Thanks Mitch; but with my skill you might effectively pick your nose. :lol: :oops:
I do enjoy tinkering in the off season and usually build at least one for the next season.

I shared this before but the key is to be selective as to when to take a picture. Notice I only stated earlier that I didn't do as well from 15 yards, no pictures though! :oops:

CD, you might fool the new guys, but you aint foolin the rest of us. You just dont "accidentally" launch a 30 yard group like that! Quit being so modest!

Some years back, I read where a guy was at one of the big national shoots and folks were taking turns "guarding" (babysitting) the kid's range so the other parents could go shoot a course.

Guy comes back to find his way young son with an ineradicable group..

When asked how he did that, the kid (tyke) just shrugs and said, "it was easy, I just kept pulling the bad ones and reshooting till they were all good!"

Out of the mouth of babes... AT 30 yards, that will be my story from here on out till I get groups that good!
All we have and call our own, once belonged to someone else, and will again. Our purpose here is not to serve ourselves.

We've been employing that practice for years here, Dave!
Consider my recent post in "Up Nawth"...
Yep, I shot this group at 20 yards, third group of the day.
I 'forgot' to take pictures of some of the groups that followed, though....
