Old Guys vs Young Guys 2011, ends July 31st

[hockeyref]

Dang! just when I thought I was startin' to get a team and you go and sign up a whole nother militia company!

WANTED!

100 enterprising young men
to ascend to the shooting
range for a period of 3 shots.
The pay is non-existant,
and the glory fleeting,
But we must defend our honor
in the face of overwhelming opposition
(and show the Old Farts how to shoot :wink: ).

Now, who's with me?

Been a while since I was able to stop in here.... I qualify as one of the youngsters....not yet 46... I'm in.....

[rabjr]

I didn't even bother to score Deadeyes...just put 0.000 down...

 

[lonehunter]

Guess thats why he goes by Deadeye!
Maybe i should change mine to blindeyes! :haha:

 

[DennisPollywog]

Swampy,
They always called me 4-Eyes due to the thick lenses... :haha: and, since I always see two images superposed, I guess I'll just have to turn in two targets :rotf: :rotf:
Please score only the best three-out-of-six...or, is it best six-out-of-twelve
Really does not matter, since I will be lucky to get three on one target anyhoo :surrender: :surrender:
Rest easy Jethro, I'll be shootin' soon :rotf: :rotf:
Shreck the Old & Infirm

 

[GreyWhiskers]

Four of us from Winton and the Greater Winton Area :wink: took our shots today. Two youngsters and two of us old guys. There was some purty good shootin on both sides. Will get targets in the mail on Monday. GW

 

[Lonegun1894]

Jethro, please add me to your team.

Swampy, yall old folks sure you're not using your fowlers with shot and just counting the three pellets closest to center?

And why exactly cant we run off with the old geezers nurses if they're cute and we win? Spoils of war, and all that stuff, right? :rotf:

Welcome to the team Lonegun1894. Aim small. :thumbsup:
We can run off with their cute nurses after we win, just so long as they ain't on duty at the time. I mean, nobody else is gonna want to wipe up after them oldsters, ya just gotta wait until their shift is over. :haha:

 

[Lonegun1894]

Y'all know, I've been thinking since I signed up last night and realized I made a mistake in my thinking, and here it is. We really should quit giving the ancient ones here as much of a hard time. After all, they didnt get to be this old by being stupid. and the fact that many of 'em that have signed up for this were actually old in the last millenium, wellm that really says a lot about their wisdom and will to keep going. Us younguns should respect that. It's not their fault that they cant see, or shoot, or, well, not gonna finish that thought as this is a family site. Lets just be glad that many of them can and are willing to pass on first hand information about what it really was like back in the good old days, when they had to outrun t-rex on their way to school, uphill both ways and barefoot in the snow.

On a serious note, best of luck to everyone cause I think we will all need it--the old guys a little more than those of us still young enough to see. :hatsoff:

Get over here in range o'where I can snag you with my cane and I'll show you how we "talked" cave bear out of their warm dens. He11, I didn't get longer ear hair than your chest hair from listening to youngin's spit up pablum.

Go back to your milkshakes and beatnick music you snotty-nosed whippersnapper.

With our secret weapons like Polygrip on flint leathers and Preperation H patch lube we will break you. You don't think we taught you all we know, do you. BWAH-HAHAHAHAHA!

 

[Lonegun1894]

Stumpkiller,
the only thing you said that i can take exception to is the choice of music, other than that, you're right. And yes, I do still like milkshakes. How'd you know, Wise One? :bow:

 

[54mountain]

Well I shot my target yesterday, and it ain't purdy but I'll send it anyway. I just noticed that the rules say the target should be a piece of paper with an X drawn threw it. I just put a dot in the center, I hope that"s ok

Dang it, Stumpy. I can see a whole new thread here on the merits of Preperation H patch lube! :hmm:

[Lonegun1894]

You don't think we taught you all we know, do you. BWAH-HAHAHAHAHA!

I know you haven't taught us all you know yet. In fact, I know that many of you have forgotten more than I've ever known (so far). But lets not let stubborn things like facts get in the way of this little contest. Besides, I'd like to get some trashtalking out of the way now while I still can, cause I know quite a few of you old geezers are gonna show me how this is supposed to be done and embarrass a few of us whippersnappers. thankfully, this is based on team averages so a few of you knowing how to shoot wont cost us the victory.

Your dot is OK. I just hope it's in the same place where the X thru the center is gonna be.
