Default Harrisburg Eastern Outdoor show/shoot pics!

Okay guys and gals. I just got back a short time ago from the Harrisburg Outdoor show and shoot and wanted to share some pictures.

I managed to qualify for the finals Saturday and I'll meet Matt / PA on the line for finals. I'm hoping Matt (Rick James) will qualify and meet us on that line for a shootoff.

This gives you guys an idea of what your shooting at. The targets are staggered throughout the arena. The difficulty level goes up as the targets go up.



To give you an idea of the height, this is a picture from the level the top targets were on looking down.



Here's looking toward the targets from the top level. Notice how small the people are? Now, think about how small the targets look looking up. [&:]



I met Andy (our Diesel77) with Ultimate Camo.



And a picture of River Valley Game Calls where I called turkeys. You should have met all the ones that came to the booth...LOL



I was exhausted after the shoot. I shot roughtly 4 warm up shots at 8 yards and then 28 targets. Amazing how that mentally exhausts you. I've shot a pile more in my back yard without fatique but man, the pressure, mental shooting etc wears you out.

I was able to finish 6 up on 28 targets. MBR is 45 yards max, that seemed about right give or take a yard.
