JULY POSTAL SHOOT AND JUNE RESULTS

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.

Shooters post your targets on this Thread and Good Luck!

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.
I'm  not  H/C or P/C or even a particularly  good shot but I have a hell of a good time!

Dedicated to the TMA.

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.....
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest Up to God.
