Ft Worth, TX- March 25, 2018

Tumbleweed

The weather called for rain, but all we saw were cloudy skies.  Eleven shooters on the line, most were beginners.  Everyone seemed to have a good time and had a great attitude.  One day event, but managed to fit in one AQT.  The time monkey prevented us from awarding any Rifleman patches.  Many of the shooters expressed an interest in returning or possibly attending a 2-day event in Waco.  We were able to present The Prizevendor with an Orange Hat and Flighttime with a Red Hat.  Special thanks to The Prizevendor, Flighttime, Mercedes, AF5US, and Steck for their help in making the second Ft Worth event a success!

Thank you all,
Tumbleweed

Sounds great!  Let's get some two day events in Fort Worth  :)

Jim,

This range is not available to Project Appleseed on Saturdays - there are prior commitments.  I understand the value of a 2-day event, but as it stands if we want to pursue that, it would have to be at an additional range.

That said -
We are starting to generate additional instructor interest (not just shooter interest) in this range.  In 2019, it may be possible to share the load a bit and have more than 6 shoots at this location.

Great shoot Tumbleweed!
