 not sure how many attempts I've made. 6 or 8 I think
 I use a 28"x 36" white poster board with a black shingle in the center and just record pertinent info next to each shot with a sharpie for posterity.
 I find it helpful having every shot on the same board.   

 I'm planning on a session Friday or sat or Sunday  , 1 of those days at least. 
 I'll post a pic of my current progress .
 by the way I would be quite impressed by anyone hitting that speck of a target at 100 yds.  cold bore. which I plan to do!  :bl th up

good luck shooters

I'm always flirting with the outside edges, so what would impress me, is to put one inside of that postage stamp. Then we would think about retirement like you talked about  :luff: Just kidding. I'd like to do some more polluting before hanging it up.

I'll tell you this, if hitting a playing card sized target a 100 yards away, using a prb launched from a muzzleloader, shooting with iron sights, and doing it offhand from a cold bore, and yet another time repeating that feat is considered UNimpressive, I'd like to hear what more a guy could do to make it impressive.  :bow :bow :bow

Don't know how many times I've tried. I do know this, 2 hits out of however many times I've tried is not impressive at all.

As I recall, you "jined da boys" on attempt #8, so it really has been a dry spell since then for you. If I ever find that pot of gold 100 yards downrange  ;banghead;, right then and there I'm going to retire while I'm at the top of my game. There won't be any of that "I'll try for another" for me.  :stooges:

I've been trying for a repeat for months!! my score is @24 misses, 1 hit. I guess lightning really doesn't strike twice.  :Doh!

Only if you feel a need to confess to Captain Morgan. I was merely wondering how many attempts it takes us mere mortals to do it. To me that makes the one 'n done that our ancestors accomplished all the more impressive.

I’m 0 for 4.
Should I be posting my misses?

Scoreboard time. AFAIK Winter Hawk, KDubs, Salty, and yours truly are the only guys trying to join Morgan's band of sharp eyed shooters. I'm 0 for 8. What's your tally to date, boys?
