Are you up to a Revolutionary sized personal challenge?

[The Miner '49er]

Well, I'm 0 for 7.  It took Nessmuk eight attempts, so maybe next time, or #9, or maybe #10 will do it. If I don't succeed in ten tries, I think I'll throw in the towel.  [ Invalid Attachment ]

  It looks like a teensie shift of the rear sight to the right would put you on!  That is an impressive target, shooting cold and offhand.  I need to get out and make another try.  Also to shoot the September target(s).

Thanks, WH. I agree that a sight shift would help, some, but how do I cure the yips that happen every time I draw down on that shingle? I hope you shoot the Sept targets, but fair warning, the King's X will drive you crazy. 

[Nessmuk]

The "Yips"? Is that what it's called? The tiny little terrors you feel when you sight down the barrel and and realize this is the one that really counts?
I still get those. BTW, I'm still trying with my .32.  12 attempts to date and only hit paper twice.  By the way, does this challenge have an expiration date?

[The Miner '49er]

Yes, the challenge ends on the "expiration" of the shooter!  YMMV.

Hey, did you catch the comment made by No Powder in The Campfire section in which he thanks his B-day well-wishers? If you read it carefully, and I missed it the first time, he hit the 100 yard mini shingle, the "postage stamp" a second time! Yep, lightning might not strike twice in the same place, but No Powder does! As the late, great Gunny used to say, "Outstanding!" He received another, larger, Alex Hamilton portrait for his achievement. Can anybody else, Nessmuk perhaps, catch up to him?     . I know that Winter Hawk is still trying, and so am I, but anyone else got the grit to try?
