I am planning on going if my health holds out and God is willing. Don
Me too. Just look for the big dumb corn feed guy....oh wait that doesn't really narrow it down, does it?
Bryan
I'll look like this....
As for me just look for the short fat guy in shorts and flip flops. Don
I know what you look like Don. Still can't get rid of that image burned in my mind from last year. LOL
I look forward to seeing you again and perhaps shooting a few events with you and Hap again. Of course I'm sure you knew I would be there and somehow I got suckered into playing tour guide to the big corn fed surfer dude from CA above. Jeez I hope he don't want to shoot together too. Oops, did I say that out loud?
Are you bringing your lovely wife and her daughter Don?
Matt
Hi Matt, I would be honored to shoot with you. The three of us will arrive on Saturday night. I am not sure how to take that (Still can't get rid of that image burned in my mind from last year). But I will just take it as a compliment. LOL Don
Wish I was going...someday hopefully before I check out...
Not this year unfortunately, now it's getting closer I wish I was able to come.
Been 14 times an it still gets as exciting as the first, Matt smoke a couple for me.
We are already planning next summer though, wife says she cannot put up with me moping around with a long face.
For all the lucky one's have a great Grand and stay safe.
Matt I hope the shoulder is good and recovery on track, shoot well and straight, i will watch Stuarts for your name to show up.
Release trigger.......aka. Gary Kennerson.
I'll be there. Can't shoot........but I'll be there.
Gary "Release trigger",
You will be missed by many. Are any of your mates gonna make the trip or is the whole group of you taking a year?
Because you asked, my shoulder is doing pretty darn good. I'm working on getting my strength back. It's coming along fine. I'll be read to go for the Grand. I sure wish you were gonna make it. I completely understand why though. Hopefully you get all that straightened out and make it next year.
Take care and stay in touch,
Matt
Am I the only one going from Ohio???? Don
Same as Don. God willing, I'll be there from the 9th through the 16th. Camping Spot 1480 on Monarch Drive. No callers after 10 PM.
Gene Batchelar Wheaton, IL
Count me in.
Don
Sign me up and save me a spot on 3 Don! Nuttin like a "Grand" shoot right after the Western Zone! I'm leavin the latter part of July, heard the fish were bitin too!! I don't know how much shooting I can take but I'm gonna giver a whirl!!
Hap
right now its looking like i will be shooting "at" all the targets! i think i will shoot the whole thing
Boom-Boom & I get there Friday and will shoot everything Sat through the GAH on the following Sat.
Anyone need a 23.5 yd squadmate for handicaps willing to shoot any post????
Guy Babin
Guy, I shoot 23.5 right now. Come on board unless you are one of those "slow" shooters....;)
Bryan
I don't know if I have a chance of winning with all of your pro's shooting, but I might come and break a bird or two.
Hauxfan!
I only have one confirmed shooter on my 24.5 yard squad. Since Hap is probably to long yardage to shoot with me. Don
I passed up a "premium" campsite in the North 40, Grass, concrete pad, picnic table, to be right in the middle (on gravel) of all my Georgia and North Carolina "homies". However, I learned my lesson by attending a late night social gathering at the GA State shoot two months ago and discovered that my drinking abilities are not what they use to be. Therefore, I will bow out of all social gatherings around 10pm every night. I will dedicate myself to Root Beer Floats and Peach Cobblers!
blade819
I'll be there. Going to Sparta this year for the first time.
I had planned to go, made reservations and had it all set up with some other club members, besides my diabetes and COPD I have been in congestive heart failure for the last seven years and it is catching up with me, not looking for sympathy but several shooters I hang with are wondering how come I have quit shooting competition and have been extending feelers, guys I just do not have the strength or stamina any more, looks like I will never get to go compete at the grand, shoulda done it sooner.
You all shoot good and have a GRAND time.
Rick
Hivoltfl... your health is far more important than standing in the sun, 101 degrees and shooting for 8 hrs. a day. You take care of yourself! I'm sure daily updates will be posted on TS.com.
blade819
What else is there to do?
I have motel reservations 14th--17th. This U S heat wave should be past by then. 103 in N W Ohio on June 28. 100 forcast for today. Staying cautious at my age. Clyde
Because I am a retired public sector employee in Wisconsin I will have to pass. Thanks to $#$^$%%^ gov. Walker I may have to pass for the rest of my life....
GS
Barry has had some joint work done that's got him slowed up right now.
