Congratulations MIke. In 2005 I wrote an article about five "Up and Coming" Benchrest shooters (appeared in Feb. 2006). The five shooters were Wayne Campbell, Joe Krupa, Jack Neary, Mike Ratigan, and Mark Buettgen. None were in the Hall of Fame then, but their talent said that they would be there. With the exception of Mark, all have now made it. Mark lets work interfere with shooting too often and has not had many chances to attend the Nationals. He will join the other four one day. For those reading this that don't know what an accomplishment it is to earn 10 or more HOF points, let me invite them to attend a "Nationals" and get 10 first place finishes. Great shooting Mike.
