Title: Centerton, Arkansas Ladyseed Sept 22/23
Post by: Ratchett on September 26, 2012, 06:21:15 AM
Another fantastic Ladyseed occurred this past weekend!! Geez I bet y'all think I sound like a broken record, but I am tellin ya LADYSEEDS ROCK!!! 7 patriotic women on the line in Centerton overcame many obstacles and saw huge improvement in their marksmanship skills. From physical impairments such as displaced ribs and pneumonia to a mental fear of rifles, these ladies persevered through it all walked away with the knowledge of handling a rifle safely and improved shooting skills. Plus, they heard the 'real' history of April 19, 1775.

Libby and Kat always great to have you shooting on the line, congratulations on re-qualifying!!

Rebecca was so fun to watch you have those "Ah ha" moments and watch everything come together for you! Hope the ribs heal quickly so you can get back down in the dirt with that new rifle!!

Amy you accomplished so much this weekend!! You have much to be proud, especially over coming a fear of rifles. Your scores continued to improve and you were rocking that rifle!! (Email coming your way on suggestion about lighter weight stock for your 10/22.)

Madie and Melanie, I always love having a mother/daughter duo on the line. You guys were so much fun!!! Both were showing improvement and your scores kept rising. Madie way to kill all those nasty household chores and win the shooting contest!

Sarah we sure missed you Sunday!! but super glad you were able to join us on Saturday!!! You were doing well, especially using a rifle foreign to you!! Thank you for the 'new' kneeling position!! I will definitely keep that in my mental tool box for other folks who have back issues.

Kenneth--Thank you for sharing your range with AS and partnering with us to teach marksmanship and American heritage. Without range owners like you we could not do what we do!!

umdaddy and Steven--our beloved 'manslaves' for the weekend. Thank you so very much for supporting these fantastic women this weekend. Your 'cooking' was yum dillicious!! 

Detter Family-- THANK YOU so so much for all you do for AS. Your generosity and gracious hospitality makes Thank You so inadequate!! I so much enjoyed the fellowship with each of you. BTW, I miss Austin!

Mother Cobbler-- Thank you for working so diligently to see this Ladyseed to fruition! Your hard work and dedication did pay off and a successful shoot you had!! Thank you for all the behind the scenes work, you and umdaddy are an awesome team!!!

Smiler, what can I say... I cannot wait for the day that I get to come and work a line for you!! You are an amazing young lady and will make an excellent SB!

Prayerful blessings to all! Stay strong, we fight together for our posterity...

In His grip,

Thank you Ratchett for driving all this way with a sore tooth.  Thank you for making our weekend, hearing the history again and letting it sink in and be felt to the core, and helping with my forum questions.
I am hoping the photos I am going to send work.
