Three new Rifleman Michael, Oliver, and David (219×2) persevered and the group doubled their effect range. Two more orange hats joined the mission Great job stayed hydrated and alert!!!

Wow,.... Saturday was HOT!!

Despite the heat, the shooters persisted.  What a great group!  Saturday showed the greatest single day improvement I can remember.  Included in this amazing improvement were two new Rifleman!  The is a testament to the great attitude and open minds of the shooters.  You all should be proud of yourselves.  Saturday was no easy task.  Fred always says; "A Rifleman persists."  You all displayed the heart of a Rifleman!

We had a great group of instructors lead by our newly minted Green Hat, Reckless Rick.  Great job Reckless!

Here are a few shots of the event.

What an awesome event!  The instructors were top notch and really worked well with my 12 year old son to teach him rifle safety and how to shoot.   We will definitely attend future Project Appleseed events.  A special thank you to the instructors, you made this event special.

Hi Folks,

Thanks for a wonderful weekend! I've heard from Michael who had a great time this weekend, and from Lex who asked to share this picture of David (our new Rifleman 219×2) and our new orange hat.  Great job folks, and thanks to my team and the shooters for a safe and fun shoot.

A pair of prescription glasses in Mikes car today. He thinks one of the guys that rode with him when he went to the long distance shoot may have dropped them. If you rode with Mike in his black Tesla, and lost your prescription sunglasses, Please get in touch with me.

My second Appleseed. While I couldn't seem to break above the 196/197 area, I was inspired by watching David jump out of the 170's to score 219. And again just to show it wasn't a fluke! He really put it all together. http://appleseedinfo.org/smf/Smileys/newsmileys/bowdown.gif

I truly enjoyed the experience all around.  I will be back!

You'll break out past 200! By the time your hitting close to 200 your knocking on the door and a little bit of tightening up will happen almost magically and next thing you know your there.

This is my 2nd Appleseed and it was another great event.

A huge "Thank you" goes out to everyone who put this event on -- and didn't wilt under the brutal sun on Saturday.
