 Here's a better photo.
 The noe shot at the bottom of the can broke the line so it goes for a 10 rather than -10.
. The 4 broke the line therefore it's a 6
 20 + 12 = 32 - 10 = 22.
 I think that's right.

I got an email from Tom with a screen shot of a post Nessmuk sent a couple of years ago.  I guess then that, because the one shot hit both the cup and MF's head, the fact that he is dead is immaterial and only the +10 counts.  So it becomes 4 + 6 + 10 + 10 - 10 for a grand score of 20?

I must be getting forgetful in my old age.  I sent my target to the link from several years ago, but it hasn't shown up, so here it is.  Not as good as my May target, but I'll take what I can get!

I see now that the ball in the 4 ring actually CUT the 6 ring so it's 2 x 6 + 2 x 10 - 10 for 22.  Whew, my brains is dazzled!  I received a nice email from Nopowder, explaining the error of my thinking.  I'm all set until the next time...  :Doh!

Well, Friends, I'm back from 2 months in the Adirondack Mountains of NY. Another Vacation of too much rain and cool weather. Anyone want to buy a Lakefront seasonal cabin in upstate NY, PM me.
It's been 98F everyday since I got back, quite a change.

Here are my targets for July.

BTW Kubs score is 22 for Mike Fink.
mine is 24, i see I forgot to write it.
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.

You were doing really well until you domed the dude, Kev. Nice shooting!

I am hoping to get out there today and get it done.
