My best friend told me he could teach me to become a better shot, and of course I asked how
1. I have to shoot one gun only.
2. It has to be an OU.
Told him no thanks, I'll just have to settle for mediocre--and just have fun.

That’s the very PGCA banner I’ve been talking about for a month now.

Where’d that one thrn up from?.... must have also come with the missing tablecloths.

Nope, the banner came from our buddy Mr. Suponski and the tablecloths (2 ) were sent by Brian Hornicek. Don't know where or how they go them. Were they the missing items? Don't know but they didn't indicate they got them from the Vintage Cup last year or I think they would have said so.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words! Our staff worked hard all week to give y'all a nice shoot. The weather also turned out perfect for mid-summer. Already looking forward to the 2021 events!! Until then, break 'em all!!

Pretty strange, but I’ll drop my quest to find them - they’ll turn up someday...

Dean
I think I saw a bunch of LC Smith shooters cleaning with maroon patches..... just funning you.

But fun it was!

Highlights.....Hats off to Randy Roberts aka ...Have Long Barrels Will Travel, very impressive shooting handicapped as he was with the antics of Harold and I.

Rock Mountain you all ROCK! I thought it wonderful to see a Boy Scout Troop work as trappers. I greatly appreciated seeing the youth award. Very nice prize!

Lancaster County was represented well by their youth S x S shooters. I heard more than one comment of “ quick hands and good eyes”!

Pro/Am event - shot like a Protector was added entertainment,and great fun to watch.

Entertaining targets - I went 6 x off the trampoline so like someone said prior “more trampoline “. Now the Rock Mountain version of the rabbit.... think it got a new name “Expletive Kangaroo “ because rabbits don’t hop that high. Well they maybe do there in the Endless Mountain country because I did see a bobcat driving in. I managed to not hit the bobcat, didn’t hit any of the kangaroos either. We got a good dose of grouse coming out of trees, and squirrel gliders jumping off the mountain tops. Little bitty black squirrel gliders.
Very interesting use of different colors. My compliments to Mike, you made all the courses fun and I am looking forward to getting another shot at them next year.

Maroon patches - Good one!!!
