I will paraphrase Peter H. Capstick when I say, " Flatwater is the time of year when I can realize my ambition of being a Professional Small Boy- if even for only a few days!"

I will echo what Atticus and Steve said about this past shoot as being the best damn shoot in the country. My thanks to Digger and crew and the Executive Committee for their great preparation for this event!
The joys of shooting a 16 bore are only realized when you do it.

Somebody must've overruled Stack and ordered decent weather too. Sunday morning, without wind, was quite a change.

Mother nature has always over ruled my weather choices. I order it dead calm for you Larry, I know a breeze makes it hard on a writer.

Yep I'm a witness to Larry's prowess, at shooting that is. He couldn't miss and was smoking those targets. He had that 16ga Browning auto shucking and jiving and was hitting them faster than a professional whack a mole player.

I think I may have shot them the day before with the Lindner Daly, but don't recall for sure.

Bruce, the check is in the mail. :) I found it interesting that my Sweet 16, which I don't consider a lightweight gun, is actually lighter than Hal Hare's RBL 16. He needs to find himself a nice Parker on an O frame.
