 A very brisk day in TN did not deter 19 instructors from coming out to shoot AQT's.  After some history and safety review 5 AQT's were shot. Afterwards the shooters got to try their skill at shooting steel targets out to 500 yards.

Congratulations to Ramblin Wreck and Johnny Reb both for shooting 247, Overmountain Man shot 243, Gator shot 242, TNBeast shot 241, RustyGun shot 238, Leadslinger66 and Brad both with 226, Army Vet 222 and Tellico shot a 212.

It was a great day with great people doing great work. :)
There's something special about bringing everybody together outside of the usual class dates to commune & have some fun.

I had a lot of fun, learned a lot, and took lots of pictures.  I am so pleased that Maddie took a blue hat.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin, 1775

"A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies."  George Washington 1790

"[T]o preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them…"

A really good event at McMinnville! Thanks to everyone who had a part in making it happen. The ranging exercise was very educational and useful. Perfect weather for it too.  A very strong instructor cadre in that area for sure. I was impressed with the turn out and shooting. A lot of good shooting. Good to see everyone. I would have liked to have hung out afterwards, but had to make tracks back to Memphis. Hope to be up there for the next one.

Ramblin' Wreck

Good seeing you too. Maybe the next one should be closer to your end of the state if you can find a place that will accommodate us.

Thanks so much to all that took the time to set this up. I learn something at every Appleseed, and this was no exception. Great to see familiar faces and meet new cadre. Happy New Year to all and see you on the trail.
The difference between a novice and a master: the novice does it until they get it right. The master does it until they can't get it wrong.
