Thanks to everyone that came to the Colfax Sportsmans Club this weekend.We started off Saturday morn with a pretty good rain storm that delayed us a little but due to our line boss  (Taylor) keeping things moving ,we quickly got back on track and defeated the time monkey.
Congratulations to Sean for re-qualifying. Special thanks to Mike for making a donation to Appleseed.
I can't forget to mention our instructors that make these Appleseeds fun and safe. Taylor, RustyRed, CalamityJenn, Buckshot,Nate_M, Eccarryguy,and also Crash for helping out . Everything went real smooth.
Sunday proved to be especially challenging with heat indexes well above 100 degrees , with gusty winds that would not allow pop-ups.Yet, the students stuck it out as long as they could tolerate. Most of the students were well on their way to getting their patch.

Thanks to the Colfax Sportsman Club for again partnering with us and also for the hot lunches both days.

It was a pleasure coming down to Colfax and working with such a fine group of Americans both students and instructors. I hope to see all of you (and some friends) again soon. Meantime keep dry-firing and get out to the range. Some pictures follow.
