I've put a few photos in the earlier Event thread.

A note for anyone thinking of renting a cart next time: While settling my tab at the end I asked Bernie at the registration desk if she would like to know about a mechanical issue that our cart developed. She said, "No, we don't really care because this is the last time we will be having carts... they're too much trouble and we lose money on them."

Somebody took some pictures of the Fox - Parker Challenge shoot including individual teams and combined team photos and trophy presentation. Looking forward to seeing them.

Thanks, Larry. A superb weekend of great guns, camaraderie and a wee bit of chestnut roasting, sprinkled-in for good measure.

While initially, I was not enamored with the traditional "Crazy Quail" set-up, I think in the end, our adjustments made for a reasonably level playing field. There is no doubt that the 2014 Fox vs. Parker Challenge made a quantum leap forward in achieving the true potential that both Dave and I envisioned several years back.

I would like to thank my fellow scorers, the esteemed Chuck Bishop and Robin Lewis, and add that not once during the battle did we disagree on total targets broken. No easy task, especially when so many revealed only a black underside against the green back drop.

I hope someone snapped a picture on Friday of Robin's tee-shirt? I came from a family where if you weren't dishing it out, you were BURIED alive. Robin's retort put me six feet under!! Great stuff!!!

Kudos again to Mr. Frey's "better-half!!" Debbie shot "lights-out" and believe me, she had more than her fair share of NASTY pairs that were crushed like a PRO.

Onward and upward from here! Next year: ESPN-2, FUJI Blimp and the Fausti Sisters!!

See that.....no wise-cracks, no low-blows.......only the kinder, gentler, softer side of the AHFCA.

BTW----still a few T-shirts left..................

A few more pictures...


1. The Evil "Crazy Quail" traps spin continuously as the clays fly out in an infinite number of horrible target presentations.

2. They shot their best and Team Parker exits the shooting stations.

3. Team Parker, Larry Frey, Deb Frey, Dave Suponski, Pete Lester, and Frank Cronin with the prize that we will take back in 2015.

4. Scorers Robin Lewis, Steve Cambria, Chuck Bishop with Deb Frey.

5. Harold, Edgar, and Allen at their primitive campsite.

Primitive? Because we didn't have hot & cold running water and maid service?
Lightweight.

Was going to leave Sunday morning, but the day was so nice, I went back and shot the main event course, a compilation of the big bore/small bore courses. Shot with Edgar and Alan and had a great time. I shot my best score of the weekend with a beat-up VHE 20 choked cyl/cyl. Looking forward to seeing everybody again.
