The Southern was a great time. If you have never been you are missing one of great, classic events in the vintage gun world. There will be another great event at Hausman’s in September when the PGCA holds it’s annual meeting and awards banquet.

I just got back to my room in Sanford after watching the Muzzleloader event. My eyes are still watering. Those boys put a lot of smoke in the air. It was a great weekend and I agree that if you have not done this before you need to make the trip. I have lost count of how many PGCA members that I met over the weekend. Had the chance to shoot a round with Bruce Day which was fun. Spent a good deal of time chatting with a lot of good Parker aficianados. One of my best Southerns and I never bought a gun. The name badges work great. Time to start planning for next year. Thanks to everyone for your generosity.

The youth shoot was a great success this year had 11 shooters in all age groups, maybe some photos will be forthcoming from some that were snapping photos, Gary

Mark your BIGGEST find was most likely a very special ring, maybe I should call it a recovery. Lucky couple. Glad it worked out. Good meeting you.

Team LC won the 16 Gauge and 10-bore Team events; but lost the 20-bore event. Apparently a Parker shooter and an LC Smith shooter each got a perfect 30/30 in the 16 gauge event which is amazing. These events are not official PGCA/LCSCA events, but not sure who was in charge so I am posting

My time at the Southern was short but very enjoyable. What a pleasure it was meeting Bruce Day, Chuck Bishop, Bob Hayes, Mike McKinney , Randy Roberts, Brian Hornacek, and probably someone I have forgotten. What a great display of 20 gauge guns including Gary C's hammer 20s!
