You must be a really good friend to throw the match for Marshal. (Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, know what I mean?)  ;)

Pull that god awful sombrero down over his eyes I saw him with the other day, that should slow him down, or tie his bootlaces together!

Obviously....one performs better with a weapon one is most familiar with.  I think that goes for the type of weapon as well.  There is an obvious thread of truth in what TW is saying...except the real guns thing.   ;)

Most of us here wish we lived your lifestyle and had a gunsafe stuffed with opportunity....but proficiency wise I bet it's it's a booger fer' ya'.  Why don't ya'll try that again with both of you shooting whatever each thinks is his favorite...handicapped of course to match a wheelgun with a really good say...1911!

I am fortunate enough to have a fair start on a collection and my meager performance suffers due to variety.  Life's been too good to you big guy...you are a victim of your own success. 

I hate that for you.

We have not forgotten about it...
Michael and I have a lot of fun beating each other in a competition. And if he beats me, I have a whole lot of fun coming up with excuses.

Last day is ahead of us and I my trigger finger is oiled and ready to squeeze.  I have to remember to clean my glasses this time. There was a spot on them yesterday and I was so sure that spot was a target just to the left of the real one.

And of course, with Michael spotting me, I know he wiill once again suggest a 10 second time penalty because I am a Norwegian. Not my fault that the Vikings robbed and raped his ancestors in Scotland.....

There isn't a rule in SASS that gives all Norwegians a 10-second penalty for inventing lutefisk?

10 second penalty? More like the death penalty.

If there isn't, there should be.  Not to mention one that gives a 15 second handicap to those over 55.   ;D

Easy way to take away Marshall's advantage....right before he goes to the shooting line, Michael needs to ask him how much M'ette has been spending at the dress barn.....  ;D

;D That is the truth...   Michael saw me  coming out of one of the venders tents with the 5 sacks of clothes and said, "Marshal just called me and told me you were buying god only knows what! It looks like he was right."
This is a conversation a few minutes before that....
As I was trying on clothes..(.pettycoats..corsets... gowns.. dresses... skirts blouses... hats...) my phone rings..

Marshal- " Where ya at?"
Me-  "uhhh in Phoenix."
Marshal- "What? I mean..what tent you in."
Me- uuhmm..one that's here at Winter Range. I'll find you in a while.. Bye sweety pie.. I love you~~ ;D *
*click*

Sad part was.. he had he keys to the truck and I needed help with the bags.. so I was pretty much  busted..  :)

Michael and Marshal both shoot well.. Michael shot the match CLEAN!! no misses...
Marshal had 3 P's.. (Procedural.. -10 seconds) and then a couple gun issues ( human errors)  Which pretty much screwed him.. LOL
But they kept the crowd entertained as you all can imagine.
 But I think when the smoke cleared.. Michael was the winner this time.
The Double M challenge has started....
* I'll have to dig up all those pictures of Michael to paste on our targets to give keep Marshals incentive up to practice.. ha ha ha*

Denise and I both shot the last day clean also... and we all had the funnest time. This match is a g oreat one to shoot and we all will definitely be back next year..


~~Oh yeah.. and that God awful sombrero is Tupelo Flash's new hat..  I threatened Marshal with nightmarish things if he ever put it on his head again..  ;D~~
