Jim held his Peep Shoot today. He started this in 1998 when he took a break from clearing the junipers for his house location. There were some marshmallow "peep" candies in the truck, so they set them out and shot at them with muzzleloaders. We did this today, hitting the ground under the Peep to bounce it away. This was the tie-breaker, longest bounce won over a shorter one. My undoing...
There were eight shooters, three of them women and two left-handers. All shot flintlocks except me, and I still can't see well from the big boys kicking sand in my eyes. Here is Carole before the wind came up.
Here is Kyne shooting his .69 smoothbore at the black buffalo, then the white turkey.
