Since the falling apart of the H&H DR shoot in Washington, I have been thinking how it could be resurrected for 2011. There is a sizable community of DR owners/shooters in Baker City, Oregon. They hold a DR shoot there. Big range. A couple of them are coming up next week to tour the Elmer Keith Museum in the Boise Cabela's, chow down, and do the cigar & Amarula thing in the back yard. It could work, it is barely a two hour drive from the Boise Airport. Rich | |||

Vintagers shoot is over for another year. I shot very good the first day and shot exceptional the second day. Felt very satisfied with my shooting. I was in third place after the first days shoot and finished in 6th place overall. Sure did enjoy it and great to meet friends. I will be uploading pics and video clips. Mike | |||

I had a blast. Thursday wasn't such a great day for me but I had fun. Friday I tripled my Thursday score it was a great day. Always good to see the guys and the shoot is so much fun. I shot the drilling tournament Sat. It's was a lot of fun too. Now I have to wait a year to do it again. No good deed goes unpunished. | |||

Ouch!!!! How'd that happen? Brett DRSS Life Member SCI Life Member NRA Life Member WSF Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick. And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too. May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep. May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip. -Seth Peterson | |||

Bill, Our local club, Central Oregon Shooting Sports in Bend, just put on their second Big Bore/Double Rifle shoot this past month. Unfortunately the person in charge has made it an "by invitation only" event. We had a total of twenty-one shooters. With the current way the shoot is run that was about max. I wish I had a way to post pictures, I'd send one or two along. After the event, the club president and I were talking, and we're going to try to put on at least one and possibly two events per year featuring a walking course and moving targets. At least one of the events would be for big bore/double rifles. If this comes to fruition, I'll post a notice and hopefully some of the good folks here will be interested. | |||

Congrats to Josh Weiner for winning the stopping rifle shoot. Josh set a new course record using a Verney-Carron 500 NE. Josh had also set the previous record in 2008 using a V-C 450-400. Ken DRSS, PP Chapter Life NRA Life SCI Life DSC | |||

Wait till Josh gets his bespoke V-C, he'll be hell on wheeels!! For those who do not know, Josh is a leftie shooting right hand guns. I suppose he has given all a handicap for only so long. Fine job Josh!! Deo Vindice, Don Sons of Confederate Veterans Black Horse Camp #780 | |||

Josh is "hell on wheels" already, and a great guy besides. He also took first in the stalking rifle competition. Congrats again. I did manage to wrest the Alexander Henry Cup [single shot] back from him however. We always have a good time! | |||

Here is some youtubes of the entire course. Though I didn't shoot as well as others I shot better than last year and I had a blast. I can't wait until next year to do it again. Now where can I find a place in New York to practice. Start of the course Final Scoring The Balance of the course No good deed goes unpunished. | |||
