The NH boys and I had a great time. What more can you ask for? Great weather, great people, lots of shooting, and seeing and talking to good friends. We got to PA early on Wednesday and shot "The Rock" and were very impressed. The presentation of the targets and the club house is beautiful with a Mountain Lion staring at you when you enter through the door. I'm sure the shoot in September is going to be a huge hit.

We stayed at Betty's farm house which is about 4 miles from HHH. Scott has been going to PA to hunt deer since '92 and Betty and Scott have been friends ever since. She treats us all like her own kids. Home cooked meals, nice scenery, very peaceful, and lots of laughter.

Here are a few pics....

It was a great time as always, with good friends and lots of shooting. The highlight for me was the unexpected opportunity to shoot some double rifles. There was a 360 hammer gun and a Holland & Holland 500 BPE (black powder express) very,very cool I NEED to get one of those.

As usual HHH provided me with another fine firearm that was in desperate need of adoption to a better home

You know Frank... until recently, I thought you WERE one of the NH boys. I still get confused.

We gave him an honorary membership and a Green card so he can come and go from NH for his shooting lessons with us. To be honest he's a really bad influence, encouraging us to buy Lefever's, Fox's and Ithaca's.
