    wow

    I was wondering the same thing. I thought we had a nice conversation before the match started. And we all commented on how unhumanly fast he is with the levergun but wait. Let us not forget about the pretty PINK gun and the purse he brought to the line each time.:D

    Gosh, I meant meeting NEW people! I already know all you guys. Didn't realize that Kenny was a board member, and I didn't realize who Simon was. I'm bad with name as it is, and trying to keep real names and screen nemaes really screws with me! I'd argue more, but I had a long, hard day putting up a new Garage door today, so I"m in no shape to get into a battle of wits!! Just looking forward to seing the match results to see how I did;I"m sure not as well as I have done. It must ahve been teh rhinestones messing with me!!!

    I'm sorry I missed, but I did get my gradebook spreadsheets built for all of my classes. It's a pain in the a** because none of the lists I can access online of my students will allow a direct cut and past into a spreadsheet.

    Isn't that the same excuse you used about league night a month or so ago? Just getting around to it I see.....

    It is ok, I have seen you short stroke your little rifle before ;)

    Thanks, Savage Eagle, for the vidio. Never thought of myself as an "Ol Boy, but I guess the gray hair and tri-focals qualifies me for that title. Glad to see the vidio of the fire breathing S&W. For those who asked, the load was 7.6 gr. Power Pistol behind a 124 gr. Rainier flatpoint. Don't try this load in any alloy frame gun! Start low and work up slowly. I'll see what I can cook up for entertainment next time.
    The vidio was a big help in training. Great to see what you are really doing VS what you think you are doing.

    LOL That's just my universal "that guy" phrase! No offense intended... I can make DVD/CDs of the pics and vids if anyone wants copies of the originals. I realized I couldn't email the videos when I got a message saying attachment limit reached... Pictures I can email, vids, no.

    That S&W was just an awesome sight to watch. Everyone taught me a little something at the match and I appreciate it. I definately need more practice before I compete, but I can't wait! :rockwoot:

    LOL my aim on small targets at 25yrds is my weak point with a pistol. I've only been shooting pistols for a year now and haven't had much practice. I'm not a bad shot, but I'm not great either. Shooting a small steel targets wouldn't be my strong point right now which is why I say I need practice. Hopefully I'll get a chance to practice more before next month's shoot! :rockwoot:

    I've only been shooting 6 months and I've shot in a USPSA match. You have had LOADS more time to practice than I have. And the boys can attest that my bullets are allergic to steel. Stop making excuses and go shoot. ;)

    CORRECTION CORRECTION
    The 9 mm load mentioned above for the "flame throwing S&W was incorrect.
    It's 6.2 gr. Power Pistol
    When you get old you get confused. I was thiinking a 40 S&W load not 9mm.
    Never trust information you read on the internet. Always cross check and verify.

    Slacker,
    Nobody's should be looking at the brand of your pistol. All that counts is the time clock and if you can hit the target. This is a shooting sport, not a game of who has the fanciest, most expensive pistol.

    I believe that too, and I am getting pretty good with that little C9. I have only had it for about a month now, but I have thrown more than 300 rounds down range with it so far, and each time I get out to the range I see some improvement.
