There are several things that come to mind when going to any given shoot, but these are a few that really bother me:

1. Left handed shooters shooting to my right.

2. People that talk at shoots, especially while squaded.

3. People that shoot autos without a catcher/deflector.

4. People that complain about targets.

5. People that cuss and carry on like idiots when they miss.

6. People that bring dogs to shoots that don't behave.

Fat people who haul their golf carts to the shoot like Bikers going to Sturgis...so their hick offspring can joyride in them all week.


I'm all for geniunely elderly people with health issues riding in them (70+ with pacemakers, etc.), but the Youth division of the Ugly Americans Society could use some exercise.

What grinds my gears...?

People whose only reason for existing is to whine, whimper and complain about everything and anything that doesn't perfectly suit them as like they're trying to convince the world that the whole event should have been organized and run exclusively to their complete satisfaction and for their individual benefit!

Take a deep breath, suck it up and deal with it, Sparky!

Where ya been, squirrelkiller?...

"Deal with it" means exactly that... do what you can do to resolve the situation and, failing a resolution, shut up and keep on keepin' on. If that shoot doesn't meet your expectations, bring it to the attention of the people that have the authority/ability to address your concerns. Whimpering and whining to anybody within earshot isn't "dealing with it".

Excuse me, but I took your 1st post differently. When I grew up and somebody said, "Deal with it", that was meant to shut up and be quiet. ie Deal with it the way it is and don't complain. If anybody has been in competitive sports, this is said quite often by coaches. As you can tell, I don't follow that rule to well at my age now. I do occasionally tell my boys to "Deal with it" in the historical definition.

All cool
