In this day and age not to wear eye protection could lead one to historically correct eye injuries or blindness in ones eye...

The graft is a little weighted. Much of the low end was caused by high childhood mortality. Someone who made it to physical maturity had a good chance of seeing fifty to sixty even when life expectancy was below forty.

Thanks. The silhouettes are plywood. We do a single elimination match with simple rules. At the completion of the 10 steps, the shooter turns towards the targets, rotating AWAY from each other. Winner is first shot to hit. Holes are easily covered by black electrician tape.

Hmmm...Back when I was young I WAS invincible, but no longer I'm sad to say.

Just before the end of the Soviet Union one night at work we got talking about nuclear war. Our secretary voiced the idea that if war came she would run outside and wait for it to end.
I said you think they will waste a bomb on Podonk Arkansas? They would hit Little Rock, maybe Springfield Mo
They wouldn’t bomb us she asked, I really don’t think so I answered.
She asked what I would do. I said I would put my neighbors in my smoke house.
How would you feed him she asked.
Oh you have the wrong idea, they would feed me and their cattle would be there next year
