Another outstanding shoot with a group of shooters who REALLY wanted to be there and applied themselves to achieve success!

Saturday, saw very mild weather, sunny in the low 50's, and 11 shooters on the line.
While off to slower than usual start, everyone showed outstanding progress, but we only managed to squeeze in 1 AQT at the end of the day...

Sunday, saw 8 returning shooters, and 1 walk on. A bone chilling, damp, overcast, feels like snow, kinda day, but majorly productive in shooter achievement. On the 3rd AQT of the day, the dam burst, light bulbs went off, and many ah'ha moments were had, as 4 shooters made Rifleman. Shortly after a 5th shooter made it over the hump... 5 out of 9 makes the cold day worthwhile!

Here's a link to pics of the weekend courtesy of Mosinguy  and his daughter, our newest Blue Hat..!

As an added bonus, I am highly confident that at least a couple of shooters will also be joining the instructor cadre!  ^:)^

Congrats to all the shooters, the newest Rifleman, and the dedication and effort put into this weekends shoot! Last but not least, thanks to all the instructors for their time and travels to assure this weekends shoot was a success..   O0 O0 O0

Good pics. I wish that I had the time to stay to see the rifleman patches being awarded. I expected that there would be several. Had good weather on the way home so I could have stayed for another hour or so.
