Will turn 70 later this year.
Don't feel a day older than when I was 21, mentally; 31, physically.
But sometimes I forget my real age, and that's when I get in trouble ;D

Some of these stories fit me. I'll be 63 next month, but awhile back, I was stopped for smoking the tires across an intersection in town with my slightly built Mustang. The officer that stopped me took one look at me and my license and said "funny, you don't look 16". To tell the truth, I did feel like it though at the time.
well you young pucks, I have looked at all the post and unless I missed someone I got you all beat,

Joe Salt said:I'm 69 I'd be 70 but I was sick a year!I can still put my 85 lb. H.G. on my shoulder and walk to the Benches, When I can't do that any longer, I guess its L.G. for Both days.
Joe Salt
Well Joe, to be able to do that at your age is no small accomplishment. I am quite sure you will be in the shooting sports for many years to come!
I'm a very young Grand Senior. I'll be 70 in November.

Born 1977, so been blessed with 38 yrs so far. Most of which I've been shooting in one form or another.
I believe a remember archery first. My mother and father would help hold the bow back for a while.
Finally growing into the smallest bows available to me was a huge step.
Started shooting the .22 and then pop cans out of the air with a red rider not long after. When I turned 15 I bought my first rifle, and then I began tinkering with the guns and ammo. I was lucky to have a friend who's father was a competitive shooter.
During my twenties and early thirties I had the drive but, recently finding this site has really helped with the learning curve.
The best part! My wife and eldest boys have been joining me in the quest lately. Not to mention we have a 2 month old who is most likely to follow as well.
I can't express how thankful I am for all the knowledge shared here.

Lbart said:I won’t tell you how old the individual members of Team Berger are but 5 of the 6 are Grand Seniors (most well on their way to Super Grand Senior status) and the youngster is a senior (he gets to carry the heavy stuff
Before you ask “Super Grand Senior†is what I call shooters 80 and over.
Good for you guys to be "Super Grand Seniors" and still shoot as good as you guys do.
I turned 35 this year.
