No job too large or too small
The New Bremen Fish and
Game Club's second annual Ladies'
Shoot was held June 5. As you
would guess, the gals get to shoot
at whatever strikes their fancy all
day long and I get to burn the burgers. Had plenty of spare time to
take pictures, since I wasn't allowed
to pop a cap. However, I spent the
whole day doing my best lost
puppy impression,- and by the end
of the day after the girls had their
fill of shooting my wife took pity
on me and allowed me to get off a
few rounds late in the afternoon.
Actually I did not mind all that
much, as I was busy helping coach
both of my nieces, who arjfairly
new shooters, and spent mph of
my time making sure they Indled
the firearms safely. As you v[l see
from the accompanying jiotos,
their mothers and my coachis paid
off. They did some pretty Ipressive shooting!
j
My wife, Dori, is he" own
worst critic and certainly nds no
coaching from me, or anyon else,
for'that matter. My sister is Bving

smoke curled around the ball as it
passed by the cards, and she wasn't
missing by much. Yvonne is a relatively new shooter and hasn't had
the practice that Dori gets in, either. Give her some time. She will
be cutting the things in two
shortly.
Catie and Anna got into the act
with my .22 rifle and they both cut
cards from around ten yards from a
rest. My feeble excuses about
shooting the .44 mag. pistol better
than a .22 is not carrying much
weight at this point. And I am not
about to try cutting cards with a
.22, either! If I do it, so what? And
if I can't do it, I will NEVER hear
the end of it! No thanks. I'll pass.
