The P-S hammer gun challenge was won by L.C Smith, but only by one point.
Dean-probably not as this collector is very private, but maybe for some cookies. It is not me. David |

Wow! I did not even see the guns David speaks about, but did hear about the 34" 410. It just goes to show that, despite a fewer number of dealers, there were plenty of fine guns to be seen. My favorite was an AH at Jerry Smith's table. It was an early one, fishtail toplever and great engraving. I got 152 photos, so I will post as soon as I get them downloaded to Photobucket.

I thought Jerry might have sold that AH at Rock Mountain - the engraving is spectacular!
David, please let me know where to send the cookies. .

It was a great shoot. Rick and the staff at Backwoods always does a wonderful job. Lauren (very nice young lady who works up front) is a hard working person who knows how to get the job done.
Dave Leemon set some good targets. The small bore course was set separate from the big bore events. They set up a really cool flurry event (per the Vintager guys) that was awesome. It got some really good attention from those guys and gals on Saturday. (thank you guys for having the idea to do it) Cant wait til next year. Several Parker members shoot very well and brought home some awards: David Dwyer, Brian Brady, Carl Brandt, and Dave Fjelline. Brian won the hammerless main with his 32" GH dam 2, and Dave Fjelline won the hammer main runner up with his 34" D grade. Brian also won the 410 event with his grandfathers original VHE. (he kicked but with that gun. shoot a high score on a tough 410 course). Also Benjamin Hall was our junior shooter and shoot very well in many events.

I had a great time ! Weather could not have been better and the course was in perfect conditon. Vendor turn out is not the same as the Spring Southern, I still came home with a new gun.
Its worth the trip to see the Parker Club members in person great bunch of guys. One went out of his way to help with a mechanical issue, not only fixed it showed me how to fix ejector problems so I can do it myself in the future.

I was able to get a Hosford Wall Thickness gauge for a great price from Dave Kerr.
