David, I spent some time with Mark over the holidays and as you suggested, invited him to join us at Drake's in Feburary. He won't be joining us. He, and I quote " just doesn't have the interest in shooting that he once had." Hope you had a great holiday! Looking forward to seeing you next month.

Thanks and see you in Feb. I know his shooting has deteriorated in the last few years and that bothered him. I am fortunate that mine was never that good so I am just happy to hit a few. David |

What's the agenda? Arrive on what date? Is this a one day shoot? What's the plan?

By necessity, we plan to arrive Friday night, shoot all day Saturday, have dinner Saturday night and go home Sunday morning. Others may stay around Sunday and maybe Monday.

I spoke with Dan last weekend when I was there and told him that we might be coming back in February on Presidents' Day weekend. Dan has a large event coming up in March and he's trying to get the new clays course finished before then. If he gets some good weather, he might have it done when you guys come. It's 90% complete right now, so cross your fingers on that one. I might be able to shoot on Friday afternoon, but for sure all day on Saturday and Sunday.
Rich, I also told him that I felt we would have a large number for the Spring Southern, and outlined some of the plans with people coming up a day early to shoot at his place. Dan said we should let him cook for us all one night. As I stood there and smelled the brisket he had been cooking all day, along with the smoked Salmon and Pheasant, it was even easier to take him up on that offer.
