Drakes Landing report

After Thur at Drakes, Buddy and I shot the D R small gage course four times on Fri. This was a treat! There were all new machines and a new challenging course.

Yes, a good time on Thurs at Drakes. I had the pleasure of shooting with David and Buddy for most of the day. Fine gentlemen and good shots. David, my friend Mark wants to thank you for letting him shoot one of your Parkers. He was off his game all weekend, but he did shoot a 45 at Deep River with his Russian "Putin" gun as we call it and shot 41's with my 16 ga Fox SW and with my 28 ga Ugartechea. I shot at Drakes Thurs/Fri, and shot my !6 DHE and 20 VH at Deep River on Sat. I turned in my normal mediocre performance, but enjoyed myself the whole time.

We shot Wed. afternoon, Thursday, and Friday and Saturday mornings. What fun, there were a lot of SxS guys, the owner Dan told me it was one of the first times that SxS guns out numbered all of the other guns that were on the course Thursday and Friday!

That's something you don't hear often at a club. We had good shooting weather as we only shot in the morning of Friday and Saturday, I really felt bad about the shooters shooting in that rain, but they did.....

It's amazing how this has grown not just by Parker shooters but the addition of Fox and Smith shooters as well as other SXS enthusiasts who have heard the word about Drake's. Good targets, great people it just doesn't get any better.

Even with all the shooting that was done there was still plenty of time to go to Deep River and pay homage (and cash) to the dealers. My 2 gun limit was once again fulfilled
