Worst for me was at the Arrowhead Gun Club at the 1978 Virginia State Shoot. In the 12-gauge event they put me on a squad with a well-endowed young woman wearing a tube-top!! Didn't get in the shoot-off as I had in 1977 when the state shoot was at Fredericksburg Rod & Gun Club.

God bless the 70’s. What a great time to be a teenager.

We were shooting clays today at the Lewiston Gun Club here in Northern MI. On Station #5, we had four deer within twenty feet of the B bird landing that were absolutely non-plussed by the gun noise, or the clays. They were just moseying through.......

Many years ago, and for years running, there was a big muzzleloading rifle match at King's Mountain, SC, in the park where the Battle of King's Mountain was fought and won by the American longriflemen. it was a three day event with offhand, cross-stick, and bench rest events. It was a big shoot with nice prizes and would draw shooters from all over the southeast in large numbers.

During the middle of one day's shooting a big bison wandered onto the range. Shooting stopped until it could be shooed from downrange. As I recall I was shooting a match with my big Leman half-stock .54 cal. rifle, sitting position. I wanted so badly to take a look at that bison through the notch and post sights on my big rifle, but didn't want to get chewed out by the range officer.

That looks like Lehigh Valley. I know you won't find that at The Rock, Mike poaches them all
