A most excellent event!  Thanks to our shooters and fine instructor crew.   :F :F :F :F

It was excellent to see our old friends Josh, Brian and Jerry out again.  Your camaraderie made the weekend fun and you are all knocking at the door with scores consistently in the 190s.  Next time!  Practice that NPOA and you'll be there. 

Gary and Austin.  Can't believe the progress...going from "never shot an Appleseed" to consistently shooting in the high 100's is clearly a case of excellent instruction great skill and persistence on your part.  Hope to see you guys out again, with many friends. 

Thanks for everyone's attention and interaction on the history.  You are why we do this   :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow:

J-Dog, Snipette -- great work this weekend and most excellent history!
DSS and Rascal -- thanks, you made the weekend easy(-er)

This is Jerry :)

Another very fun event!

I came very close but missed the mark with a best score of 204! towards the end of Sunday the wind and sand mixed with exhaustion and soreness took its toll

My First Event with SteelThunder, which was a great experience, his enthusiasm for long range is very obvious and i will always remember one of his common statements "Doing math is fun! when it involves guns..."

the brief time with DSS was beneficial

J-Dog showed great potential on his path to instructor

and what can i say, an Appleseed wouldn't seem right if Snipette and Rascal weren't involved they both have been at all 3 events i have participated

Jerry, thanks for the kind words. I see a Rifleman patch in your future.

Steel Thunder, DSS, Snipette, Rascal, it was a pleasure working with all of you.  Looking forward to the next shoot.
