Dave, our first or second New Year's Day Shoot was done in blizzard-like conditions.
We all turned out for it, Pete, Scotty, Bill, Bobby, Robin, John Dunkle, Dave & Danny Suponski, Austin and I'm sure a few others....
But we're older and wiser these days... well, older anyway... and more in tune with our creature comforts. But I'll tell you, in those blizzard-like conditions the targets were unbelievably challenging!!
