Here it is the end of the shooting year.
It is the 6th of Dec. I missed the shoot in Az as I was under the weather, Vandy Shot well, she won the ladies main with a 169 a great way for her to end up the year. She had a great year but she missed her goal by a few points to make first team All-American.I think if she did not get sick before the Top Gun Shoot she would have made it.. Oh well. She is starting a new job in a few weeks so without Vac her shooting will be cut back in 2012. I guess she will just have to win the shoots she goes to LOL.

To go over the year of 2011
My shooting year started off with a bang shooting well..till I want to the US Open. That shoot messed my head up big time..It took me till Oct to get back on track with Steve W's  Paul and Vandy help.
The other thing that helped and I think has made a very big difference was going with ear plugs that let me listen to my I-Pod. so it is Hail Hail to rock and roll. It really helps me from thinking to much and my flinching has really dropped off to almost zero.
I did have a dramatic experience at the Top Gun Shoot, my truck got broken into and all of my stuff got ripped off, I felt violated big time and it has taken a long time to get over it.

My Students this year have done very well Vandy kicked butt and is in Master Class. Greg Mackintosh  has gotten back into shooting and has made Jr 3rd team  All-American. Jody Holdten  has made master class Cindy V and Mark F have all punched up in class. Matt has gotten back on track and is shooting real well.

My target setting was a good year. With Quail Point's Fitasc the Top Gun Shoot up in Wa and the Battle Born 100 target Fitasc, And to end it all the New style Fitasc at the  Nationals

Shoot for a cure had a good year with shoots that I did for then in Tx Mi and two in Ca.

Weather looks good for the weekend and we are going to shoot at BB, we got a cart for our Battue trap and will be taking it out on Thursday.
Will be fun.
Than next weekend it is off to Birds if the weather lets us over the hill
Well the 2011 shooting year has gotten under way. And what a great shoot to start 011 off with the AZ open was great
Some really cool stuff this year like I will setting this years Fitasc at the NSCA Nationals in Oct and did I say it is going to be new style!!
If CHHP holds the fall Fitasc I will be doing it, I think they will be bringing down the amount of targets this year.
And we are going to try and hold a 100 target Fitasc and 5-stand at Battle Born in July If the county of Lyon gives us the ok

Marry had to borrow Vandy auto as she forgot her gun LOL.
Sunday was the nicest day of all three, I picked up Jim and meet Paul out at BB, we shot some high crosser targets Paul had to work hard on them as he is learning his new Kregoff than we shot Long high crossing targets, that we fun. Brian showed up a wee bit later shot rabbits and overheads for Paul.
Jim was a wee bit rusty after not shooting for some time, but he did fine.
