First shot of the Day?!
« on: April 22, 2009, 08:52:00 PM »
Anybody remember way back when there was a 1st shot of the day thread???
I forget who would pick the target and the shot but it was kinda fun.
Whatever happened to that????

It was kinda fun.
Sometimes it was a 3 shot group, sometimes it was just 1 shot.
NO warm up! Just walk out and shoot at a certain yardage and a certain position(sitting, standing, kneeling...etc)
You had to post pics of your shot/group and it was on the honor system.
Prize...bragging rights until the next match.
Anybody else remember that????
I did it a few times(I never won, I think I was robbed  :)  ) when I was stationed in Korea...it gave me something to look forward to, instead of just coming home.  :)

Couldn't find a plastic bottle, so I scared a Coke can instead. Keep this going!   :thumbsup:

Well I lost this round. I think I'll change my profession to fence builder, cuz I built a pretty nice corral around the Coke can before I finally hit it. Yeee hawww!!!!!
