That's great! And thanks for hosting a cool event. DK was teaching me about instinct shooting at the last M&G and it's really amazing! I always look forward to new learning experiences.

Hey J, Bill is the master on that one. He certainly helped me with that and more...

Keep on DK and your'e gonna swell Bill's big head bigger than it already is.

As long as it don't get as big as your BELLY Henry then I will be ok.
Big Head Bill

I aint sayin squat...

I have only been on the forum a short time but I would love to come. My 15 year old son and I just went to the farm we have permission to hunt on for a weekend camp and shooting trip with some friends and it was great. Also, I have a small(80-90 acre) abandoned farm in Culpepper that I have exclusive written permission to hunt/camp on that I would be willing to offer as a site for group shooting trips or camping and shooting. There is a mix of open fields and woods. Just let me know if anyone wants to get together for some shooting. I am in Greene county north of Charlottesville and the farm is about 45 minutes north of me on rt 29. From DC/Northern VA it's about 1 hour.

Hey DK, Henry and I were talking this weekend and have come up with a tenative date of June 5th. and 6th. with a rain date of the 12th. and the 13th. Keep an eye on the board as Henry is putting to gether something after he speak's with Rick.

I believe Rick went AWOL.

I bet he's watching to see how well we run the farm while he's "away." He's probably lurking right now with a cold one to see if we break anything...

I'm off that weekend. I'd like to go also. I doubt my wife can go though.

A reloading clinic would be very nice. I want to get into reloading as soon as I have a clean space to work.

I'll be in Seattle on a business trip on the 5th/6th of June but if it goes to the rain date, I should make it. I might bring a friend too! My VGOF sticker on my car is starting some great conversations with my friends. I'm actually finding that many of them are interested in learning to shoot when I thought they would never want anything to do with it.

My dad gets back at the end of May, and we're going to be on a trip down to Roanoke from the 5th to the 9th of June.....maybe it'll rain?

I'm really wanting to come to this.... but will make a actual decision maybe a month or two out. Depends on what is happening around here.

I have a really good HD video camera that I would bring along and get some good video of everyone slinging lead. I do a lot of video editing, so maybe I could make some DVD's for everyone. Would be especially good if some of the wiser ones (not me) gave some training.... it could be gotten on video and everyone could keep it and re-watch it.

Hmmmm, something about that sentence "could be gotten on video" doesn't sound right. Has it been that many years since English class?

I'll have more details up this weekend.

Bill we really appreciate this and hope to see a good turn out. I'm sure a great time will be had by all...

Hey Bill & Henry!! This sounds good. Been busy at home this winter and I'm about 3/4 through my projects Just finsh my project boat and put it in the water yesterday "PASSED" one small leak at live well pump. Bring on the nice weather!!!!
Let me know when you confirm your dates, would love to slide down 460

Bill, where is the farm located generally speaking? My wife wants to come but doesn't want to camp out. If it's close enough to Greene county where I live she will drive out for the day. Also i hope I can do some training with you as time permits. I have read that you were helping one of the members with instinct shooting and I would really appreciate any help you could give me in this area. I just bought a new snub nose revolver and the sight picture is so small I will have to learn to point shoot with it. Thanks, John

Hi! John
I don't realy have a farm just a 101 acers of land that include a 20 to 25 acer's of a 30 acer watershed. Some people call it a lake and some others call it a watershed. We are in Charlotte County right next to the Prince Edward County line about 18 to 20 miles north of Farmville and 4 miles off of S.R.#15. If you want to send me a P.M.I will have the wife send you the directions, she is much better at it then I am.

In reffrence to your snub nose what make and or model is it. I can teach you whatever you need to know as long as you want to spend some time. I am retired and I am here most of the time altho I will be in New Jersey for several day's around the 15th. of april for my daughters wedding I am basically free the rest of the time. If you want you can give me a call at 1-434-736-9013

We're planning a get together on June 5 . Bill has a pistol and rifle range, or if the fishing bug hits then there is a 30 lake to fish in. You can bring your own boat or use either mine or Bill's, both have trolling motors on them. There is plenty of room to camp if you want to hang around until Sunday. If there's enough interest I'm going to BBQ chicken quarters. I'll post more details as the time gets closer.

If there is a starbucks close by then I'll have to think this over. All those yahoos in there getting all caffeiened up and everything....I dont know...

Otherwise, I'm there !!!!!!
