Sunday, Dec. 16: We only had eight of us “over the hill gang” shooters today. Light snow all the time, not too bad for the Annie Oakleys.

Sunday, Dec. 23: Today we had eight shooters again. The snow let up after a couple of practice rounds. The Annie Oakley’s were shot with fair visibility. Still a lot of fun. Also one more week of practice, then 8 weeks of the real competition, may “Dukes Claybusters” and us old timers all shoot well. Shoot safely and keep your powder dry.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!
