Ga. state match fun for everyone

Post by ole95 »

Anytime I go to Ga. To shoot it a great day :)
This weekend being the Ga. State I had 3 days of fun!! Ron and Sherri Dixon make sure everyone arrives with a smile on their face and leave with a smile on their face. Robert and Melvin are always there to fill in the gaps to make sure this happens!!. Miss Sherri pulled some strings and got us 3 beautiful days of weather which gave us 3 full days of shooting 3 nights of eating and socializing.
The highlight of the match was the SB UAS shoot offs anytime you got 1 man and 2 women in a shoot off for top banana it’s something not to miss. Ron did pull it out for the men #:-s but with cheering from the peanut section the ladies went 3 more rounds in a battle for 2nd. :ymapplause: :ymapplause:
If I could only make one match a year this would be it. The Dixons are special people always with a smile on their face. And if I work real hard I some time can get a smile on Roberts face. :D
Thanks you Ga. shooters :ymapplause: **==

Richard,
Those were some kind words about the Dixon's and never have truer words been spoken; you have just summarized what the rest of us know, but maybe don't say quite often enough. As for me smiling :D :D ; it has to do with your "double secret probation" to becoming an official Georgia IHMSA resident. Who knows, maybe someone will "black ball" you :)) :)) :)) :))
Congrats on a fine display of shooting and shooting and shooting........I believe that only Dr. Marty Cato and Dr. Taylor Byrum can shoot more guns in a match.
You look forward to your visit(s) to Little River Gun Club !!!!

As I mentioned to Richard in another email, his performance this past weekend was a highlight. He gathered the fruit of his practice and has worked hard to select equipment consistent with his style of shooting.
I, too, enjoyed the UAS shootoff. Of course my regret is I was not involved due to an uncooperative target. Alana Munday shot her first 60 score and those are special days. She has also worked hard to improve. We were glad to see Kesha Fussell in competition for top honors again. Thanks to Herb Dalton and Melvin Calliham, Ron got in a few entries this time. RP
