Might find the competion is a little stiff for first in the last. I got no doubt that I would be a contender for the last place spot unless a blind person was there then it would be a tie.

Heck I wish I was in a better situation to go. Finally had a good day of feeling good after 2 months. Sure would like to try next year though. Might have to give me a handicap and you would have to shoot with my welding helmet on to make things even.
Sounds like a heckuva good time.

As far as I know I have always finished last, and I always have extra rounds.

Only in the race for the worst place.
The best of the worst would have to wear the oldest,darkest and have the most pitting on the lenses. And no auto darkening. That is outright cheating.

Talking

Looks like there will be silver and bronze belt buckles for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd overall.

And almost $1000.00 in cash money being paid out, for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd overall, as well as the top 3 slots for youths, and every individual with a top placing in each event.

Me too buddy, thus my hot pink ammo box with the unicorn stickers. So glad to hear that Dick has reinstated the belt buckles. Much more meaningful than cash that would get spent on crap anyways. Time to practise.
