-1st time competing with a gun that has a thumb safety
-It's either going to be a really good day or I might throw my gun in the lake.



Were you there the day I dumped 13 mags of 45 ammo on one stage with a pistol I had bought earlier that week? :shock: I still hope that no one DNF'd that stage. They would have had a penalty time of about 3 days. Paul's right bring the scuba gear

No I wasn't. Must have been something to see.

Reminds me of the first time I ever shot weak hand years ago. Mag after Mag after Mag ... ;-)

That's what I love about the steel shoots. Safe, fun, practical, and they make you stretch a little ...And it only gets better as the year goes on.

Oh, yeah, and the people. I'm going to miss all you hooligans Saturday.

It'll be my first steel match in almost 10 years. Plus I have a new gun to try out. I'm also in the 'Let's see how this first one goes.'

Congrats on winning MvM.

You guys who doubted the forecast missed out. The rain stopped right before we started to shoot and it ended up being a nice day for shooting. Thanks to the ROs for keeping things safe and fun.

Here's the final Man vs Man:

The weather didnt stop me, but it did my dog. I was all set to leave and she wouldn't go outside because of the thunder. She was so nervous there was no way she was going to pee and poop and I wasn't going to leave her home for day without being "empty" :(
