Enough of the "newbie" (mind you it's only my third BB match and am still committing stupid errors!), here's some of the "A" team:


Huzzah! for the target resetters! (Way back at the ram line)


Standing champ at work.

But he wasn't alone:

Or maybe he's shooting!

Note the pistol under recoil....

Thank you all for your help .. BLESS THE TARGET SETTERS .. with thermometer in a truck showing 117 degrees in the sun the BLACK heavy rams could not have been fun .. There has never been a more helpful group of people in the shooting community than IHMSA shooters. They will give you all of information you need to beat them .. Then it's up to you. I think JMOORE may be stretching reality a bit. I doubt I will be a monster EVER .. I can't see the rams . Whatever part of the blur I was aiming at was the wrong part. I will say it is the most fun I have ever had shooting IHMSA. After hitting 9 out of 10 Turkeys I wanted to do the happy dance. But at 100 degrees in the shade I would have passed out .. i would have loved video of the 9 out of 10 turkeys.
ALSO it was not a spotter error for the 2 lost chickens .. Earphones turned off and a failure to count was 99.99% of the error . I will blame him .1%

I tend to think that it was indeed the shooting box! Great score first time! I love seeing the enthusiasm of new shooters.
We enjoyed having you at the match, and Imthink you will be back! ;)

Now that I think of it it must have been the box ! you have seen me shoot before and know I can't hit anything .. Mystery solved !

[jmoore]

If a little is good then too much ought to be about right. So...:


Later in the day.

I feel for Lance F, who is a new shooter and has yet to find a spotter, especially off in the lonely Field Pistol/Small Bore barn:



And Richard P who lost his usual partner.

kdiver58,
Great shooting, you have taken to Big Bore like a fish to water.....looks like you and jmoore make a great team. Now we may need to work on locking those knees together in the creedmore position for an even more stable position.

[StandingTall]

Ain't no need to feel for me jmoore. I'm having a great time even if I'm not up there with the rest of you ruffians!

I'm just glad you spotted for me a bit a couple of matches back. If you hadn't, I'd never have known I was ringing those FP rams. I'd have just thought I was missing 'em! Thankfully, I've worked up a proven load now for those light bullets that will knock 'em down instead of having them laugh at me when I hit 'em!

Sad thing is that I may not be able to shoot another match for the rest of the year
I have two nephews and a niece getting married and I know for sure that at least the next 2 months are not going to work and then there is the state match.
