I am planning on a spring bear hunt/fishing trip to SE Alaska, so need to fund that first
You clearly do not have your priorities straight. If you had been to just one Flatwater, you would have no conflict.

I would sure like to do both, if only for comparison. :wink:

Ironically, the committee was contemplating a spring bare sporting clays side event at the Flatwater as a side event. "The committee" is basically Atticus and Voss so there's a good chance that it will happen, at least by scotch induced default. With enough scotch, bear hunting and bare shooting aren't really that far apart---why not come to the Flatwater and kill two birds with one stone (so to speak :oops: ).

The committee might just enjoy the anonymity and misinformation that post provides. They are much like Charlie of Angels fame.

side event at the Flatwater as a side event
Moats must be hitting the Merlot hard and early with this "department of redundancy department" statement. This being further demonstrated by his stupor induced mis-identification of the Flatwater Committee, known to all attendees who are somewhat sober as a single despicable despot megalomaniac rivalling Hillary in his hubris, bombast, pompousness, and general lack of story-telling prowess.

I thank you.

Please pass the tofu sauce.

....hitting the Merlot had nothing to do with it, Mike--being a natural sommelier of incisive wit and piercing insight, I was simply trying to appeal to M.R.'s desire for bear/bare shooting--AND to set the record straight--I never referred to "the Flatwater Committee." I was referring to the CONS* Committee, reverentially referred to simply as "the Committee."

*Clothing Optional Naked Shooters---can you think of anyone other than Atticus and Voss that would be likely committee people? Ok, maybe Finkel. :lol:

Options?

#26 Post by Joe Cool »

Oh a clothing optional event for Flatwater would be just peachy...but the attendance rules for that particular event would have to be amended to stipulate committee members only along with hordes of luscious ripe young women shooters. Where to find such participation is the issue?

Perhaps the event could include a ladies "novice class" and committtee members could instruct the beginners on "how to shoot straight" or some similar topic... :lol: 8)

Me??? Heavens no. At my current stage of enhancement, gravity is NOT my friend---ever since I resigned my job as a Chippendale, naked anything is, well, pretty much in my past! I simply picked the most Schwarzenegger-a-likes that attend the Flatwater that would be likely candidates.

I oculd probably handle a little nudity, a little like at elk camp, but the thing I couldn't handle would be if the man with the "W's" or "M's"(depending on which side up) tattooed on his butt cheeks shows up naked, I am gone. Remember the "W-o-W"/ "M-o-M" thread?
