What a great weekend! I think the 3 first time shooters that came with us Saturday will be back.
Thank you to all for coaching my wife & daughters.
best joke of the weekend was deffinatly "i need to lose a few minutes of angle."
had awesome time shooting at the 300 yard steal my little .22 :---
Ah an Easter appleseed....
I am grateful for all that came out for all or part of the weekend ! Saturday had 13 eagar appleseeders enjoying the day of Marksmanship and Heritage as well as some nice spring weather on Saturday. IIT badelve scooped up his whole family minus dogs to come shoot ( Huzzah Marilyn for giving it go and persisting O0) Mo'gun the eldest daughter managed to 7th step two more shooters to come so huzzah to that ! Groups improved as we went through the appleseed paces and smiles began to widen as groups shrank...hmm an interesting paradox ! By the end of saturday we had one repeat rifleman Unforgiven, and one new one ! Raygun ! congrats guys. there also a few more knocking ever so close ...Jim...a 200 IS painful lol I'm sorry you couldn't make it back on Sunday but I'm sure we'll see you and ed again ! .Tom ....wow you were shooting great as well please come and bring your wife with you next time and I am sure there is a 210 in your near future as well ! Michael...ok kid you can shoot and your little brother isn't too bad either O0. Karen come again too!! you'll see it gets easier !
Sunday was Easter and we had a smaller group. The best part of it though was the time that permitted us to abuse steel at distance both at 300 and 500 yrds ! on to the pics.

what a great shoot! I'm very glad that I went to this one! thanks to all the instructors and lisa for their dedication(the food was great). It was great meeting and shooting with all of you. Thanks to Posterboy, half cock and Bad elve for letting me shoot your rifles. I must say that this club that hosted the shhot is awesome! I would join in a minute if I lived closer.I cant wait to do it again.
take it easy, Darwyn
Had a great weekend attending my first Appleseed Project. Enjoyed the people, shooting and the food was awesome. (thanks Lisa) I will definitely be back with some friends, and when my wife (bowchik) has some some time off from her archery tournaments I will bring her too. It will be fun to see if she is as good with a gun as she is with a bow! :) Great thanks to the club for hosting such a nice event!!!! O0
Glad you came ! nice name btw 8)
Bring your wife back next time ! I am sure those skills will translate well !
