Aw, shucks

I was shooting my Taurus 1911 and one of the essex frames at 5.5" Caldwell marking targets today. I was fighting tennis elbow but was getting everything in the 5.5" target. The guy who showed me his Kriss Vector told me he was amazed at how well I shot, one of the best he's seen. So I did my best, golly-gee, aw shucks routine.

Nice to know when you are cussin' the spread, someone else may have a different opinion.

You see people of all levels and abilities out at the range. It is nice to know while you're being hard on yourself others are admiring from a distance. Lots of good friendships get started that way.

My loud whining had absolutely nothing to do with it, I'm sure.

Perhaps he was admiring your creative use of expletives instead.

Whining and expletives? Sounds like some of my better range trips..........
