How old are you?

I'm one of those Codgers born in the 1st half of the last century. I just beat throat cancer and had the BEST day at the range I can ever remember, thanks to the many tips I've picked up here. It isn't your age its your attitude :)

Ray I thought I told you I have a Son that's 46, I'm not deaf I just have selective hearing! I have socks older than you. I've been shooting 1000 yard for over 40 years. You weren't even a twinkle in your old man's eye then.

Hearing aid thing wasn't a direct jab at you, But it is very common at the range.. I think the most common word used throughout the weekend is "What".. Least you guys still have your eye sight, That is what matters in this sport right?

To answer the Q........Too doggone old but all in all, not a bad ride so far. Turning 69 in Dec.

I can't seem to turn my pistol scores around, veer away from my race to the bottom, so am eyeing the FOG game of BR (Fat Old Guy). I ain't too porky but a redux in 15lbs would be a boost.

The learning curve and the info available here as has been mentioned is a great resource. A really great board you don't get chewed on for being less knowledgeable than "the regulars". Very nice indeed.

I was going to do something important today, now what was it? Where are my keys, wallet, glasses and hmmm, what was I going to do?????? ;-))

Joe, I wouldn't have guessed you had 34 yrs on me.. I will say though, I could make a killing selling hearing aids at these clubs.. lol

Hmm. At Williamsport, the loudspeakers were turned up to 11. ;D 68 going on 39 here and my hearing was lost at rock concerts, car plants, steel mills and various other work venues. Shooting without muffs back in the day didn't have any effect. ::) ::)
 
Ray my eyes are getting pretty bad, that's got to be why I always have one shot out!
hogpatrol is that why 8 of use got DQ at the World Open! I wish there were more speaker.

Rock concerts! Yup! Had to get as close to the stage as possible. Right in front of those 20 ft tall speakers.😳 Ah. The seventies!

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.

Good grief! Erik I am old enough to be your grandfather. How many points are you going to spot me at the FCN's? 35 for MRN's and another 35 for the LRN's sounds about right!

I don't know Joe. Maybe if they had it piped in to your headsets you guys wouldn't have gaffed up? ;D

I was hoping you would spot me the points... You know, because of your experience and all! ;)
