First time chunk shooter. Looking forward to it.
Flintlock is the only truly reliable source of ignition in a muzzle loader.

I really really wanted to shoot, but haven't had a chance to pull a trigger or make a chunk since deer season.  I might show up anyway, but I doubt it.  May the wind push all your balls into the spider.  8)

OK thanks for the explanation. I have three chunk guns and would love to come down but it won't happen this year. Hopefully in a couple of years. Hope the weather is good to you guys and you all have a great time.

 There are at least six of us from Michigan that plan to come down .Most of us have around twenty years doing this . This might be the last year for me .I have a bad back and just can't get up and down anymore .Hope I can shoot all ten shots this year. Remember to aim small and wack a spider!

Good morning ladies and gentlemen
 Monday morning about 10 minutes till 11 Eastern time back in the saddle at work with a few minutes on my hands. I give you the rundown on the Sgt. Alvin York event and leave you a link to the score sheet. The Lord blessed us with a beautiful day all the Alvin C York shoot other than the fact without the tents might blow away and all the paperwork with them. Things went pretty well. Congratulations to Tom Swigart for winning the silver anniversary edition of the Sgt. Alvin C York Memorial shoot. The competition was good shooters did great and I was really proud of the staff. I'm sure that I won't catch everyone, and I'm sure that I speak for Mel as well as myself. Kay Bratton ran a line wonderfully. Thanks to her and all the other Range officers that helped as soon as she sends me the list will be sure to get their names post. Thanks to my beautiful wife Londean and Judy Anderson and Annie Dean for keeping all the paperwork straight and the scores entered. My thanks to Jerry Middendorf who very patiently scored targets all day long along with some other part-time help in Ron Boron, Steve Hitebrink., Vivian Moore, Josh Miller, and a few others that I was probably too busy to notice. All in all they did a great job if you will follow the link below it will take you to the score sheet.     http://media.wix.com/ugd/7ff034_5e51109852fc462cbca0db55154163d0.pdf

 RobinI want to thank you and everyone who worked to put on this great shoot . You said that you had a surprise for us older shooters who have a hard time getting up and down to shoot ? Would you let us know what you had in mind to help us continue to take part in this great shoot? Thank You   Eric D. Lau  Michigan
