Glad ya'll had a good time. Someday work permitting the wife and I will show up for one of these shoots and get some free lessons. Hope everyone shot over their head. Did AndyC run a 25 round?

When I got home I discovered that I was using the wrong chokes. So, I will blame Barefta for that ;). Thanks Andy for the training. He is super nice guy and an excellent gun instructor.

Here are few more pics of hit birds. It's difficult to tell, though. I had to enlarge each image to look for broken birds. Beiruty smoked some birds I just couldn't find a pic where I hit the shutter release at the right moment. I asked everyone to call out when they pulled the trigger :biggrinjester:

That's why I emphasize foot-position, so we don't have to bend around like pretzels - but I guess you Texans are tough after all :cheers2:
My mind tells me to face the right direction and use proper foot placement, but my body must be stronger than my mind. "rlol" My score tells it well. When I enlarged this photo I couldn't believe it when I saw the broken bird.

Andy caught that shot of me on station 8. It was funny because my daughter asked what happened to the bird. Probably my best shot of the day, it just seemed to go POOF. The whole thing just disappeared.

The only reason I beat Andy twice was because he was using his .410 on those rounds and even then it was only by one. He beat me the round he used his 12ga.

We will have to do it again sometime soon. Maybe next month. If enough show up we might get two groups going.

I just went to show H-dub the pictures on her iPad and noticed something odd. Those last two pictures in landscape format don't show the entire image on he iPad. Neither I nor JMinn1 are in the pictures, but we are when viewed from my computer. Anyone know why that would be?

Maybe the view settings??? I don't have an Ipad. I'm still trying to reconcile 35mm format with digital formats which never match when printing them.
