Friendship and new experiences
This past week I took off work to help work the local SxS shoot, because the local club supports my youth trap club .WOW , what a experience !
My 16 yr old son and myself tried so many new things .
5 stand, Damascus guns, hammer guns, twist guns,Parker's,vh's,dh's,16ga, a fox,and even a sauer.And that was all very cool.
However it did not compare to the class and kindness found. Several guys insisted we shoot their guns, but wouldn't let us pay for shells. Several insisted we shoot their guns because it looked like we were working too much.I had one guy meet me everyday with a handshake and a smile and advise me on good buys he saw for a beginner . I think he might be my new unrelated Uncle (we just plain clicked) and will be one of the first I search out on any further SxS outings. Then there were the different gentleman that would come and visit with my daughter for a hour at a time at our youth booth, Yes you fellas made her day too !Thank you, Thank you, Thank you .
what a awesome week ! And Happy Father's day

Making new friends, the generosity of the sxs fraternity (and most shooters of other types of guns) is what it's all about. That's what keeps folks coming back and what draws new shooters to the fold.
