Here is a video of me shooting at the competition

Once again, it is amazing how easy it is to miss at even close ranges under a competion format. I know for me a lot of this was nerves having only done this one other time. But even some of the good shooters miss occasionally- which gives me hope! On this attached video, I actually miss three targets. (If you watch you will see me shake my head in frustration at one point after my third miss).
The format on this stage was to shoot 10 rounds from the rifle, alternating targets. Then put the rifle down and shoot 5 shots each from both revolvers, again alternating targets. Then load the empty shotgun and knock the 4 targets down. With a double barrel shotgun, that means load both barrels, shoot two targets, unload the spent shells and reload new shells, and shoot the other two targets.
Hope you enjoy this! :)
Oh, and coming soon, a tribute posting that is going to be very sentamental and quite a bit sappy. It will have nothing to do with SASS or any goofy stuff. But the 20th rememberence of my mom's passing is coming up and I will be posting a tribute to her in time to honor her passing in a few weeks...
Talk soon! MM

  1. Don't worry about being sappy--what good sons say about their dear moms is sacred.

    Love ya!

  2. Thanks Carmen. When my grandmother came and lived with us, she gave me a whole bunch of old pictures of my mom. I am going to look for some this weekend so I can scan and post them in time.
