Kevin,
Now you're shooting like I did at the rendezvous. 
Pretty sad day when I get more points in archery than I did in rifle. :Doh!
I remember one fine day in 2000 when I won the match without ever firing a shot.  I was the only one to show up.
Are they still doing an annual aggregate and awarding top shooter of the year?
Something like that kind of helps to make people show up more regularly.
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest Up to God.

No, no top shooter award that I've seen.
 Not a bad idea I suppose.
 I've noticed a drop off over the last few shoots of members coming and shooting.
 Not sure why that is but I do have some suspicions I'll keep to myself for now

My "horn rehab project" is complete: I found a buyer for the horn without re-working it!!!    :toast  It will be nice to be out in the shop this weekend without wondering what to do with it.
