All's Quite

So who is, dare I say it, Super, Mario Barchiesi, who shot a 77 in the Main, 50 straight in 20ga hammerless, a 49 in 28ga hammerless and an unbelievable 49 in 410 hammerless.

That's only 5 lost targets out of 230 for an overall 97.8% average on 230 with four different guns!

I am going to go out on a limb and say nobody is ever going to beat that record.

I had a great time, as usual! The weather was hot, but not too humid, and there was a breeze. I was pleased with my shooting on the main event (41/80).

I came home with a 20 ga Lefever DS, and I also won a raffle prize (a metal plate).

It’s always so nice to see everyone, and the three days fly by. I’m looking forward to next year already.

Once in a while he picks up his game while I struggle with mine and he wins. It's all good bringing in the new breed of SxS shooters. I did give away too many "onesies" this week, that really hurt. Nothing there I shouldn't have hit. Just makes me mad and y'all will pay dearly at the Fall Southern!! I did put up some numbers that usually win there but Mario (another PA boy that shoots Parkers) and two good guys from SD and MN or OH posted some better scores. Stan, Shane and Daniel also shot well. The top 5 scores in the Main were ALL shot by Parkers.

Looking forward to our Northern SxS at Rock Mountain, July 27-30 (nothing like a little promotion) and seeing all the smiling faces of the attendees.

A few pics from the campground. Yea, the attendece was down, but had a great time seeing and shooting folks I only get to see once a year. This is my camping set up, and my little buddy Huck.

A few more, including Shane giving Stan a little advice on how to shoot the target.

I saw Mario at the Vintage Cup and I remembered his incredible performance at Hausmann's. His performance at Warrington was even more amazing.

He brought his A game or maybe his AAA game to the preliminary events at the Vintage Cup; 12ga Hammerless American Classic (50), 16ga Hammerless American Classic (50) 20ga Hammerless American Classic (50), 20ga Any Maker (50), 28ga Any Maker (49), 410 any Maker (49).

That's a 99.33% average for all events, 298 out of 300.

He did not shoot in the 80 target main event, which had trappers at every station, but if he had I suspect the only possible trophy for anyone else would have been second place as I doubt anyone could beat him.
