It was a full line for the 2024 Patriot's Day shoot at Waco.  23 shooters total, a Boy Scout troop from out west in Abilene contributed 9 shooters 15 years old or under!

The weather could have been worse on Saturday, it rained in the morning, sort of cleared and drizzled in the afternoon, then poured down buckets for the last hits count target.  Lots of peeling drenched targets from backers, but the range is covered, so most people stayed mostly dry.  But, on Sunday, the weather could not have been better: sunny, cool, and dry.

Lots of progress during the weekend, outstanding progress on the hits count target.  We had a total of five shooters achieve Rifleman with a qualifying score, including Luke, Logan, Randy, Ryan, and Don.

Sunday afternoon we shot the memorial volley, a final hits count target, and then sent everyone back home, hopefully with a Plan to Improve!
"It is an uphill struggle, but I wish that we could distinguish more carefully between freedom and liberty. These conditions are not the same, though they are certainly related. Freedom is the absence of restraint - a physical circumstance. Liberty, on the other hand, is a political situation denoting the lawful capability of the citizen to defend himself and his near and dear without interference from the state. Note that the Declaration of Independence forcibly and particularly establishes the blessings of liberty upon ourselves and our posterity. I like to carry a pocket copy of the Declaration, plus the Constitution, in my travels. It is a good thing to have in hand when discussions arise."
-- Col. Jeff Cooper, Commentary

Floyd ran an outstanding, professional event (as he always does).  It's a pleasure to work with him, and the Texas cadre.
