GrumpyOne Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 I'm starting this thread in the hopes that our distinguished elderly shooters will also chime in... You know that you're a Super Senior when the 12 moa dot on your open gun is too small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flatland Shooter Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 You know that you're a Super Senior when you take off running at full speed and the RO has to slow down to a crawl so he doesn't pass you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi-Power Jack Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Five years ago, I asked a Master shooter with whom I was squadded, "What can I do to get faster?", and he responded "GET YOUNGER". So, I shot him - it was a pleasant day . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stepped on it on this one. Edited June 12, 2017 by Bkreutz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarge Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Had a super senior ask me where the marks were to put his toes this weekend. I said your toes are touching them already. He said he would take my word for it since he couldn't see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I assume he didn't win the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Evidently the USPSA web site doesn't always agree with itself: USPSA - Frequently Asked Questions Can you sign me up as a senior?
