Hi,
Sunday was the monthly Bowling Pin Match at our club. It was warm and humid, but for the morning hours bearable. There were several fans putting out a breeze that really helped.
I was glad to see some of my shooting friends show up. While waiting to shoot our runs, we were just shooting the breeze, catching up and wondering when the shortage of ammo would come to an end.
I did okay this weekend. Not my best scores, I was not happy with my shooting. But they were good enough to win 1st in the center fire and 2nd in the rim fire. My time on both categories was longer than last months by 2 seconds in center fire and by 3 seconds in rim fire. Until the final scores were posted on the web site, I thought I was much slower. I was surprised by my time in a good way and a bad way. I need to keep practicing.
I was surprised by one woman's comment. We were talking about the match and I told her I had been out earlier that week practicing. She looked at me, in a surprised tone said, "You practice this?!" I said "Sure, and you don't". She just shook her head. I did not go further with her on the subject, but surly if you want to shoot better you've got to practice. Oh, well.
I sighted in my 41 revolver for deer hunting, last week. It is right on target. The doe season starts in early September. Very soon I'll be sighting in my 7mm 08 and 270 for the rifle deer season at home and for our Colorado hunting trip. Using airline miles for the airline tickets makes the cost of the trip bearable!
So looking forward to the hunting season to start. I need to fill my freezer, my families freezer and then give any other deer to Hunter for the Hungry. What a great organization.
Take care, good hunting and good shooting.
M.
