Hidden Hollow Shoot

[J.B. Books]

I had a great time again this year but it seemed to me attendance was noticeably lower. I am sure Ernie has some firm numbers and it would be good to know what is going on. I spoke with two vendors who said they thought attendance had been dropping since the shoot went to a Thurs- Sat schedule. Your thoughts and observations?

Harold his gator and Edgar's tracks in the field. On Thursday it was like driving and walking on a wet sponge.

A Ford Excursion weighs just shy of 6800lbs, but add 60 cans and 24 bottles of beer, three coolers, camping gear and I'm confident we were over 7000lbs.
Even with an aggressive all terrain tire, we just slowed to a stop. Down where Eric's truck was parked, someone put the pedal to the floor getting out, and it looked like two gunnite cannons, totally coating three cars behind him. The entire row along the stone wall was deeply rutted.

So what you are saying is next year no 2 frames and only light beer?

Wow, that makes a lot of sense. Good thing I traded that DH 2 frame in on that 0 frame DHE. However, since I was the grill man and only got the last two ribs, I think we decided 10 racks wasn't enough. Also, I won't need three flats of ammo if I only shoot two rounds.
