Being to fat and old to run in the woods it just might however be something to ga watch and heckle the guys onn. Seeing it is only just down the road.

Hey Big John,
I hope to attend your event this year. I tried to get to your web site via the link but I couldn't get there for some reason. Can you tell me the dates of your event.
By the way our event The Southern Vermont Primitive Biathlon and Winter shoot will be held on February 18th and 19th this year. This is a week earlier than last year as to not conflict with any other event. Hope to see you there.
Brew

Hawkchucker, You only have to worry about the clock running if you want to win, most people, me included have fun, walk and shoot and drag our butts out of the woods! Hope to see you,john.

Will you be attending the Smugglers Notch event as well?

 

[hawkchucker]

Well then I will be there. Just please remember that some of us will need O2 when it is done :grin:

 

[Big John]

Hey Brew, St. Johnsbury,vt.. Smugglers Notch, Dalton,n.h and your events are on my to do list

 

[Big John]

Kitchen will be open both days, as for o2 no problem, just no mouth to mouth. What happens in the woods stays in the woods

Hey John, that sounds like fun, I'll have to mark it in the calendar. I had a good time at the last event your club put on, even though it was 100 degrees in the shade! First you tried to roast us, and now you'll try to freeze us, sounds like a blast.

 

[Big John]

Hey Jay, I have a medal from the Rondy for you for shooting the novelty targets, Sun. 12/4/05 we have muzzleloader sight-in day and b.p. shoot.

 

[J.M.]

John, thanks for the heads up. What time is the shoot on Sunday? I could not access the Hanson site. I'd like to come by and sight in for deer season in case I get a chance to go out, and pick up my medal (even a blind hog finds an acorn once in a while!)

 

[Big John]

Sunday's sight=in day and bp shoot runs 12noon - 4pm

Hey Big John,
Today I happened to pop in the video that was shot from last years Southern Vermont Primitive Biathlon and as soon as the video appeared on the screen, there was "Big John" at the Spring Hole shooting station. As for your shooting, your form looked great and you hit one out of two shots.
Maybe I will set up a small TV screen at this years event so you can get a chance to see yourself in action. Looking forward to this years events.[url] WWW.SVTPB.org[/url]

 

[Big John]

Hey Mighty Oak, Trying to pull my event together now, takes time, you know! Looking forward to your event also, maybe i'll have time to try the shooting event this year.

 

[Big John]

The course is setup with additional length.It's snowing and the forecast is more snow this week; the more the merrier

 

[Riley/MN]

And here in the nation's icebox we've had temps in the mid-30's. Rain, fog. Haven't seen the sun since before Christmas.

But I got approved to attend a class in MA the week of Jan 23-27.

I'm gonna see if I can't make it to both the Hanson event and the Smuggler's Notch event.
