It was a great week-end of shooting at the second annual Hurlburt Field Ladyseed in honor of Womens History month. The ladies showed up anxious to learn -- both history and marksmanship. We had some amazing ladies: Kristen showed up - on her birthday - determined to better her scores from last years Ladyseed -- AND SHE DID!!! Barbara was incredible overcoming her limitations to make great progress throughout the weekend. I am so impressed by her tenacity and, well, a touch of stubborness (self-described and brother described :}). Thanks for Barbara's brother for coming out to encourage/support her and help load mags, etc). Morgan did great as usual! She overcame multiple challenges to earn a score of 199 -- so close. I have a strong feeling there is a Riflewoman patch in her very near future! Briana also shot very well - and earned a 209---OH SO CLOSE --next time for sure!!! Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate on day two -- the last several AQT's were shot in wet weather. The last AQT was shot in really wet, cool weather. I was so impressed by the determination shown! There was a huge amount of progress made by these ladies. I know that we will see every one of these ladies back and I foresee them becoming not only riflewomen, but instructors as well!!
We had an awesome team of instructors! Our lady instructors are top-notch and all did an amazing job! Thanks to Angelpris101. Also, thanks to Claire Bear and Lucky Lori who traveled from Tallahassee to instruct and a special thanks to Rambo Granny for making the trip here and a very special thanks to MaidMarian for making the LONG trip here to help out!! Thanks to the male instructors that showed up to show support and help instruct, RSO, set-up, etc as needed! Thanks to Engineer Shooting, 9mm4545, and Timber Wolf for traveling the distance, and to Choas07, Stan the Man, and Tim. A BIG thanks to my husband Gunjunkie for taking care of the set-up and making sure that everything ran smoothly!!
As always thanks to the Hurlburt Field Rifle and Pistol Club for sponsoring another great Project Appleseed event.
A great weekend filled with determined women, teachable attitudes, and some darn good shooting!
