An event that will certainly grow exponentially. However, I found this passage from the cited article a bit amusing:

"Back Woods is less than thirty minutes from downtown, so wives can jump into town for the day while the men gawk at hammered and hammerless works of art."

One wonders if "hammered" was the best choice of construction...

And the majority of the wives I know like to shoot or at least accompany the shooter in their lives.

Mike, you're not coming? Who else is going to shoot 1,000 rounds with me? I can't be there on Thursday this year, but I plan to be there bright and early on Friday morning, staying through the weekend. REALLY looking forward to this one as usual.

Mike
