... could ... take about 4 hours before I was burnt out.

I understand completely. Four hours is about my limit, too. It sucks to get old.

Oh, wait. You were talking about shooting? Never mind...

 

[TheRealT-Dawg]

[Tejano Scott]

Hey Aaron when I get a pistol you need to go shootng with me and give me pointers. I Dont want to look too douchey at Plus1s class.

I'm not good a pointers. You'll have to talk to someone that can shoot.

it'll take more than just shooting a pistol well… but Chris can help you with the marksmanship part.

I'll second that. I went to the TGF Shoot at Hotwells on Sunday and only shot two rounds of Skeet and was done. Between being outside and the shooting and the all day Saturday I was just burnt out. I did play a little with my cameras before heading out. Even had one of the range officers there get on my case about "Rapid Firing" and even during one of their ceasefire target changes to boot. Gotta love 8fps still cameras.

Same here. I went to a bullseye match on Sunday. Anyone who's shot that discipline outdoors knows that it's basically a 1-kilometer fun run with occasional pauses to fire 10 shots at a time. (You have to walk downrange, 25 or 50 yards, after every 10 rounds to do scoring.) I could have wrung the sweat out of my clothes by the end of the day and I don't think I'll be rested up till tomorrow.

where's the pics?

 

[Tejano Scott]

I didn't get any pics. Jared got a few stills off his gopro, but nothing insane. Benenglish is our #1 hope for Range Day pics this month. I will try and start doing better with pics. It's difficult to stick 1 person with this responsibility since it requires them to keep their camera at the ready and their shooting to a minimum. We duffed getting a group shot this weekend, which is totally my fault. We will do better. Pics = free advertising for our group and a great way to show everyone the good times they are missing if they don't attend.

 

[Sugar Land]

So where are the pics?

 

[AaronP220]

I know I threw some gnarly W-side gang signs.

 

[TundraWookiee]

Scott has all of mine if he wants to put them up or I can try. As usual, I was swamped at work all day yesterday. I know its a lame excuse but we're understaffed and I have an hour commute to and from work which makes for a long day. My dog got injured on Sunday and I've been with him at the vet all morning today but I will get the pics from Tac I and range day up as soon as I can.
