Rick is supposed to be up in VA doing a two day shoot in September which I plan on attending the second day . Think I might ask him if we can do an informal 8 gauge thing on his 5-Stand like in the spring at Sanford down at his place in October

Rick Hemingway’s Targets are different than the spring SxS. Challenging but fair & never repeats always fresh sets.

A lot of what I end up doing down there is going to depend on how hot it is . I got severely overheated 5-7 years ago and every year since then it seems to catch me quicker . Got slightly overheated Tuesday night at the local club shooting skeet and got slightly more over heated last night at the place I shot yesterday afternoon . This getting older stuff just plain sucks but on the other hand it beats the long term nap

I was near you at Central Virginia yesterday heat was brutal. We skipped stations in direct sunlight and drank plenty of water. Still cut the session short.

I got overheated Tuesday evening a bit at Piedmont then Wednesday evening I got overheated even more so at a little private shooting deal in the Fredricksburg area . Wednesday before I got on an even keel I’d drunk four bottles of water poured another over my head and drank a quart of something someone handed me with electrolytes in it . I got over cooked 5-7 years ago and ever since then it seems easier each year to get over heated .

Sunstroke victims are more prone to future hits. Ask me how I know. Actually, I read this somewhere, years ago after I had a sunstroke, but it seems to be a fact.
