14 Days Until this Year's NRA National Smallbore Silhouette
14 days to go and I still am crappy shooter.
I was hoping to at least make it to mediocre. No such luck for me.
I am looking forward to meeting some of you fellow shooters while I a there.

I usually save myself for the big matches. Then when I get there I forget where I saved it.

Re: 14 Days Until this Year's NRA National Smallbore Silhoue
I got very sick just before the Ironman in June. Spent 2 weeks recovering (and fell 2 weeks behind with the household chores and remodeling). So I have only been out to the range once in the last month, and I'm going to my first nationals in 2 weeks. At least I know I'm only going to have fun, cause I sure haven't practiced enough. We can commiserate over a beer in the evenings David.
I buy all my guns from t-rex. He's a small arms dealer.

OldRanger, I feel your pain; normally I am lucky to shoot scores that will qualify me as a B class competitor but who knows now.
I will be easy to find at Nationals, I will the one wearing a hat and sunglasses .

Yeah that should narrow it down. I'll be the 6'2" ball of sweat with a winter camo hat on. It helps me to think cool.....DavidABQ wrote: I will the one wearing a hat and sunglasses .

I will be wearing pants if that helps? I almost always wear pants when I go shooting.
The name on my tag will be David Barboza if that helps.

Now you guys have me thinking about buying a fancy vest made out of dead cow. JerryG, is the rumor true that you have a pink unicorn patch on the back of your vest?

Unfortunately the vest nor the rifle look that good anymore, the picture is close to 10 years old. Come to think of it my odometer hasn't stopped turning either......damn.Jerry G wrote:They don't sell them vests in no stinkin store.

Well now I went and done it. I shot my 3rd AA score and moved up yesterday. Now I get to shoot Nationals in a class I just barely squeezed into (in hunter rifle). Ahh well, at least I can't be accused of sandbagging!