Just look for the ROACH'S BIG DAWGS sign.
I will be there this year. My first time in Sparta. Taking a 30 trip across the U.S. and ending up at the Grand. Will be there August 6 thru 18. Staying in the campground.
GBeer
Gbeer, at your new yardage I might add....**heehee**
Yep that 2 yard reduction didnt last long. I told you I shouldnt have gone to any shoots before the Grand so I could be up close and win everything. Oh wait that's on a different thread. Heading there on the 26.5 and hope to leave there on the 27?
GBEER
It is good to see that there will be shooters there other than grntitan, Hap and me LOL. We still have spots on our squad if anyone is interested. Don
Gary did you want to get on our squad for singles?
We'll be there!!! Yahooooooooooooo..............
D.P.Reynolds
I'll be there with a squad. Should be there mid day on Sun. Midalake. What will you be doing burying all our money and using your best in the world health care that you didn't pay for. Don't start. I think most on this site wouldn't agree with you. Is that you George? How many times do we need to elect him in for one term?
Its been a 100+ degrees there near every day. I may have second thoughts. Ohio has been in the 90's also. Clyde
This weather here in Illinois so far has been a month ahead. No snow all winter played golf 3 times in Feb, planting corn in March, corn tasseled and wheat harvested in mid June. I say we are having our early August weather now.
By that reasoning the Grand in August we should be into mid Sept weather, 80 for highs and 60 for lows.
At least we can hope for that.
About 50 kids from the Manchester TN area that used to shoot the AIM Nationals are going to prelim weekend and some into big week. They are competative dedicated shooters that do not want to shoot the AIM kidde "Carnival" so watch out for several good sub Juniors and Jr's in the events Saturday and Sunday.
Depends on the weather forcast. Over 90 - no go....
RLC323 , I like the way you are thinking, can you assure me that will be the case? Don
I am going to suck it up and go like the lot of you should. Just be mindful of your exposure and drink A LOT of water and seek shade when you can.
Bryan
Rennerize Spoke to Pete S the other day also Hap hope to catch you all again at the Grand how about ordering some cool weather or do you want me to bring some from down under as it is winter here. Cheers Stubbie
LOL@Stubbie!! Glad to hear you will be there my friend!! I'll have my Indian friend get his "magic rock dust" out and do a fair weather dance for the Grand!! Just in case he's been in the sauce lately, bring along a tad of the cooler weather from down under too!! Have a safe fun trip over my friend and shoot well too!!
Hap
Sadly, no.
I'm going but wont be shooting. Gonna volunteer some time to the ATA where ever they need it. See you there.
I will be attending my 44th consecutive Grand along with junior shooting buddies Bob Glatz and Dean Townsend. I have many vendors of products at the Grand and I always go to work the shoot but also try to shoot a little. Can't wait for Christies Pizza, Little York Tavern, the beer tent, ooops sorry wrong thoughts!!! Wrong place.
Bob Gibson
Bob. What was it about Little York Tavern's pizza that made it so good? Was it the cold beer, the well endowed barkeep or the fact that they never cleaned the oven.. I don"t know what it was but it was good.
Barry, how is the wing coming along? Glad you will be coming to the Grand despite not being able to shoot. I'll look you up.
Matt
Matt. My shoulder's getting better every day. I probably could shoot some but I promised the doc I'd wait the full 3 mos. Turns out I think that three months from surgery is about right.
See you there. My camper site is 432. I don't know if or where I'll be working but I offered.
Barry, that's a very gracious offer guy, good for you!!
I'd like to see you assist the target setting group setting the elevations according to our height rule!
Sunday before last, I shot some 9 to 10 foot targets on my first 50 and 14 on the second 50!
Hap
Barry:
The Little York Tavern had good pizza, not as good as Christies but the cold beer helped... I used to like to watch Bob Schultz cleaning up on the pool tables........
The wednesday night "Ugly Girl dance contest" was riveting as well.
BG Charlotte, NC
Stubbie we will be looking forward to shooting with you again this year. Yes please bring some of that cool weather with you for the whole squad. Don
Bob. Didn't Christy's morph into a chinese buffet?
I'll be there. First time to Sparta.
My son and me are going again this year.
Will probably shoot a few events, but under penalty.
Regards....Gerald
Watched the $100,000 dollar shoot off last night on Shooting Usa, really made me miss the Grand Atmosphere. Have fun out there you guys.
D.Tate
I am hoping to get some of the added lewis money since I did not get any of it last year.
