[DHuffman]

Between our relay two 1000 yard targets. The rain and hail relay where the target crew earned the money.
They did an outstanding job in brutal conditions.

I can just see the next PRS match.....Tom will have a stage where the shooters will have to shoot off of the top of the huge pile of aluminum carnage from all of the wrecked canopies!!

I couldn't make last years match for many reasons but was fortunate to compete this year. I want to thank Tommy and Sara from the bottom of my heart for the fantastic match they put on. They are two of the nicest people you would ever want to meet. Congrads to all the people that made this match one never to forget. I'm alreafy counting the days until I come back and shoot Rendevous 3.0. It's great to shoot against other shooters of this caliber. God speed to all of you and hope to see you next year.

Way cool to all winners it’s a grind for sure. Always extra exciting when . In regard to Dave Huffman on a more personal level knowing what his goals where and planning to set those goal and pulling it all together was the best nice work Huffman you had me pumped up Lol..

Was a pleasure to meet and shoot with you Ronnie.
While Tod Soeby stepped up and started the tip fund for the target crew when the clouds were dumping rain and hail it was Ronnie who laid down some hard cash on Tom E's spot on the firing line and challenged the rest of us to pony up!

Nice work to you both! The crew earned it all weekend.

 

[Tonto]

Great time, great match, great folks! Thanks Tom E, Sara and the vapor trail crew for hosting another magnificent event. Congratulations to Sally for her back to back wins! Special shout out to the Hornady team ( Chad, Craig and Trampus) Jim & Sally stepping up with the extra pop ups after the Thursday night allstate mayhem event. Congrats to the top 14. Great shooting!. Can't wait til next year.

 

[MOTRAZOK]

Hey Ronnie sounds like you've taken me in the RW&B group. I'd be proud to be there shooting with some of the best

 

[Mulligan]

It is kinda fun to ponder next years rendezvous and flesh out the list of things I want to fix/change/improve upon before next June. Getting spanked in the Top 14 is a bit of a motivator!!!

Just 50 weeks till we do it all again.

[DHuffman]

A big thanks to The Hunter's Pointe range and the SD shooters there.

Humboldt & Elbow Lake are my two close ranges @ 400 miles to either LOL

I don't know how you would measure the value of all the friends made shooting that a guy would have never crossed paths with otherwise.

 

[Drewel]

I finally figured out @DHuffman Secret to success. Looks like his pit crew took her cut off the top!!!

Severely under compensated for all she's put up with.

Thanks for posting that.

Vapor Trail has a extensive staff, so I called in our photo shop gal, Amanda Burke Walker in the wee hours this morning to work on a picture of David Kieffer , I wanted him to be able to share this pic with his friends and all the glory that goes with it.
David won the 8 target score agg at a 1000 yds with a 381 score.

Nice job keeping it in the center!

Glad you and Terry Latsha made the trip you both are always welcome at the valley.View attachment 1348435
