More shooters in attendance today. Good targets, small bore was challenging. Vendors not as numerous as in days past, but quality was definitely there. More British offerings than anything. Food truck was meh and expensive. I had fun and caught up with a few folks.

Agree with Ed and Craig. Vendors were few, maybe 8 tables (?) and heavy on the European guns. Steve Cobb was set up but a very limited display compared to Ernie's or the Southern. Food truck was a joke but there was Molly's down the road if you were willing to leave the club. George Hopkins and crew were well prepared and things run well albeit a light crowd. Target prices were $67/50 and carts were $100/day. I guess if you want to play you have to pay. Still great to see old friends, really the only reason I attend, but I'm afraid the bloom is off the rose as they say.

Makes me appreciate Ernie's and especially Mike and Sam's shoot even more. Mike's bling puts the VGC offerings to shame, his targets are world class and it's still affordable.
