It was a small intimate shoot with 6 folks showing up on Saturday.

Mostly previous Appleseeders with a couple new faces.

Had a few knocking on the door Saturday afternoon.

Sunday we had 4 return. After lunch, we were down to 2 shooters.

No riflemen scores but there were a few riflemen in the group (if you know what I mean).

I think this ammo shortage is for the birds and may have had an effect on attendance.

I have a few pictures I will post by tomorrow evening.

Others feel free to post your comments....

96 SHOOTS SO FAR!

Cam, thanks for the great instruction, thanks for letting me shoot your musket, thanks for the pictures, thanks for the quick-release sling clip, and thanks for the revolutionary war talks.  And thanks for hanging in there when there were only two students left Sunday afternoon. I have set up a 25 yd range with AQT targets from Fred and have been instructing my wife and son on gun safety, the six steps to taking a shot, shooting positions, NPOA, etc.  I hope to bring my son down to the next Appleseed.

I really respect you guys for what you are doing.  I'll see you at another Appleseed event.
