Jim, I thought it was a great day, today. Good fellowship, good food, and good DWJ shooting.

It was really nice to see everyone how could make it to the shoot.

Keith,

Thank you very much for allowing us to help you dispatch those Dangerous Jugs. It was great chatting and shooting with all of you again.

One of my aspirations is to become a Bubba!

What, no pics? Wish I could have been there. Our "Extrication Day" was rather disappointing and I really would have been shooting instead of dealing with fake patients.

Thanks again to Keith for a great time! Andy, you wuz a Bubba all along and did not know it! Welcome!!
We had a good learning experience, coconuts are OK, but they are not nearly as violent as the watermelons!! There is no experience as exciting as nailing a charging melon and splattering it all over the landscape! Now, maybe if we use a little Tannerite with the coconuts next time.....Hmnn.

Thank you Keith, I am humbled.

I am at a loss for words.

Does this mean I can now order a shirt and ballcap with the "Bubba" logo on it?

Gotta make a new "smiley"....a Sasquatch doing backflips!

If I can get Michael and Dan to develop a 600 Carnivore then we can really rupture something!

Have you killed a DWJ with the cannon yet?
Time for a bubba works project. Bust out the tig welder, rebar and 4" steel square plates.

Take off te top and fill it with pea size rock or chain or buck shot.

Yes, on commited suicide and jumped in front of the shot.

Stick welding is better for this.

rebar and 4" steel square plates.
Boomie, do you have ANY IDEA how much they would weigh? They would exceed the weight limit for most of the Bubbas old

I do use them in the mortar, fill them with concrete, if you can find them you can shoot them again.

Whompers are guns that WILL kick the cr#p out of you.

eg: any of the .550s, very hotly loaded .505, and up. you should have shot many of these. I would think that youare gettin close to full membership, with your 600 OK, amd shooting the 4 bore. etc.

Being a full memberber of the "Whopper Club" probably shows a lackl of good judgment. When you say. "I can/can I, shoot that" lol
