Happy News And Such!
« on: August 21, 2011, 09:35:23 AM »
Those of you that are on Facebook will have seen this on Tarran Butler's page:

Quote
Jessie Harrison Wins Open, Limited & Steel Master at the 30th and last Steel Challenge World Championship to be held here in California. This is the Last time the best shooters on earth will be here & they will all be at the Hyatt Hotel in Valencia around noon tomorrow, Hope you can come by, there will be great deals on prize guns & gear say Hi to Rob(TGO) Leatham, Dave Sevigny, Max Michel, JJ(TOP SHOT) Recaza,Jerry

The most obvious is the lovely photo I have copied for your enjoyment below:



The more important is in the quote:  California is losing a major shooting event!

I think it was discussed here about Ca. losing its ride for this event. Seems the anti-gun state will be losing another major draw.

However, I wish I could be there for the festivities....Perhaps in another more firearm "friendly" state,....this can become a reality.

It's slow, but it's happening.
NY lost their signature competition as well.

Perhaps Florida? Georgia? Texas? Carolinas? Hell even the show me state for logistics can do better than NY or Ca.

The 2012 Steel Challenge is in Florida next year.... good location...opposite coast and way more gun-friendly.

I was being a wise azz, I was referring to the Creedmore matches that became Camp Perry around 1880.
Like I said, a slow process.

<squinting>  My eyes aren't what they used to be

I would imagine only Californians are lamenting this "last" match.  The rest of us are rejoicing.   Stick it, California.

Alf, I did you a favor by leaving it small.  At your age she would kill you  ;)  However, if you wish to risk it you can go check out Mr. Butler's page.
