RustyRed and I drove down to the range at Menomonie for this weekend's sold out event and it was great to spend the weekend with old friends again. Everything went smooth as silk thanks to some great instructors.
Congratulations to Menomonie's newest Rifleman Paul and to Maria, Charlie, and Austin for requalifying.
All the students showed improvement. Keep practicing!
Special thanks to the Menomonie Rifle and Pistol Club for partnering again this year.

Will here,
Charlie, Ellie and I had a great weekend. Ellie was all smiles. She was well satisfied with her improvement over he course of the weekend. She's almost there scoring a 201.
I came home Monday night and noticed that Charlie hung up the redcoat he cleared, as well as the AQT that he scored 236. He hung it up right in the reloading bench window. He's pretty proud that he tied my score on the AQT that day. He's not gonna let me forget that. I've really got to practice more or next time he will beat me!
My eyes were opened to the Appleseed way of instruction. Thanks to the instructors and shoot boss(es) who constantly steered me the right direction. Also thanks for covering for me and allowing me to shoot a couple AQT's. Two years is too long a break.
Congratulations to our new riflemen. Next time I'll know to ask to work on both ends of the line so as to meet everyone at the shoot, not just the 1/2 that I was helping.
I hope everyone signs up for another Appleseed. I've learned that every event has its own personality. And I know that we can give more/ better/advanced instruction now that you have one under your belt. I'm looking forward to it.
