Title: Michigan has a new Red hat!!! IRONSIDES
Post by: Superheat on July 21, 2014, 11:59:06 AM
Hear ye, Hear ye,

It is with great pleasure that I announce the long awaited promotion of IRONSIDES to Instructor.

He goes way back in the program.  He was at ITB's first event.... 

Thanks to IRONSIDES for his dedication to Appleseed and posterity.  I am grateful we have him in our cadrae.

From their first Appleseed in August of '09:
QuoteMy wife and I just back from Fenton, and I had to get on here and say what a great time it was (after I cleaned the guns and showered of course). The weather could have been better, a little warmer and less rain would have been appreciated. But I don't think the camaraderie or the Instructors could have been better!
This was my first organized shoot of any kind, and my wife basically was not a shooter. I was amazed to find out how much I didn't know about shooting with a sling. My wife and I really appreciate the help and attention we received. Her best score was a 165 on the AQT which I thought was very good considering her lack of experience. The best I could do with my Mini 14 with iron sights was 195, so I wimped out and swapped rifles with my wife for my scoped 10/22 and got my Rifleman's patch!  :).
I really cannot say enough about our Instructors, and everybody that was involved with putting on the event!
I'm going to try to work out my schedule to be at the event in Oct. in Williamston, Hope to see ya'll there.
Mike and Beth
