He hit it off center with his first shot resulting in the groove you see. Next shot he hit it dead on.


Thanks for the golf ball picture and explanation. Sorta the same deal as the center hit quarter, one light edge hit before the dead on shot!!

Just a note to thank everyone for the good times and kind words, and a special thanks to Kent for keeping camp and cooking.

Don't have a good connection at the moment, so will try to post more later in response/reply to previous posts.

Thanks again everyone for the hospitality and generosity.

Don't remember this young lady's name (old age problem), but she was bouncing the target balls around with that handgun.

This is Kristy.

Terry,

My bride and I are trying to figure out dates to have one here. I just checked Google Maps and it's a two day drive to here from your fair city.
That means that if someone kidnaps you, you'll be gone almost a week. grin

If there is ANY way possible, Id love for you (and your bride!) to make it.

Ed

Wish she'd never shown-up. I fall in love 'way too easily, and that aches a little every time � especially when a particularly huggable sweetie is there no longer.

And... unless I'm badly mistaken, that's my 41 MAG Titantium Tracker she is shooting in this picture. I know she shot everything handed to her, including it and a 40 S & W I had.

I think David kept the Linebaugh hidden when she was around.grin

Ken,

I'm sorry to say that I'm pretty sure she will show up again if at all possible. I hope the ache doesn't last long.

She had a great time and, I believe, was amazed by the kindness, generosity, and acceptance shown by everyone there.

Most likely and with another, Maddie, who couldn't make it this go round.

I'm pretty sure this was the most she had ever shot a handgun, and certainly the greatest variety.

Ed spent a great deal of time with her and the results speak for themselves. I mentioned to her later that had she had to pay for that kind of instruction it would have cost her a small fortune.

Thanks Ed, it doesn't get any better than that.

Tom,

I'm sorry you weren't able to make it this time and hopefully circumstances will allow you to come next year. I will plan on being there again if at all possible and maybe see you then.
