Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. This x 1,000! Please duplicate this year's format for next year & beyond! And thank you again to the entire Gibson clan, ROs, and sponsors.
  2. Ditto everything you said Russ. As long as I can carry a pack I'll be Trooper.
  3. No worries, I just wanted to be sure to give credit where credit is due to two great sponsors. I saw many folks picking up Crimson Trace laser grips and Surefire products from the prize table, too. They really stepped up, and the stage was a great way to demo both companies' products.
  4. Fixed it for ya. And I agree, that was a really fun stage!
  5. I'd suggest Tuesday and Saturday nights instead. Speaking for myself I'll be in more of a mindset for BBQ/ meet & greet after the match is over.
  6. It's excellent. I own one and use it a lot as part of a general weight training program. You don't have to be uber fit to use it. One of its advantages is its use while traveling. Bodyweight exercises usually don't target the posterior chain (back, hams, etc) that well so the TRX fills the gap. You can use the TRX to make an exercise as easy or tough as you need per your fitness level.
  7. Recently I heard a similar concept explained as, "You are the average of the five people you hang around with most." Interesting to ponder that, for both shooting and non-shooting aspects of life.
  8. I'm torn on the plate rack. They went down with 00 of course but seemed to go down just fine with #6 too. Spinners, yeah, 00 rules.
  9. Well... it depends on what your definition of "off" is. I think there were one or two strands of Velcro holding it on there. Otherwise it looked darned close to a striptease to those of us behind the line ...
  10. This was my first Ironman and I loved it. Thanks so much to Travis, Mike, the SPONSORS (FNH USA!!) and to the ROs who worked themselves into the ground for a week solid. Congrats too to all the winners. I really hope the final 3 Gun Nation shoot-off will become a regular part of the event.
  11. I can't comment on Ahimsa, as that is a specific Hindu/Buddhist/Jain (and somewhat Christian) philosophy. However, as for Zen specifically, there is significant crossover in practice between it and the Martial Arts.
  12. Exactly my experience with my SLP at 50, using RR Fiocchis.

    Beginner's Mind

    I was taught something similar, almost a corollary to this, when I started learning how to shoot. I was taught, "be task oriented, not goal oriented" when learning / doing a new procedure (such as reloading a shotgun). The point was that being goal oriented in such a procedure takes you out of the moment where you are, losing your awareness if you will, and makes you anxious to be at some point in the future...often with disastrous results.

    What is it?

    Profoundly true. I am rediscovering now the lessons of Zen I had learned while studying martial arts years ago.
  15. I found this as well, esp. compared to my Vang Comp'd Mossberg 590A1. That was one reason I went looking for a reduced recoil slug.
