Mark,

Thanks for the pictures and the ones on double gun bbs.

Did anybody shoot the Bo Whoop event?
How were the targets. Any details would be appreciated.

John

John,
The targets [5pr] were incredibly challenging for the Bo Whoop. First target appears at about 40yd. and the second target [coming from the right] is at about 60+yd. when you get get back on the gun for the second shot. Three shooters tied with a five [ I only managed a 4] and a shootoff decided a winner with a 2 out of 10 pairs. To say the least it was a blast and was well run by the Fox guys. Like the challenge at the Southern it is the main reason I attend. The clays course is very challenging and there are an interesting mix of targets. But the reason that everyone should try to make this shoot are the great group of shooters that you meet representing the various manufacturers. To the Fox guys, thanks for a great event and to the Parker guys [I don't have to mention names] it was a pleasure and an honor to spend the weekend with you all. What a great group of guys. Also a big thanks to Kathy Romig and Debbie Frye for putting up with our behaviour and spoiling us with handmade sandwiches and snacks at the nightly happy hour. It don't get no better than this. Can't wait till next year- hope yopu can make it with your 34'' made for Bo Whoop gun.

Thanks Mr. Corona,

Sounds like a great time and great event.

I might have to put that one on the calender for next year. That is if they will allow me north of the mason dixon line.

John,
If need be I'll sneak you across the M/D line with my Virginia lab and her Eastern shore of Maryland partner. Lose the Southern drawl and you'll be in like Flynn. [The club is located off Flynn Rd.]. Sorry I could'nt resist. Besides, the club is located far enough away from Gettysburg that nobody really knows who R.E. Lee was nor what he attempted to do. God bless Ole' Virginny.

Sounds good.

Your story about Gettysburg was way cool. It has me on a kick here of late. Told it to one of my assistants the other day and she got goosebumps.

Hope to see ya soon.

John,
When my grandson and I left last weekend from the Old Forge shoot I took him to his first Civil War battle site- Cold Harbor. Other than SxS's and shooting them the CW is another one of my passions.
