I was there in Oak Ridge in Aug, 2007 when Waterdog, Larry Isenhour broke the 600 yard small group IBS record. 0.943 inch for 5 shots. I had went by Somerset , Ky and spent Friday night with George and took george to his first 600 yard match. He brought home a piece of wood that day with his Savage 6.5 x 284. It had a John Deere green stock. I was in the pits when George shot his group that got him recognized. Everyone had finished shooting but George. He was shooting slow and his shots were falling in the ten ring. Everyone in the pits gathered around George's target and with each successive shot a cheer went up and George kept them all in the 10 ring. Only time I every witnessed all the guys in the pit cheering for a competitor.
Pictured are mangy nationals winners and record holders. from left to right the ones I recognize. Sam Samuel Hall , Larry Isenhour, george Coleman, Jerry Sherratt, and standing rangemaster, James Phillips

1 reason Big G is my HERO...
He can shoot with the best of'em...
First match this country bumpkin went was Oak Ridge. Voldoc and I let James Phillilps talk us into coming. I looked at the relay assignments and saw that there was one bench between me and shooter of the year Joel Kendrick. I got very nervous but everyone was super nice to us
 
I don't know Mr. Isenhour but looking at the picture makes me feel like I should. We have shot a lot of RFBR matches off of those benches at Oak Ridge. Good friends and times there.
