It is nice to see that in today's world an event can be held in a positive light

As others have written the event was well orchestrated by Mike, Susan and Tadd; and it was good to see, talk and shoot with so many friends. Here are some random pics including two of the booths, Daryl dislodging a wad from his 32" 20b Sterlingworth (expand and check out that knock-out rod), and two pics of the Manufacturer's Cup in progress at the 5 stand. The LC Smith team is shooting in both pics.

Harold said it!
Mike, Susan and their wonderful staff make everyone feel so at home! Mike even delivered some delicious eggs to the campsite for our breakfast from 'Brewster' the rooster's hens. For those that haven't tent camped The Rock, Brewster has a little problem with the big and little hand on his clock...... Amazing weather, beautiful setting, excellent facility and great friends, a truly welcome break! Can't wait till we can do it again and many thanks to all that made it so much fun! Ken |

We had warm but not too hot weather. Sunny every day, high in the mid 80's. I shot with Randy Roberts, Harold Pickens, Brett Hoop, and Frank Cronin. We had tons of fun! In the picture of our squad, Randy and I shared my 28ga. Parker. Randy had an outstanding shoot, brought back a lot of "bling." Team Parker came up 11 shots short in the Manufacturers Cup. L to R in the picture are Randy Roberts, Daryl Corona, Chris Griscom, Mike Smith, Dave Fjelline. We had 2 shooters shooting 28ga. guns which cost us some targets but probably not enough to win. L.C. Smith team broke 100 x 125 and Parker broke 89 x 125 and came in 2nd. Morris Baker kept bringing over some rare and some high grade lifters for us to ogle over. Dave Fjelline gets the prize for longest distance shooter when he showed up from California. For once in my life, I shot too good to make the amateur/pro shootoff! Such is life!
P.S. No, the banner and tablecloths didn't show up but we found some to use! |

It was great to have a contingent of young shooters also . Stan Hoover brought his son, and the other gentleman from the York area( darn, cant remember his name) always brings his sons to shoot also--and yes they can shoot very well, and are very well mannered young men. They are Ithaca fans, and have some really nice guns. Stan and I compared our Ithaca 4E 16's--his with cocking indicators and mine made before his without cocking indicators. Should have shot my Lefever G 16,or my PH 20, but opted for my VHE 20 on my final round

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. .
