Couple of guys at our range were in shorts today!
I'm too old for that stuff, still wearing a down vest , Long undershirt and a flannel jack short!
We had winds gusting to 30KPH today as well, whole bunch of fun!

I am 63, and the other fellow in a tee shirt is 58, so it was our younger members shooting in tee shirts. Our oldest shooter yesterday is in his 80s, and he had a sweater on. We all showed up with winter gear but after the first round, everyone had shed a layer. And since we missed the first part of January, the first clean rounds of the year were shot yesterday.
