Turkey Shoot 2012

Well another turkey shoot gone down well . Weather fine good food lots of prizes and enough shooters to not go in the hole . Big thanks to every one that showed up and for the help afterwards cleaning up .
   We had 17 shooters , another 10 or 15 would have been nice --- BUT !  10 muzzleloaders and 7 pointy bullet shooters . 5 of the muzzleloaders were from  Baker . The 2 lady shooters were muzzleloaders .
   One lady ( Sunshine ) had a higher overall score than 4 of the pointy bullet shooters . Matter of fact she also won both of the hand gun relays  overall . ( take that guys )
  We had 1 100 yd target , 3 50 yd targets and 3 25 yd targets for rifles and 2 25 yd targets for hand guns and of course the infamous string shoot .
  Turkey winners were Stan Terry , Jim Grey , Gary Langlitz  and Dave Bingner in the pointy bullet class . In the muzzleloader class were Lester , Crockett , Crazy Hawk , Sunshine  and Windy Lee . Over all top score was Gary Langlitz w/ 289 Dave w/275 Stan w/ 273  Sunshine w/ 257 Jim w/ 250 ( beat by a gurl !! )
  " NOTE "  Stan used one of Hubbles guns ---- see scores . You would think Jim would learn one of these years . One of Stans groups ( 5 shots ) was about the size of a dime  50xxx . Garys was a 49xx just a tad bit larger
    Acorn managed to shoot her ramrod ( a 3/8 solid brass one ) --- no score --- but a lot of recoil probly turned her plum around . Never found it either . Anybody finding it you know who it belongs to . Somebody else shot one too but didnt own up to it . I found it after the match was over .
