A few March pictures

An Appleseed Senior Instructor that we know went to Turkey. When he came back, he sent each of my siblings and I something that he got there for us. Thank you Hawkhavn! Dad and I designed and made this stand for my bowl.

This is (sometimes) the only way I can keep working on the same thing for hours on end. ;-)

An Appleseed Instructor from California picked these avocados off of her tree, straight into the box and then sent them to us! Thank you 22calgal!!!

Philippians 4:8


Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Some Emotional Motivation-The half minute shot

Original post by TaosGlock here: http://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?topic=20995.0


From Ted Gundy, a DOM.

Ted Gundy is 84 years old, WWII vet, who lost a leg to artillery fire in 1944, and he is still an impressive shot.
Thank you for serving our country.

From Winchester's: The Shooting Wire for Monday, February 8
"Old Sniper" 
It was a simple question 84-year old Ted Gundy put to the guys at Shooting USA's Impossible Shots: "How is it possible for snipers today to hit targets from such long ranges?"

Pictures from an Appleseed Weekend

I broke my personal high score and got a "WinterSeed" Rifleman Patch at the same time!

The Instructor who scored the target thought it was necessary to write "right handed" on it as I shoot both right handed and left handed.

Evenstar also broke her high score record and got her WinterSeed Patch!

This is a picture I took for a Montana Instructor (Clodhopper)

Clodhopper started it with a green marker (and eyelashes!) in Nampa, Idaho - October 30-31, 2010. Since then, we've always drawn an eye on the tape that I use to cover my dominant eye when I shoot left handed.

Isaiah impressed the instructors by sticking it out all weekend. Here he is about to receive a special patch that he has earned.

Rizzin decided that he'd like to become an instructor. Here he is being welcomed to the crew by the Idaho State Coordinator.

And here he is receiving his orange hat.

 Right after that, he went to work. :-)
