Planning on being there to defend my title as the "coyote slaying machine" :). This year I won't let it get to a shoot off :)
If you have never been to something like this I strongly recommend you consider it! Great fun, great folks, lots of laughs....list goes on. Last year was my first year going and it is a real blast....literally! LC |
Maybe this is the year I make it to this I know it would be great for me and my son. I have heard a great group usually shows up.
Dick is there a youth category? What is there for camping?? |
Youths get a break in that there are no time constraints, and they get to shoot any of the standing positions as kneeling.
We do recognize the top youth shooter. |
wow its already,
folks...if you have never been to one you should go. |
Sounds like excuse I've been waiting for to buy a gun in something larger than .223!!
Don't expect I would do all that well, but sure sounds like fun! |
So far 1 member along with his son have signed up.:scared:
I thought with all the banter and story telling that goes on around these parts, getting 40 people to sign up would have been a slam dunk?!:thinking-006: |
Well the wake up call was justifiably needed!
Looks like the first 21 or so slots are filled! |
29 spots spoken for!
|
Going to miss it again this year Dick, got to take my mother back to the airport that Saturday.
|

I will be away from computer access from the 17th to 25th, I'll ask for someone to take over entries in my absence. Left Canuck has graciously offered to take entries while I'm gone. |

What is the story on camping, not too sure if I will bring my trailer or just toss the tent in the truck and spend a night roughing it with the boy. Looking forward to it, man am I glad I brought my rifle on this road trip, gonna need all the practice I can get! My money is on the "yappy" guy with the rainbow bullets, I love that guy!! |

38/40 spots filled!
Camping is right outside the range gate. Trailers or tents, it don't matter. |
Had a year to rest up so we are in for sure. Might have to camp under the stars though.
|
2 spots left.....once those fill then we will take reserve names in case some folks in the first 40 are unable to attend.
I will be taking enrolment/reserve list in his absence.....first come first on the list. LC |

Glad to hear there are going to be other first timers there as well as some veterans to show us the ropes and hopefully pass on some expertise. It will be great to meet some more AO'ers! |
