What an exciting weekend. Two new riflemen revealed! Several more showed their grit by showing up to repeat the feat and several more folks knocking on the door. As usual I am impressed by the caliber of people that we seem to drarw to these events.  On a special note we are pleased to see the return of two fine instructors who have been off the trail for a while, Bigcountry and Sly223, welcome back!
A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.

What a grandiose way to welcome me home This was a fantastic way to get back in the swing of things.
The best way to get the rust off is to be thrust right back into the fire.Seated demos and several blocks of instruction and it was as though I never went MIAðŸ˜,
Fathers and sons and daughters replaced those lost years ago.I know in my heart our ancestors were proud of how we memorialized them this weekend.
My spirit was overflowing with passion and flooded with emotions that poured though my soul Like Fire.
Rekindled old relationships and fostered several new ones.
7yr old Ben not big enough to handle the rifle with out a sand bag however never made a glaring safety issue.Great job.
Kayle also gritted through a full Saturday to earn a youth patriot patch as did Charlie and Justin's fine Son.
We also had young 13yr old Christian  younger brother of Victor the Great,performing fantastically under tremendous pressure of this shadow. He broke out all unto his own with a 223 that I graded. He can now pursue his own path. He is a young man that knows very well what he is about.
Victor challenged himself with a bolt and no sling. Shot a 213 I believe, excellent concentration. Good luck at Nationals.ðŸ'I was almost as proud as your father!
l could go on and on about how great it was just to breath Appleseed Air. THANK YOU ALL GOD BLESS

Welcome back Sly 223 and Big Country, Glad to have You both back on the Trail.

I had the Pleasure of having 2 former Instructors Shooting on the line at St Augustine. Tony H, and Terry

" The Constitution shall never be construed to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms. €�  - Alexander Hamilton
"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."    -- Thomas Jefferson

" The Beauty of The Second Amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it"
Thomas Jefferson

Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property... Horrid mischief would ensue were the law-abiding deprived of the use of them.

Thomas Paine
