[thunderpout]

Beeker... workin a 14 er tonite... just taking off finally.   Sorry it took me so long to get back to ya... just got ahold the guy who was putting the squad together this evening, we have you down with us if you havent registered yet.  We have four so far, Im not sure how big the squads are going to be, so we may have more room.   we're shooting with Tad Larsen and Kevin Stasson, who are A & B class shooters...two good guys Ive shot with in the past that wont give ya too much crap...  I was going to shoot 20g on Saturday, but am only shooting Sundays Wild Marsh Cup.... looks like decent weather... Tad and I are both bringing our wheelers.  should be fun... they sure are allowing alot of time for each 100, like 3 hours...   Im bringing a hammok!

[beeker]

well that answers my PM to ya. I'm thinking I may be only to make the prelim this.

[beeker]

I'm back in for sunday.. so I'll see you there around 8ish... the wife had me down for shooting on sunday so why argue with her.

[thunderpout]

Had fun shooting the Cup with ya Beeker...  Hey Cody, are you guys getting out this weekend for league, or are ya going to get out during the week?  Let me know... I may start shooting the 20g SxS to get used to it here before fall, and may shoot it in the last couple shoots coming up in August....

[Cody Gruchow]

i have no idea, i have to talk to mitch, we have both been really busy lately but if we get out this week it will probably be saturday morning

[beeker]

those were some tournament grade targets they were tossing around. had a beautiful day for it. too bad you had that sr. sneak in there, I thought forsure you had a punch on the red course.

[thunderpout]

Yep... good targets!   I thought we were having a bad day on the 2nd round there, but most everyone dropped a bunch of targets... salvaging a punch on that would have been more than nice...

[beeker]

the scores are posted and the red course kicked most everyones butt. 

[Cody Gruchow]

greg, mitch and myslef made it to wild marsh on saturday. i started out on the blue course horribly  3 out of 10...i was starting to get really frusterated and mad, because there my kind of shots and i dropped the ball. but after i calmed down and shook the rust off, i ran the next 3 stations. i ended the blue course with a 37, not very good in my opinion. then came the green course. the first station was horrible i killed the rabbit every time but couldnt figure out what i was doing wrong for the long shot. then i ran most of that course and ended the green course with a 43. so my final score was 80!!! finally broke the mark after being so close. mitch ended his score with a 74. so we both did pretty well.

[thunderpout]

Good going guys.   Yeah, the two courses werent that bad, I think we all could have done better... I think ya just expect more out of ourselves as the season goes on, and the years go by... thought about re-shooting.... nah...

[thunderpout]

Cody... It looks like Im gonna be tied up at the end of the month so Im thinking about getting our last two rounds in either this Sunday or the weekend after... Im at the Game Fair this Saturday, otherwise Id go then... when are you guys thinking on getting out?

[Cody Gruchow]

next weekend should work out just fine. ill let mitch know. next saturday, i work on sundays...

[thunderpout]

Pat and Joe are going tomorrow morning, But Im at the Game Fair again Saturday, so I'll shoot with you guys next weekend.... I told Pat to get us his scouting report.

[Cody Gruchow]

mitch has a wedding he has to go to this saturday i guess..and i have to help my dad move into his new house, i forgot about that until yesterady when he called to remind me. the following weekend i cant, so we have to aim for the end of august. sorry greg ive been busyer than normal this year.

[thunderpout]

Hey Beeker... Havent talked to ya in a while... Youre shooting the state tourney this weekend I take it.... I aint shooting it for the first time since I started ten years ago, dont know if i kind of got burned out some from shooting in two leagues on top of the tourneys or if Im just ready for the bird hunting to begin....(or both?)    Just didnt get amped up for state like I usually do,  Im sure i'll be fast out of the gates next year...

[thunderpout]

Beeker... how was the state shoot down at Caribou?  Dang... the one time I dont go and the weather is beautiful!   Cody... I hit Wild Marsh on Sunday to get my banquet/shoot tickets, and shot my 20g SxS for the first time this year... got a 23/25 on 5-stand and a 20/25 on skeet... should've been shooting that thing all year.   Saw that you guys hadnt gotten yer rounds in yet, not to put any pressure on you guys, BUT..... we're only two points out of third place, and tied with another team for fourth... its up to you two to propel us into fame and fortune!   I think we have another week to shoot.  If you guys are going this weekend let me know, I may re-shoot my 38...

[Cody Gruchow]

im taking sunday off of work so i can go. so what score should i aim for then? does being 3rd get us anything?? im aiming for another 80 or higher

[thunderpout]

Cody... after you hit the that 80% mark, ya have to go for the perfect score!   Just pulling your leg... we can only try to do the best we can, right? (ok, a 85-90 would be sweet ) They used to give out trophies for 1st -3rd but I think it may be only 1st and 2nd now, cant remember for sure... but were close enough to 2nd so anything can happen! 

[Cody Gruchow]

well mitch really caught up to me last time, and i jumped up alot. i have been shooting alot so i hope to crack the 85 mark. 2nd would be sweet!

[thunderpout]

We have to get you guys on some tournament targets next year... some of that stuff under yer belts and team Boomstix could be DANGEROUS!   That and talking (bribe? ) Beeker into joining us!

[thunderpout]

Cody... still going out Sunday?  What time ya thinking?

[Cody Gruchow]

dunno, thinking of going tommorow as soon as i can. mitch and i otherwise i dunno.
