Thank You & Congrats...
I know I'm speaking for Ray & myself when I say, first of all, a big "THANK YOU" to Mike & Mary Sherrill and Mark & Jane Meadows for a "heapin' helpin' of Southern Indiana hospitality! Everything was thought of from sleeping accommodations to "killer food" as Bill Calfee would call it. I said I had to eat seconds, being his share, because unfortunately he couldn't make it, but then I found out I didn't eat near his share...they said for a tall, skinny guy, he could really pack away the food at one of these shoots!
Even though we missed seeing him, it was great seeing everyone who could make it! We were glad to see Dennis, Rob & Mike Mullins there, D.J., Danny & Craig, (Pepper 1079, I'm getting ready to send out video copies to those 3, most of it being Craig & Mike Mullins in action), and of course always great to see Steve & Susanne, Mike & Mary, Mark & Jane.
You learn something everywhere you go...this trip I learned about drying beans (like long green beans or whatever). That chef guy, Mark, cooked up some dried beans, potatoes, etc. that have a totally different texture and flavor than you would associate with beans...delicious...and the cabbage & sausage, Jane's meatballs & brownies, Mary's chili, Mark's apple crisp and all the other goodies on the side...m-mm-m-m-m-m! I'm going to have to send for a couple of those recipes, or try to wing it!
CONGRATULATIONS to D.J., Susanne, & Mike on their 1st, 2nd, & 3rd place wins,AWESOME SHOOTING!!!
It didn't take D.J. long to figure out that pistol!
Also CONGRATS to Steve & Ray on their fine 2100+aggs! Awesome shooting by all of you!!!
Susanne, you're tough to beat and currently hold the title of "#1 Woman Calfee XP Pistol Shooter"! Thanks for your advice on the bullet speed...I have a brick left of the red box 1005-04287's and 2 boxes of 04285's, so that's a start. I'll be trying to catch up with you!
We're glad to have finally made it to Mike's "Calfee XP Pistol Tournament". We had a great time and hope to be "regulars" at this big event. Thanks Mike & Mary for all the time and effort you put into this...Mary, the T-shirts are awesome with the copy of Mike's Personal #12 added!
Great Friends, Great Fun, Many Thanks!!!
