This is a good one, Alan

Good idea.

Normally, I would’ve got a pic of working with the 4-H kids shooting outside this weekend, and posted that with a spiel about keeping the next generation interested in shooting sports while God Bless America played in the background.

The week’s rain forced us inside to airguns because I didn’t want to tear up our host’s range driving all over the soft ground. At best, I could’ve posted a video of me going on a rant after kicking out the fourth kid for not keeping their finger off the trigger when they should.
I had a tough day.

It is good you still focused on safety and adapting to conditions which really matters in training.

Thanks, but if we’re having that much trouble after three shoots and a safety meeting, we instructors are failing.

Im surprised there were no submissions. For some reason, I thought it ran through the end of the week. It’s been raining regularly around here. Probably not a lot of outdoor activity.

That’s what I figured, a lot of canceled plans.

Well, the Gold membership prize lives to fight another day!
And yeah, it seems like there were a lot of canceled plans. We’ll be back with another giveaway later.
Thanks to everyone who checked in on the thread.
