shooters, this month we'll be shooting the standard target AND the notorius MIKE FINK!
If you haven't had the displeasure of shooting Mike, make sure you read the Target carefully. It's a B%&*#h.

Apologies for the late posting. My Canine Companion of almost 17 years passed from kidney failure on July 1st and I had to attend to his final needs.

My sympathies for losing your friend. 17 years is a long time.  The oldest I've had a dog achieve was my old lead dog, who we had to put down after 14 years.

You posted the same target twice.  I think you wanted to link to the Mike Fink one perhaps?  I'll make a real effort to get to the range this month and wring out the Shenandoah rifle some more.  This past month was a doozie with dental and vet appointments, plus other "stuff" getting in the way.

Once I made a life size "Mike Fink" with a styrofoam head, complete with a long dark wig.
I also cut a cavity in Mike's head and filled it with canned tomatoes, just waiting for someone to shoot a bit low.
I thought that would be just splendid if someone did.
Sorry to say, it was for naught.  Everyone hit the tin can balanced on his head or missed altogether.  I shot last with my Bess and darn, I missed it altogether myself.
Oh well, the best laid plans of mice and men, etc.....
