You know what they say...It ain't the age it's the milage.

:hmm: Some of that may be the neighborhoods you park in too... :wink:

OK Swampy, mine will be in the mail tomorrow as I finally got to the range today. My grand plan was to shoot pistol, flint musket and three shots with my squirrel gun. I took the squirrel gun, range rod and greased patches. Due to CRS I did not take any ball for the squirrel gun! So I shot my three shots with my North Star West officers model musket. I shot a tight group but off center because I also forgot my spotting scope! I hope my
CRS ( Can't Remember Sh...Stuff ) don't hurt the
Old Farts

Early in the month of July I had a case of CRS also. I took my squirrel rifle and everything to shoot it with but only had pre-printed targets, no 81/2 x 11 plain paper. hHad to wait till my next trip to shoot my targets for record...................watch yer top knot..............

 

You boys have nothing on one of our shooters, He cleaned his rifle at home, before coming to a shoot, and showed up without his lock!!!

[luieb45]

Not really, just trying to psyche out the old guys :wink:.

 

[hoochiepapa]

Swampy,
Check's...er, target's in the mail. :grin: :grin:
I didn't read the rules too clearly, either. If I had known I could sit, well....
I couldn't get back up to the mountains so I hope this is good enough.

You know what they say...It ain't the age it's the milage. My mileage ranks right up there with the elders :haha:

+! :thumbsup:

I drove it like I stole it for probably 40 of my 45 1/2 years..... My dad told me I'd pay for it when I got old.... Well, it feels like the payment came due a bit early! :surrender:


BTW... target's in the mail... and did I mention that I joined "THE DRY BALL CLUB" immediately prior to firing my first shot in this contest? :redface:

 

[Darkgael]

Well, finally got the splint off the busted wrist. It was a little stiff but I was finally able to shoot the target this weekend.
It'll go into the mail today.

Dang! Flaydermaus...you would have had the best target so far if it weren't for that 3rd shot...

 

[Vtsmoker]

Sounds like we all could use a little "Group" therapy. :rotf: :rotf:

 

[hanshi]

Sent mine off in the mail TODAY! You know, the kids on the other team need to realize that we're not old at all; we were simply born a long time ago. :wink: :v

I tore up my knee at work, so I am down and out for this event. Will be a couple weeks before I am mobile enough to get to the range.

Sorry guys. Just hope I am well enough for hunting at the end of August.

Swampy,
Shot today; target in the mails tomorrow :thumbsup:
It was a great day here in W PA, 102 degrees;
102% humidity; 100-102 shots to get three on the same target :surrender: :surrender:
Yessir, a Great Day :bull:

I though we got three shots! :haha: I didn't even take a "fouler".

 

[DennisPollywog]

Dont worry about us, just make sure you get well so you can help us out next time the old geezers need us to show em how this shooting thing is really supposed to be done.

Sorry to hear about your knee Bilder. Get healed up soon.
