Very well said Jerry!

I know it was not intentional to leave the ladies out... it's just force of habit.
But I live it every day. I have a wonderful wife who enjoys being with all of our shooting friends. I have two daughters who were brought up in a family of shooters and hunters and I have three granddaughters who are exposed to this lifestyle.

It would be really cool to see a girl win her class.

Years ago- when I shot a lot of black powder- our club had a kid's event at the annual rendezvous. They shot a flintlock, threw a tomahawk and a knife and some archery targets. One year a young girl, who happened to be a direct descendent of a prominent early settler ran away with the score. The club was thrilled

So was she. First prize each year was an incredible hand built flintlock, with bag and horn She shot that proudly in the monthly matches afterwards

George, it will be held on Saturday, April 28th at 1:30 on the five-stand field.

Bring your camera and your reporter's note pad - I need pictures and a full report, names, scores, etc.

Thanks, Dean

Let’s see who can bring the earliest made gun and who can bring the latest gun of the first 25 years.
