After 40 years of the best shooting sport going,I’ve decided to make a decision to retire.I had decided to retire at the end of the 2020 season,but my body isn’t cooperating with me,any longer.
I’m going to miss my shooting friends! The people of IHMSA was definitely one the reason to stay this long.
Jackie Brown.

Re: Time to retire
Jackie,
Been there. Might try a small bore after this COVID-19 thing is behind us. Getting down/up from Creedmoor became an issue.
All the best,
Steve

Re: Time to retire
Jackie,
Sure hate to see you hang up your sixguns.
You have made a great contribution to IHMSA over the years.
My body doesn't want to do what I want it to do either so know your reason for kicking back.
Keep in touch with us here on the forum.
You have lots of knowledge to share with newer shooters.

Hey Jackie,
Hate to hear this, always enjoyed visiting and shooting with you.
Don’t become a stranger bud, looking forward to seeing to around the OKC gun club.
Thanks for everything you have done, your truly one of the greatest ambassadors ever for IHMSA. JR

Re: Time to retire
Jackie - I have contemplated the same thing ! Cannot shoot open sights anymore, cannot shoot the Standing categories because I shake like crazy, and attending a Big Bore match is a MAJOR undertaking - both in time AND finances ! But I intend to continue - at least for a while longer. I think that this COVID-19 pandemic is going to make many of us "reset" our priorities ! Thank you for everything you have done for IHMSA, and for being a friend !! If I ever make it up to Oklahoma - I will definitely look you up !! Stay safe, be well, and may God bless !!
