Title: AAR: Knob Creek Sept 11 - 12, 2010
Post by: kentuckyjam on September 13, 2010, 08:15:50 PM
What a beautiful weekend.  It threatened a down pour all day Saturday, but the sun won out.  We had a long line on Saturday and several of those folks come out on Sunday.  Thanks to all the instructors, we had a nice large crew that made the weekend fun and packed full of learning! 

Congratulations to the Riflemen!!  Unbridled Liberty, DoubleShock, and Jayme (no screen name yet).  The rest of the pics will follow...

Biogranny doing the same got the brass and clip again.



Was a great weekend with friends old and new. Lots of great attitudes willing to learn and taking a little different perspective about where we come from home with them.

This was my first Appleseed shoot, it was GREAT!!!
I learned a ton and am a better shot for it.  Unfortunately one of the things that I learned is that my rifle walks left as it heats up (a little up and down, but mainly left).  Thanks to Mudcat I was able to finish the second day with a 22LR and my groups tightened up, just not enough to get the patch.
I'm looking forward to expanding Appleseed in my area.

This is Josh H by the way

I know everyone there was capable of making rifleman, some of the shooting by the end of the first day really suprised me. It was just a matter of getting through an AQT without any equiptment problems or mistakes.

This was my first time at an Appleseed as an IIT and I had a good time.

Thanks to everyone for coming out.
