Hoping to see another one in the future since I was unable to shoot in this one. Vision has improved somewhat since the meds. are clearing up the "dry eye" which causes persistent tears thru out the day and hampers vision. BUT, the main issue is now waiting for the cataract surgery time to roll around on Oct 30th for the first eye. (right eye first) That being said I would not be able to participate until that first surgery is behind me and healed sometime in Nov. I suppose.

Fact is, I am missing out on a 300 yd. match this Sat. with Gene @ Rattlesnake. I am barely able to see the 1/16 dot @ 100 yds. but not able to see the 1/8 and the 3/16 dots at 200 and 300 yds.

Get 'R' Done Bill, these are the Golden Years and your depriving yourself. I just had a ball today, shot with the folks the first time this year on the Fred Golden's 600 yard range, I didn't educate anyone, but dam did I have a ball!!

I know what you mean about seeing, me and 600 yards anymore is tough to see and if not for the steel sighter, Id have no idea where to aim on my target, but only time I see a bullet hole to know where I'm highting is if their in the white. Anything in that blue is lost.

Id be there every month, but leave at 3AM to get there by 8am usually 730am aint bad, but after the shoot, that 4 1/2 hour drive back home gets a little dangerous.

So get them eyes taken care of, your missing all the fun!
