Larry/Digger, you have one of the best venues in the country for hosting this event. You should be proud of your contribution to your local community as well as being a consummate host! Your staff should also be recognized for their hard work in preparing for this event.
Considering the weather and the time constraints, you had only a very narrow window of opportunity to ready the course for our onslaught!
Well done, mission accomplished!

Digger,
As usual your grace and professionalism are unmatched. With Voss and Hinck as co-conspirators however you are the cliched, "rose among thorns." Actually, that adds to your charm.
Seriously, thank you for hosting the wonderful weekend--I know that I had a great time--got to smoke some good cigars--be with some great guys--trade some truly cerebral wise cracks--even got to shoot the world's rarest Purdey!! Who could ask for more??
Thanks,
Greg

I am habitually hopeful that I can make Flatwater, but this year I was in Texas working with Haley Dunn, the number one ranked U.S. woman in International Skeet.Stackbarrel16 wrote: I hope you all will be back next year and those who wanted to or habitually promise to, can finally make it.

She'll be in London in 2012. She is a tremendous shooter and a really nice young woman.

Kudos
As the guys have said, Digger...well done!! You, Voss, Stack (and Tiny!) are to be greatly commended for working to put on such a fun weekend for all us ol' shooting nuts. The fact that proceeds help kids learn safe shooting is the icing on the cake.
What a crew we have! I have not laughed so hard or often in ages as I did this weekend!
A few observations. 1. WE NEED MORE COWBELL at Flatwater. 2.Voss makes a nice 16 ga sporting load...contact him for a "kick-free" recipe. 3. Our "newboy" Ash is becoming a damn fine brewer...as Homer Simpson would say..."Beer...Good!"
Sorry we had to head out a bit early...missed seeing some of our good pals on Sunday who were out on the course when we left...but duty in Arkansas called to our contingent. Missed getting books from Larry as he was still out shooting...PM on the way, Col.
One other thing...I WISH FLATWATER WAS NEXT WEEK! And the week after that...and the week after that...or at least as long as my LIVER could hold out!
