Title: AAR Spooner, WI June 22-23, 2019
Post by: Taylor on June 23, 2019, 10:22:15 PM
Another great Appleseed weekend at Indianhead Rifle and Pistol Club in Spooner, WI. IRPC has been a staunch supporter of our program through the years. Thank you!

Lots of enthusiasm and teachable attitude on the line. Congratulations to our newest Rifleman, Pat, who smoked the AQT early Sunday afternoon with a 226! Mark got so close at 209 and I'm sure that he will come home from his next AS with a Rifleman patch. Further congratulations to Mark and Abe who cleared Sunday's final Redcoat!

Deane, Ralph, Doc, Mike, Jane and Keith were seasoned shooters who displayed steady progress all weekend and left some fine footsteps for the youngsters Torin, Luke, Nathan, Ryan, Luke, Ramsey and Claire to follow.

Thank you from myself and all the instructors for being such a fine group of students.

Thanks to BugginOut and CJCB for all you did this weekend to make this another IRPC successful and safe Appleseed.

My personal expression of gratitude goes out to my mentor martin who came out this weekend to help all of us (especially ME) knock off the rust and reignite our own flames of Liberty.

Pictures following.

I was hoping to get a photo of me receiving my rifleman patch so that I could post it on facebook.  Does anyone have that?

What an awesome event! Thanks to all the instructors, Mike, Martin, Chris, and Robb for teaching us. I didn't know anything about marksmanship and now I feel like I have a solid base of fundamentals I'm going to practice on at home until I'm able to earn that Rifleman badge (will probably take me a couple more Appleseeds!). The Revolutionary War history was inspiring and a much-needed reminder in the current political atmosphere.

Looking forward to attending another AS and bringing family and/or friends along. Thanks again.
