nick m Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 What the hell. It's a little victory, but I've got no one to tell. My family, Boss, Neighbor, Roomate... they all gave me a look like, "why not first?" "oh, you were the first loser, eh?" "just second?" Screw 'em. The guy that won first is the local Grand Master who kicks our butts every month by miles. I only got 68 percent of his score. It's my third shoot and the snow was on the ground and it was below freezing up here in Fairbanks Alaska. It was also my first match with moving targets. they are hard. I'm reading the other "accomplishments!" threads and feeling like I might be over-reacting a bit, but I'm as proud of this as almost anything else in my life and, dammit, I'm going to tell someone... anyone... thanks! -nick m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganShootist Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Good For You !!!! Focus on how many shooters you beat... not the few that beat you. Cream always rises to the top Most time this year I shot revolver.. and people ask why you would do that when 20% of the shooters beat you... My answer is noooooooooooo I beat 80% of the shooters with a 6 shot wheel gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLE-ShootingSports Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Hey! Third shoot, and you came in second? Unless there was only two people in that division, you took second! Be proud! Put your guns away, and have a beer! Have one for me too. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
