Just 12 more days till the shoot. I hope the weather turns warmer and drier.
I talked to a fellow local PGCA member today and he's going to try and bring his back action Parker S/N 66 for inspection. He's willing to have the gun disassembled (within reason) so we can get a good look at the innards. There is a small kitchen for an egg sandwich and coffee for breakfast and the usual hot dogs, hamburgers, etc. for lunch. Pies for dessert. We usually go to a local sports bar after the shoot for some beer and wings, etc. Hope to see some new faces this year!!! |

One memorable year we had a torrential downpour all morning. No shooting but we still had a great time talking SxS's and hunting stories. Can't wait for the wings (and beer of course.)

Beautiful day today and I stopped in at Blue Ridge to make sure everything was on schedule for next Saturday. The parking lot was packed at 11am! Since the club is open to all shooters, not just SxS guys on Saturdays, it might be a good idea to start out shooting the Wobble Trap and 5 Stand first until early afternoon, then shoot the SC course. I went back at 1:30 and it wasn't nearly as crowded. Just a thought
As you enter the club grounds, you'll see the blue pavilion on your left, that is the 5 stand. As you enter the main parking lot, the road going down to your left, you'll see the Wobble trap pyramid, and the main clubhouse to sign up in will be on your right side of the parking lot. The weather for next Saturday is looking OK so far. See you all soon. Chuck |

If we have the same weather Saturday as we had at Prospect Hall, WV today the shoot will be fabulous. The Virginia Vintagers had a great bunch of shooters show up today. Many Parkers were in attendance crushing clays to dust.A great time was had by everyone.

Egger, George and I arrived home last evening after attending this great shoot. We drove down to Harrisburg Friday afternoon and spent the evening at Chucks home. Saturday morning dawned a bit chilly but without a cloud in the sky. Blue Ridge Sportsmans club is a first rate venue with great targets and all the members treated us like family. Many of the usual suspect's from the area were in attendance including many friends from the Virginia Vintagers.It was great to see and shoot with many old friends after a long winter. I estimate some where between 40-50 shooters shot the event. I think I can speak for us all that we had a great time and I would recommend this event to anyone that can attend. The trip home was uneventful even with Egger stuffing the Ford insignia into a few trunks...
 I want to thank Chuck and Marge Bishop for their hospitality and putting us up. A tour of the PGCA Research office was great and Chuck explained exactly what doing a research letter entails from start to finish. Believe me when I tell you guy's it's a great value for the money. A few pictures for you guy's....
