Tony School

Tony School
Tony Boyer recognizably the most successful benchrest shooter to come the pike has become a school teacher. Shooters that I didn't think would sit still for 5 minutes with anybody trying to sell their thoughts about benchrest are donning their weaser hats and listening to somebody their better. Ha Ha. He is at St Louis right now teaching before the East-West Shoot and after. Good fortune to those shooting the East-West.
I have no proud bones in my body I will be at the Tony BR School next year at the IBS Group Nats at my favorite Nats range St Louis. I see Tony at all the big shoots I go to and can even talk like him after a day or 2. Tony is from Virginia I am from Calif.
As I said in another Thread the Boyers you must understand there is a HOF female connection in that family in Faye that have shot as members of most if not all of the USA World Benchrest Teams. If you don't have it borrow a tape of the Boyer's interview in 1994 at the Super Shoot. I play mine often it is an inspiration.
Tony School started when he retired and had more time to travel. He has taught as far South as Alabama and now in Missouri. Don't know if he will make it out West with the price of gas, he drives to his schools. Some tried to get him to fly in for the recent San Gabriel BR School but it was all talk.
What you get is a day with Tony Boyer. I guarantee you will wear down before he does. Ask him anything about benchrest he will give you an answer. Suggestion, don't wear your pride on your sleeve Tony won't argue with you. He does not read or write on computer benchrest forums. He started as many have with a good smith, Pat McMillan and took his knocks but never let it get to him. He studied benchrest, took notes, started in IBS, went to BR School which he highly recommends, and practiced on his mountain till the Shoots were just a release of all his hard work. Benchrest is hard work.
I remember when I shared a camping lot with Tony at the 1999 Raton Nats. Every morning I got up before sunrise and every morning he was waiting for me. We talked an hour or so before anyone else saw us. I guess we are both morning people. Tony and I would scout deer and elk on the range. Didn't need to talk benchrest that's why we were there.

StephenPerry, a few question.
1. Does he have a schedule of is classes some where?
2. How much does he charge?

I would like to take my son to one of his class's. I live in Nebraska and the closest place would probably be St. Louis, for me.

I have no schedule for Tony. I suggest you call Ron Hoehn he might know. My feeling is he will be at back in St Louis next year at the IBS Group Nats. Probably teach then. Price don't know.
