2500

Congratulations Jon on your 2500. They don't come around often. Also congratulations to Richard Gorham for building such a great rifle. The Gorham made rifles may have raised in value.

This Was A Daytime/Outdoor Tournament !!!! " Killer" Shootin Jon!!! Smitty
 
Jon McKinney shot an incredible target folks. Simply amazing. Congrats Jon! I can imagine, like you said, that your trigger finger felt like it was 800 pounds trying to shoot that last bull. The food was great the company was great and the competition was fierce. I had a great time and so did James. (Kirk the kids had fun at Holiday World too, but James and I were dragging when we had to wait 4 more hours after the tournament to make our 4.5 hour trek home). I wish James Pappas would have been there to hear the rest of the story about Big Tool and Pudge. He would have liked the chicken head shoot off thing. In the words of a famous comedian..."now that was funny right there". Gary Ball has a fine range, he and his wife provided the finest of food, and I'll be back again someday.

Jon,

Were you sharing equipment with Kirk or do you have a Gorham rifle too. I heard you bought a Calfee rifle from Kirk.

I killed Granny's favorite rooster with a stale HI-HO cracker as he was settlin' in for the night. One of those freak incidents indeed. I can still remember watching that cracker fly like a frisbee and Granny whoopin' me till he quit floppin'. For you city folk that's a long time.

We hit one every now and then with a "water pipe/cherry bomb/walnut" cannon that my cousin screwed together but never killed any. We hit a banty rooster one evening and he flew out of sight over the hill and took up with a neighbor about two miles away...looked like a big fat pheasant as he flew. Prolly had to be there to find this funny, but he was off balance and if you know chickens you know that their tail feathers spread when they teeter on a limb....the walnut hit him square in the patooty just as his patooty was presented.... or "vulnerable" if you will. Even my aunt, "Mean Martha" got a kick out of that one. She was there for the sole purpose of when the cannon blew up and killed one of us she could say "told you so". She did, however, get the cherry bombs from her draft dodging boyfriend...as Granny so fondly referenced.

Wilbur, some of us city boys know that when you have a wounded chicken its time to turn the dogs loose. They make short work out of them floppin chickens. We made those "water pipe/ black cat/marble" pistols. They weren't as big as your cannon, I would guess about they were about 45 cal. Those things would probably be against the law now.

Oh, now I get it. B.T. Johnson has one of them "night shoot trigger pull rifles" that shoot them big scores at night shoots. I heard there was a gunsmith back east making those rifles. We don't have much call for that type of rifle in Texas.
 
Congrats Big John on the 2500.
Are you bringing the cornhole boards to St.Louise?? I can see it now cornhole and beer in the hotel parkinglot:D
 
"ole big wrist"

Friends, Old big tool Johnson is called big wrist over too SE Missouri & some say long foot Johnstone down around south Ind. is the same somebody. He, or they show can shoot, considering they or he don't own a gun by a genuine extra famous gunsmith.
