Hello, my name is Aaron and I attended my first and only Appleseed in October of 2021 at a buffalo ranch near Cleveland, TN. I thoroughly enjoyed it and qualified "Rifleman" every AQT we shot. I've now signed up for another clinic in Manchester on the fourth weekend of the month and am bringing my son along. We'll both be shooting and learning.
I'm an experienced shooter and am a sponsored 3-gun competitor, although I'm not a top shooter, just sponsored. My sponsor is Windrock Shooting Range and Training Center in Oliver Springs, TN. I've talked with the owner of the range and he is very open to hosting an Appleseed event. I don't know what it takes to be "certified" for an event, but I think it would be a great match to put Appleseed together with Windrock and have an event fairly close to the Knoxville area.
Anyway, glad to be here and happy shootin'!
