Here is the Final Standing for 2003 Shooting Champ - Scope Class.
To the 1st, 2nd, 3rd place shooters in the Scope Class, "Good shooten!" Please update your signature to reflect your achievement.
I was surprised and disappointed in the participation in this contest. I am sure the results would have been much different with more shooters entering. I do want to thank the members that took some time to enter.
I learned much from this contest in my own personal marksmanship. The main thing is how you used to shoot, is different than how you shoot today! Things change over time. Skills tend to go downhill quickly without practice. Practice is something all of us need more of, whether we are hunters, or using our equipment and skills in self-defense. Without practice we will be nothing more than plinkers. Plinking is ok for fun, but I always felt that guns are tools, and an extension of ourselves. If I may borrow a phrase from our Army brothers; Be all you can be! This fits with ones abilities in all areas of our lives.
I hope all of you have a Happy, Prosperous, and Safe New 2004 Year!!!! I hope along with your other New Year's Resolutions, you will think about shooting more and improving your shooting skills. One day your life may depend on it.
I have cancelled the Shooting contest until more interest is shown. Till then you may post any target (Objects, or paper targets) in this section or make any comment such as range reports etc.
Sorry for the graphics. If you see an error please PM me.
