 :F A wonderful weekend of discussing our heritage, and practicing our marksmanship!  Big Sioux Rifle and Pistol Club hosted us on May 5-6, and we had 3 dedicated attendees on the line!

Joe, who recently accepted an Orange hat, was with us on Saturday with his M1 Garand - Joe, I really believe if your front sight post had not come loose, you would have requalified as rifleman with it!
Joe also brought Billy, who is a friend from work.  Billy scored Rifleman late Saturday with a score of 213, and requalified with a score of 221 on Sunday, and finished up by clearing the last Red Coat!  Great job, Billy  ..:..
Eric had attended previously and is knocking on the door.  Just a little more practice Eric - I look forward to hearing that you scored Rifleman soon!

Tombobay, your assistance was greatly appreciated, and you knocked it out of the park!  Keep up the great work! :bow: :bow:

What a wonderful group of people to spend a weekend with - I cannot think of a better way to spend a weekend!
