Wonderful weekend with Project Appleseed and the rain Saturday was not allowed to douse this "Brush-fire of Liberty" on the Left Coast of Florida.

What a great group of friends, old and new, and a incredible instructor team. Honestly this Shoot Boss was feeling a little like a 3rd wheel as the line crew smooth and professional.

Also nice to see is the centerfires coming out as the majority on the line. We had 2 AQT's Saturday and everyone moved out of bootcamp.

Sunday started off "quickly, quickly" and was the BlindDog show while Bill crossed the t's and dotted the i's, well earning his Red Hat. His instruction was right to point as ALL of the students were consistantly shooting 170's and up 206's 202's 199's. Knocking on the door.

Bill has already got his super photos up at

I'll be posting some more after I get home from work. The taxpayers do expect something out of me every once and a while.

"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." - Thomas Jefferson, letter to Peter Carr, August 19, 1785

308LIBERTY

"We have always looked upon men as a set of beings naturally free - that a people can never be divested of those invaluable rights and liberties which are necessary to the happiness of individuals, to the well-beings of communities or to a well regulated state, but by their own negligence, imprudence, timidity or rashness. They are seldom lost, but when foolishly forfeited or tamely resigned." ~Jonas Clarke

Certainly a Job well done by everyone. It was my first Appleseed back in a while and WOW did it feel good!!. Congratulations on the Full Instructor achievement Bill!! This was a well organized shoot and the entire cadre knew well what the're about.

To the students....HUZZAH. Very respectable scores and they kept improving as well as their groups. Keep it up, Dry fire practice (remember ammunition in one room, you and the rifle in the other) practice those positions. You'll be amazed at how well this will improve your marksmanship.

To all a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

We're not a .22 club so get out and shoot ATC, Across the Course so others will realize that.
