northern part of Missouri. I've been a shooter since I was 12 yrs. old. Have been a competive shooter off and on since the early 1970's. Recently retired as a aircraft electrician. I live on my farm  here in Missouri. Currently shooting my Sharps 1874 and my Mod. 10 Savage. As I said I'm retired and living on SS so I don't have a lot of money. Other than that I'll help any way I can.

CG,

Welcome to Appleseed and thank you for your service to our country.

Where in the northern half of MO are you located?  NE or NW? 

If NW we have a shoot in Weatherby at the end of this month and Princeton next month.  If NE, we usually have a shoot up in Williamstown in the spring.

Hope you can make it to a shoot soon.  We would be honored to have you on the line.

Greg

Or, if you wish, you could drive an additional 40 miles from Williamstown and arrive at Montrose, IA.  Aug 21-22 or Oct. 2-3  ;).  Thanks for your service, see you on the trail.
