Well, the Smuggler's Notch Biathlon has come and gone and I can say that I have finally recovered. It was an awesome weekend for shooting muzzleloaders. Saturday was some of the best weather I have seen in years, sure beats the minus temperatures we competed in two years ago.
This year I made three trips around the course on my snowshoes. Twice with my T/C Hawken and once with my new PA Fowler. I think this was my worse year yet, although I have to say I was really proud of hitting one horizontial with my smoothbore. I'm thinking that I need more practice on those diamonds at 55 yards. It sounded like I hit more of them than were swinging. :hmm: Anyway, it sure was close finish. Almost too close to call Richard Craig beating Gordon Cruz by a mere two seconds! Nothing like a little healthy competition, good thing they're friends.
I've heard rumor that they are building a cabin were station two is. What do you think will happen to the course? I'm thinking it will be a little more up hill. I would like to hear what other people thought of their 2006 Smuggler's Notch experience.
