Maybe not, but it does make you Mr. 21 compared to my one time 20. ;-)

There is supposed to be a cold front coming in Saturday. :roll:

Me too - was hard not to just head on over there - except I woulda been asleep by the second round (just got 4 hours). I'll try again to make it and not be scheduling stuff on overlap. Again - I apologize if I messed up the rotation or anything.

We all had a pretty good time. We had a decent crowd show up, and we all shot together, so we only finished 3 rounds, but a good time was had by all. My 12 gauge is still in the shop, so I borrowed my wife's 20 gauge and I'm not used to it at all. Nice and light, but the wrong size for me, and really set up for a right handed shooter, and I'm a lefty. So I ended up shooting the worst three rounds I've shot in a long time: 8, 10, & 11. But skeet is like fishing..........a bad day fishing is better than a good day at work. I had a ball, and it was good to see everyone again.
