Thanks Bill,
I'm penciling both of these in on my calendar; I think I can twist Scuzzy's arm into coming as well O0
Give my best to John.

I'm hoping to get up there a few days early and partake of your excellent facilities.  I think I've told you before, Midland's the nicest range I've been on other than Camp Perry, you've got quite the place!  O0

It won't take much twisting. I'd like to get back out there to Midland and see Bill and John.

Sweet. I'm hoping to come back to the Appleseed this year. Maybe I can trade in my frying pan.  What are the odds of getting an RBC in Midland?

There was some discussion about this, and we certainly could accommodate one, but it's not going to happen this year.

Sorry to hijack, are they going to have one in Davilla this year? I didn't see one on the schedule yet.

Hey Bill,

Me and Chuck will be out for this shoot. We're hoping to get there a day early so we can do some shooting on that fine range you guys have out there.

Looking forward to seeing you guys again.

Shot a HP match across the course (200, 300, & 600 yards) with my M14 in Pecos today and won the match - DID ANYONE EVER TELL YOU THAT THE SAME SKILLS LEARNED AT AN APPLESEED MARKSMANSHIP CLINIC APPLY AT THE FULL DISTANCE?

The first Midland Appleseed event for 2012 is about three weeks out.  Y'all take advantage of the extraordinary marksmanship training and exceptional history as taught by some of the best instructors I have had the privilege to work with in about six years of being involved with this program.

No Huzzahs necessary, but thanks anyway, ShadowMan.

The point is the fundamentals taught at an Appleseed Marksmanship and Heritage Clinic work if applied.

GET THEE TO AN APPLESEED - Midland would be an excellent place to start!  :cool2:

Will be there. Me and Chuck will be there Thursday evening so we can have a full day of shooting on Friday. I dang sure can use the practice. Last AQT I shot was a 200! Didn't help with doublefeed on state 2 but that's just making excuses. Did get 86 on stage 4 but that didn't pull my rear out of the dirt. So yeah, I need a day at the range.

Hope to see you Friday out at the range too.

Online pre-registration has ended, but don't worry... you can still pay at the range in the morning and shoot all day.  O0

Don't miss out on this opportunity.  Take advantage of the excellent marksmanship instruction, detailed historical stories told in a way that you've probably never heard before, and honor the sacrifices for liberty made on our behalf.

See how you can become part of the solution going forward.

I was fortunate enough to win the local High Power match at the range today on official NRA sanctioned 200-yard reduced course targets using an open-sighted 30-caliber Service Rifle.

Below is the target for the last stage (slowfire prone) - the X-ring is 1 MOA, Ten-ring is 2 MOA, etc.  I shot eleven X's, three Tens, and dropped six Nines.  Total score for this stage was 194-11X out of a possible 200 points - 97%.

You could learn how to do this too using the same fundamentals taught at an Appleseed shoot.

What luck!  There happens to be an Appleseed Shoot in Midland, Texas on November 10th-11th.

Wake up, Texas - Come to Midland and learn how to shoot, by God!

What's that?  You already know how to shoot?  Well then come to Midland and PROVE IT!
