Just a heads up everyone. Our Annual "Mike Fink" shoot for July 2017 is now open, so start gathering your Team Partner.

Post your two person Team in this thread. I will consolidate the list.

This is a free shoot which is open to TMA members who are on or off our website,,, and guest non members who are on our website). You will need a shooting partner as this is a two person team shoot.

Those who sign up for our Silhouette Match have a copy of the Mike Fink Target included in their packet -  all others will have to run a copy from our "Target" section here on our website. The target you will use is here; http://traditionalmuzzleloadingassociat ... /MF-TC.pdf

Our Annual Mike Fink Shoot is a free shoot. (Please shoot only one target to turn in, and let the balls hit where they may.

Lets get this rolling;

TMA Sight Rules Apply
Two Person Teams (Be sure to put your screen name on your target)
Mike Fink Match Shot In July
Shot from 25 Yards - Offhand
One Target / 5 Shots - Shoot One Target Only / No "Picked" Multi Target Shooting

Scoring will be - (You Must Break The "Scoring Line Completely" To Receive The Higher Score Value) NOTE: Outer Scoring Lines That Are Thicker Then The Inner Scoring Lines Should Be Viewed As Thinner Lines (from the outside - And In Some Situations From The Inside Line) When Scoring Them... A Ball That Is Half or Better In The Head From The Bottom Line Of The CUP Will Be Scored As A MINUS TEN (-10)...  There May Be Situations With The Scoring That Requires The "Match Scorer" To Make A Judgement Call Of Shot Placement On The Mike Fink Target... A Judgement Call Is Not Open To Debate, Nor Is The Scoring System Of The Mike Fink Target Open For Debate. (ALL MIKE FINK TARGETS ARE SCORED THE SAME)

Two anchors just might win us something in the "Most Pitiful" category.
Well, why don't ya make it innerestin and have the two 'anchors' shoot standing in the middle of the wide Missouri, the buckskins will dry out eventually.

Jimmy Veeeeee, seems to me we have 2 Anchors in the "Most Pitiful" category, and two old Potlickers in the "We swim or drown" category. :rotf
