You may remember that my son Harry earned a Savage 410 by selling PGCA raffle tickets at Pheasant Fest. That was just the impetus for him to start shooting shotguns and the 410 is now retired to being his turkey gun with Tungsten shot and he is up to 28 gauges. He likes both of my Parkers, Julia's automatics and a Beretta from my father in law.

He is learning the ropes slowly and we have a lesson scheduled too

Mills where is the club you and Harry are shooting at? The reason I ask is my graddaughter moved toSC. in Dec. and I visited her in Feb and am interested in finding a club there.

Thank you, she is a bit out of range in Myrtle beach. Her club is nice but still an hour away. Yours looks like a first class facility.

Mills and family are fortunate enough to be members of and have access to the very nicest gun club I've ever been to. Forest City is very private but they open their doors for State High School shooting tournaments each year. We are very appreciative of Forest City's generosity. An incredible venue.

Please tell Harry that Matt Hanson said hi!! I am so happy he earned his 410! He did such a great job selling tickets at PF. Some day Harry is going to be the president of the PGCA! Super great boy. I am so proud that our organization has great young members.

Thank you very much Mills!!

There is always something interesting to shoot at Backwoods Quail Club. Rick Hemingway, the proprietor, has run the traps at the Parker-L.C.Smith shoot for many years. He is a great guy. Daniel, where is your granddaughter shooting now?

I have been there once and do not recall the name. About an hour from Myrtle beach, small well maintained club with 1 skeet and 1trap field and rifle and pistol ranges all lighted. Will ask the name when I talk with her.

Thank you Harry. We had a lot of fun selling those tickets. Your 410 is a super great gun and no doubt you will get a turkey with it. Good luck!

Bill it is Horry county chapter wildlife action. Was only there an hour to test out her new revolver and wish I could have stayed to meet the clay target shooters who were just arriving but I had an urgent appointment with a soft shelled crab.

Bluefield Shooting Club near Jacksonboro, South Carolina has a wonderful course. Rick Hemmingway from Backwoods sets their targets monthly and they are a challenge. My cousins from Savanah shoot at Forest City and will met me at Bluefield when I'm at Edisto. We got rained out this past summer. Pictured are me, Harrison, Peter, and Gains Scott.

Daniel, The Lovely Linda's nephew was a Horry County firefighter until recently when he just had to move up close to his mom here in MD. His mom and dad located to Myrtle Beach decades ago, but his dad passed away and mom sold the plantation and moved up here to MD. One little brother and his family are still in Horry. Little brother is a teacher and sports coach.
