Thanks a ton guys......

I do have to give credit to a few other people, for my recent success... To Bill, "That Texan" on this site, who took me to shoot the Vintager's Cup the week before and let me use his 1883 Holland and Holland to shoot my best score ever in sporting clays, if there was a rookie class, I would have won it... but look at what Bill did there also....

Bill won most of the event...
High Overall for the main event
1st place in 5 stand
1st place in the 2 man flurry
1st place in the one man flurry
(shot 75 targets out of 100 thrown in a
4 minute period with a side by side shotgun,
and me as his reloader emeritus)
and I think he won another event...

Bill also won the Side by Side for the AA class at the Browning/Briley this past weekend..along with coaching me, and letting my use his favorite Perazzi for the main event, and his backup gun anytime I wanted, along with ammo and you name it...

THANKS BILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks to the Old Geezers, John, Foy, Danny, Nyal and a few others for giving me tips and being a great bunch of guys... OOOH-Rahhh

To my friends Glenn and Jimmy, who have coached me, and encouraged me, and kept me on track, I thank them also..

There were a lot of people who also new this was my first formal NSCA tournament, and helped this newbie have a good time, and also
win my first World Title... D class or Master didn't matter, I'm stoked... and am glad to have friends here in Houston, and friends online like you to share it with...

470CapstickA2, glad you could make it up here to one of the "Band of Bubbas" shoots. Very glad you brought your new pride and joy with you. That 475NE is a very sweet shooting SxS.
