What an outstanding redneck weekend that was. Just got home and got out of the shower. Mike thanks for setting it all up. Chuck, wow, you sure know how to keep a great group of guys fat and happy. It was great to meet you guys. Now I just need a quad. My favorite quote from the weekend was from Randy "People in New York just would not understand." Hope to make it to Strouds.

Feel free to use my pictures Adam. As long as those in them don't mind. I hope they dont. . . I have tagged them already on FB. Nothing too incriminating to post I don't think. Pretty clean fun.

The rifle range went out to 300 yards. We used every yard of it with quite a variety of guns from muzzy's to 22's to handgun's to pre-ww2 long guns but the crowd favorite was the AR platforms that showed up in 8-10 different styles. Dan's 4 wheeler, "Slugger" was used to change paper from 100 yards and out.

Been a great turnout. Great conversations. Unbelievable food. Four wheelers and one dirt bike. Guns. Bows. Trap shooting. Even had fireworks. . . . And this isn't over yet.

Well done fellas. Well done. Has been wonderful.
What an awesome weekend! Other than a couple mishaps and the humidity, it was awesome!
Glad to have met some new faces and some familiar ones TOO.
Beener, you nailed the ribs, brisket and the pork bellies buddy! Outstanding..... You should win several BBQ cook offs in the future. Thanks for keeping us all fed buddy.
Thanks Mike for hosting this thing and all your hard work.

Turned Travis loose with my Black Widow Recurve and the boy had a blast shooting at tennis balls with the judo points,i think he would have shot all night if he could have seen what he was aiming at.lol
I think i may have cost Joe some money,the boy is gonna want a recurve for sure now.
Sorry Joe.lol

Great pics everyone!!!!

I failed to mention Dick(HortonToter) earlier and I apologize! If I forgot any others!

I had a nice convo with Dick while looking at his past TC pics. We all got to hold his euro of Splitter which was very cool, a true old warrior buck taken by a guy who was very deserving!

Great work on the pics Jim! Very much appreciated!!!

Thank you so much to everyone who came out to this year's shoot. The quality of company we keep around these parts is second to none. Thank you to Mike and his father for getting us in on the Mingo Sportsman grounds. As a group, we made a sizable monetary donation to the club above and beyond the base fee. We donated over 600 clay pigeons to their youth shooting program. Dan was kind enough to donate target holders for the rifle range. We left 10x the firewood we found and left the grounds like we were never there. Joe, Mike and I sincerely appreciate everyone's efforts to maintain a respectable presence.

What we experienced and shared in this weekend embodies what Joe and I were trying to create and foster through this website. He and I are both ever so thankful for all of you, and what you bring to this site, as well as to the lives of our members. We are very proud to call you our brothers! We'll see you at Strouds in 81 days!
