Just back and doing a few things - BUT....

This was the highlight of my shooting year - to be able to get together with some old fiends - and some new friends alike. For that? Thank you Pete, Scott, Bob - and all the rest for making this happen each and every year... It is an amazing event.

The food was awesome - the shooting was great - and the Parker's "on site" would have left you "breathless"... In fact - today - I shot my first ever "shot" from a Parker 10 GA. My thanks Frank, for that...

Today was - and is - special... Thanks to each and all - and I promise to post pics in a bit, when I get caught up. I'm still cleaning my great-grand-fathers AAHE, which George shot simply wonderfully.

A Happy 2016 to each and all - and a special Thank You to all that arrived today to just shoot, trade stories, and share. It's what the PGCA is all about - or so I believe....

Carry on..

John

What an awesome day! So great to see everyone which I do not get to do often enough. I have learned so much on shooting, guns and good times from all who have attended over the years. I enjoy the shooting and the food but the conversations are definitely the highlight! Getting to shoot some other guns is also a definite highlight.Thanks to all that let me take a few shots. If you have thought about coming in the past but have not had a chance to make it I highly recommend coming next year. It is the highlight of my shooting year. Side note...someone left a few dollars in one of my empty shell boxes...I will be holding it for you whoever you are! A big thanks to all those who organize this.....a job very well done!

Maybe that is why somebody put the money in his shell box :rotf:

LOL!!!! ;)

That was from me to Frank Cronin for giving me a box of 12s so I could shoot the trap gun in a round of skeet... Pete told me it was Frank's shooting bag - however, I'm surprised Pete didn't tell me his bag was Frank's bag when there is $$$ involved..??

Bob: Just checking. Was there a note affixed to the cash that read:

A.H.F.C.A.
PO Box 652
Fairport, NY 14450

Darn holidays wreak havoc with our recruiting efforts!!

Huh, I didn't realize that Bob had the same style and color shooting bag that I have. Well maybe next time :rotf:
