She did it again

Thanks Brett, She’s had me nervous a few times. She was on a pretty good run during the first match and was steadily talking the whole time. She kept saying after the spotter came up “found the sweet spot”.
BTW she loves to show off that paint job you did on her stock. She had a crowd around it today as she was talking about it and showing it off.

Simply awesome! Nice job Dad! Love seeing young people interested in such a great hobby!
We have seven and our three girls, women now, have always enjoyed hunting and shooting. My wife always wanted to go when she was growing up but her Dad only took the boys. After he saw how much she and our girls enjoy these things he wished he would have taken her.

She's out ta get ya bud!!
She’s focused on shooting a 200 right now. She said that’s her next goal. Remember she’s shooting a 6BR around 2850 so she’s under horse powered compared to the rest of us. That 6BR might turn into a 6BRX during the winter

"You predicted right. Any predictions on some lottery numbers lol."
Haven't had any luck with the lotto numbers.
Wife and I spent many great range hours with both daughters. Pretty much put my shooting on the back burner when the youngest daughter got seriously interested in competing in the late 80's. Shoot in several smallbore matches with her and had a lot of great road trips up and down the east coast and to Camp Perry with her to attend matches.

I'm gonna get a kick out of you two battling it out in X counts.
Have her find another stock.
That’s awesome. I can see this being a family affair. I’m working on building a left handed gun for my wife now. I have the stock a laminated ST-1000 with a basic inlet, stock and trigger. I’m working out trading some chambering jobs and a barrel for a LH Stolle Kodiak and I believe she’ll be hooked too. She shot one match last year but she was running my RH dual port Bat and it was awkward for her to say the least. I guess it’s time to start looking for a good used motor home as it’s 4 hours to the closest mid or long range event from me.
A late friend of mine used to shoot at Camp Perry every year many moons ago. He always said his shooting coach would always tell him as a rule girls/women by their physiognomy were better shots than boys/men. He said this was because the generally have lower blood pressure and shallower respiration.
I can’t afford anymore right now. I’m trying to finish up Jens gun and her stock will be headed to you for some candy! It’s that laminated Shehane ST1000 stock that I got off of @Thud that had the purple and green wood.
I can tell you that I get more nervous watching Kaitlyn shoot than she gets. I get so worked up I have to walk around after she gets done. My wife and daughter both have shown the killer instinct on the range. I’ve blown some big leads and got shot some awful shots because of adrenaline or nerves. They don’t seem to have that same problem.
I wouldn't argue with her either!The 2best reasons I heard about women shooters is 1- they don't have the John Wayne syndrome, 2nd - They Listen.
I taught my ex gilfriend to shoot a long time ago, first 2 rounds were heart shots. I never argued with here again...
Candy Brandywine?
Once you get the stock in your hands you decide. We will be happy with whatever you put on it.
Thanks Andy. She was coaching me the whole time! She kept saying shoot an X daddy! I tried my best to accommodate her.
Send me a picture of it when you get a chance. I remember the stock just not the sure on the exact colors of laminate.
Congrats to your daughter.
