You are more then welcome to come shoot Fly's in Texas.
Surely middle America farmers know something about killing fly's.
We are more then willing to take in our mid America deplorable brothers and sisters.

I have been shooting short range benchrest 6+ years and now have 2 1000 yard
events and 1 600 yard match under my belt. I have not met the 1st perfect com-
petitor( although I'm yet to find a flaw in a couple), as we humans are prone to be
all about me. I'm sure there are good and bad motives on both fronts, people will-
ing to use any tactic to win and people that will(and have) given up their gun so a
new shooter might compete. As good as our intentions are, we make serious errors
in our arguments, such as a beer sitting on a bench with an inserted bolt in a rifle
just inches away. Not a picture for the new shooter training manual. Not that I'm
picking sides, nor have I failed to witness equally ignorant acts perpetrated by
others( which includes myself), but if our love, is for our children and grandchildren
to enjoy a sport that we have so enjoyed, should we not grow up, get along and be
Guardians of a right(not our own) granted us by our forefathers, who were not so
accustomed to rights being given, but earned. May God protect our rights, we aren't
smart enough.

You are right, but the reason all of this has happened its a far worse representation to our youth than a beer can and bolt in a gun on a mans own property. When the IBS and the E board strike down a vote of the shooters passed by a huge margin is wrong and this much worse representation to our youth than a beer can. With the IBS loss of eight clubs in a year sure seem to against all that you have said about promoting sport for our youth...jim

Good bye ibs.....Bottom line from a fairly neutral observation. I have to tell you first of all I spent 27 years in the Army so I know a whole lot about team building and being part of a club. With that said, I am happy to be invited to something new. Something to be built to right the ship of common bonds and alike intrest. ENJOYABLE SHOOTING.AND GOOD OL FASHIONED COMPETITION! I have been a member and shooter at Whitehorse and Harry Jones ranges and have really enjoyed the leadership and camaraderie at both ranges. The only discomfort I have had at anytime is now a mute point. Minus the "divider "I am looking forward to Global Benchrest being "straitlaced" and lots of enjoyable competition . I am fire up and read to send some rounds down range!!!
