500M Fly Shoot, final for 2019

[Bell]

Looks like we might catch some better conditions this coming Saturday. If we do, look out Aussies! Red headed step children, rented mules, and the blokes down under are in serious trouble!

Fortunately for me the red hair I once had has now turned a nice shade of silver & I'm not a step child....or at least I don't think I am!!

That's OK. I'm gonna need all the excuses I can get. Bring on the soup & wind!

The Soup was for real today..!! We had to drive down to the targets to confirm if the red ink didn’t wash away off the targets... should be fun tomorrow

Mercifuly, todays match is over. The mirage and wind took no prisoners. Congratulations Denny Henderson.

Just about everyone had a real turd target or 2. Denny did a great job avoiding that. Must have been his spotter! Congrats to Donnel for 2nd place and SOTY. Thanks Joe for the prize $ donation. Thanks to Mike, Justin, Tommie & Co for making it all happen. Looking forward to 2020.

So it's true then!!....Everything really is bigger & better in Texas.
That is one hell of a portable oven.

Comparison scores with the Aussies from Brisbane will follow shortly.
