The last pic is the 1st squad to shoot. The second squad consisted of Tireman only, due to the fact that he arrived a little late. The shooter is George IV, aka Bacon Buddy1. The fat old fart in the cammo is me. Ryan42 in the white T shirt to my right, then Brandon, Ryan's son, a really good kid, and he shot all day! Before we started shooting I told everyone that one of the two young men would win, it turned out to be Bacon Buddy1, but Brandon was right in there with the best of the best on this day! Gvw3 is the last man on the circle, and Bobski is sitting on the bench keeping score, and firing the pigeons.

One more shot for Beth! This is an old Mill on hwy 181 called the Hogdon Mill. The water flows from a natural spring, right out of the rock! They used to let you drink the water, but alas, our comunist leaders have decided that the water, being untreated, and not filled with harmfull chemicals, is not fit to drink!

Ryan you didn't do anything to deserve this. Some of the best people I have know over the years have had the worst problems. It's just the way the cards fall.

God has a plan for all of us. I think we are only here to learn.

Looks like everyone had a great time.

Good pictures. Thanks all, for posting.

gvw, you scores speak differently. you are strong in some areas.
but those 8 foot leads shooting in front of everything hurt you the most. its obvious theres a eye to gun sight alignment issue that needs fixing. what youre looking at isnt where your gun is pointing.

Sit down with your Bible, and read the story of Job. It's not about what we did wrong, it's more about how we keep our faith! Prayers for your wife sent.
