Targets From Friday

     I don't want to brag -- really, I don't.  So I'm not. I think the guy in the bay to my left was working on weak-hand drills.  Even if not, his target is a cut above the usual "Swiss cheese."
     Still, it's undeniably gratifying.  Seven yards, as usual.

    As you were packing up, did you give him a hard stare and say "A word to the Wise. Don't *EVER* forget anniversaries, birthdays, or Valentine's Day." and then give him a sweet smile and wish him a good day?

    No? :)

    NJT: who says you're not?

    Bradley: he did not. Usually if I have a target up first, I don't get much unsolicited advice unless I'm doing something goofy. "Bifocal stance," with my head titled back so I can see the front sight through the near-vision part of my glasses lens, sometimes get comments
    Tam says the people in the gun store talk about my shooting -- but remember, I am just standing and shooting. I'm not doing any one-hand work or difficult drills ("dot torture," anyone?)

    David: each one of those three flyers is at the start of a magazine through my .38 SA Witness. I think I am anticipating.

    All: Thanks for the compliments! Tam and Shootin' Buddy and my pal the Data Viking have been a good influence, I think.

    Roberta: The pancreas mention was because surgeons I know don't ever want to touch it. Life goes all to pieces in a hurry if you touch the pancreas. I don't want to get shot there!

    It's actually a Witness Compact.
