Past Newsletters
The newsletter that will be mailed to members who want
a paper copy will be the usual black and white print. Members with an e-mail address will receive an e-mail version of the
newsletter, for a media rich, colorfull version of the newsletter. I encourage all members to provide an e-mail address. Last year
we spent over $1,700.00 on postage for the newsletters. In this electronic age, this is unreasonable. We are hoping to save
over $1,000.00 with this style of newsletter.

Shoot-what-ya-brung II
Shootwhatchabrung
II was a big success. We had twelve shooters, one of them was a junior, and he stole the show. We shot at the
traditional poker chip targets that we have used since the event
began, but this time we used the really
good thick ones. Wow, will they take a hit. Suspended bottles of wine fell to rimfires, centerfires, and pistols, after
the poker chip link in the strings
holding them up was shattered.
The last bottle hanging, was the dreaded
rope. This target took us a couple of hundred rounds last time to shoot down. Not so today. We had about eight or nine
shooters into the first round of the event. Trevor Brookes stepped up, and with his trusty .30-.30, dead centered the rope,
sending the bottle to the ground.
I then asked the shooters present if any of them had ever shot at
the edge of a playing card. They all replied no. So, six slots were
cut in the top of the target frame,
and cards were inserted, with the edge facing the shooters. Two more cards were suspended from some of the strings
left from the previous shoot to flutter in the wind. If someone had told me, I would see what I saw, I would have laughed.
These guys took to this like a duck to water. Pieces of cards began fluttering to the ground as they were cut in half
with rifles,and pistols ( Tony was impressive). And, sure enough Trevor stepped up, and cut a card, with his old .30-.30. Tell
me super bowl is going to be better than this. I DON'T THINK
SO. TTYL.
