Matt, you have to agree that camping isn't fraught with such monumental decision making.

Harold, I hope the above means that you've damned the abcess and will join us for camping. Fair warning though: this EMT doesn't do dental work!

There are still rooms at Montrose Inn. I got one just now. :)

Me and Matt Valinsky had a great time camping!...good weather for the shoot and the camping. It was good to meet all the SXS shooters from PGCA and yes the Fox boys too. I shot a GHE-20 for the challenge qualifier but only scratched down 29 targets, we only counted the ones that broke from in flight pellet damage! ...should have had my 16. I shot a 30 with my CSMC DE-28 on the small bore course. Next year I will bring a bigger cannon for the Parker shoot! The camping was great fun and the cot made for good sleeping. The fellers who stayed in town missed out on the night life you get when camping...lots of show and tell, single barrel, T-bones, burgers and more. We stayed saterday night and the sky was filled with stars like you never see at home...awesome indeed. Next year we might even get one those hot water shower set ups...(-: Thanks to all who made this happen, it was a great time indeed! SXS ohio

Kenny, it was good to meet you as well and to finally put a face on your name.

Absolutely, I was camped next to Kenny and Matt, and had a great time. Sure, I missed the BS sessions back at the hotel, but it was really relaxing. Edgar and Allen were camped there also, and everyone shared their spirits, food, and the talk was great. Dean, Dave, and Larry had a canopy set up below mine where they could rest a little when they were not working in the Parker-Fox tent or shooting yhe course - thanks guys for all your hard work and dedication.. I met the boys from New Hampshire, Scott, Bill ,Frank, and Pete and tagged along with them shooting--someone has to be low gun. no wonder those New hampshire boys ran the British out in the Revolutionary war-they can really shoot. It was good to see Daryl Corona back on his feet, and knee surgery certainly didnt slow down his gun swing
I loved the small bore course, and shot it well( for me), but the 12 bore course was quite humbling, leaving alot of good shooters grumbling. I may just leave the 12's at home next time. Sorry to say that was probably the last major shoot of the year, but will continue to shoot locally.

It was great to meet you too Harold and I enjoyed shooting with you as well. We had great weather and nice time all around.

I had a superb time, though not because of the well maintained course, fresh batteries or new controllers. NOT....
But the best part of that shoot is the camaraderie. Wonderful to meet SXS Ohio and his sidekick Matt. Great to see the NH shooters. I agree Harold, the NH boys can shoot like he__. (edited for the Mean Moderator).
Great to see the Michigan boys.
Daryl was in great shooting form and let me buy a Fox from him- 30 inch Gen-1 A grade which performed well at the Rock.
It is impressive how far some of our members travel for the NE SXS.
The list of great PGCA people there at HHH goes on and on, but as someone said above- its is a great place to finally put names to faces and vice versa. .....And it wouldn't hurt to have an official PGCA nametag that us regular folks could buy.

I did notice that many did have PGCA nametags, but I never asked where they got them. Very handy for one who often has a hard time remembering names and where he left that Parker laying--anybody seen my DHE 16?

I always save all the name tags I can my hands on to use at gun shows and events. They come in handy. I know last year at Ernie's the PGCA table had tangs out for people to fill out. Others likely kept them.

By the way, I ended up bringing a pet home from Ernie's. A tick that my wife had to remove from the back of my leg on Sunday morning. Check yourselves over guys!

I don't need any PA hitch-hikers... we have enough resident ticks here already.
