I had a great time shooting (and was humbled) at Horse Creek today. I got to shoot with msome good buddies and I also got to meet someone that I have "known" from tradgang for a number of years, but never crossed paths with before.

After years of talking to Robert Carter on the internet I finally got to meet him.

He is a great guy as advertised, but it was a costly encounter. Here is Rick Connell making payment for the shooting lessons we got...

I was sick, didn't get much sleep last night, shot twenty targets before the sixty I shot with him, had a dried up contact lens in my right eye, and had a rock in my left shoe, but other than that he beat me fair and square.
Another satisfying encounter with a tradgang contact. That makes six this summer alone.
:archer2:
Cool! I have also communicated with RC a number of times thru the years and been entertained/educated by his posts many times but have yet to have the pleasure of meeting him in person. Maybe one day.
Thats too cool.
:clapper: :clapper:
Good stuff Gregg!
:clapper:
Its those darn rocks!!!
Man, that's a rowdy looking crew! Sounds like y'all had a great time. Can you talk Robert into coming down to TBOF shoot in the spring?
:thumbsup: :thumbsup:
C :cool: :cool: L
I didn't recognize him without a half-dozen dead hogs in the photo. I'm actually surprised his feral hog population hasn't migrated north out of fear. :)
Looks like a great day! :thumbsup:
I think RC might be one of those guys that'll "shoot OK" till ya get your money out, then kiss it good bye. :laughing:
Eric
Yeah, don't believe Robert when he says he can' t shoot. He is a great guy. I am glad you got to meet him.
Heck! I didn't think they would let RC out of the Georgia swamps this time of year. That snake that struck at him a while back must have really got his attention. RC is still high on my list to share a campfire with. As for his shooting ability, he kills far to much stuff to be anything but good. Thanks for sharing my man.
If you think RC can shoot you oughta see Biggie- he taught Robert everything he knows about shootin' ;)
Gregg,
I thought you were a TradGang legend.
Very cool!!
Gregg is being too kind....at least I did`nt lose any arrows. It was a great day of fun for me as I have not shot at a rubber deer in a long time.Really glad to see old friends and make new ones plus got in some much needed practice for next week the start of our Ga. deer season.
thanks guys...the 20 bucks went a long way on the tbones that night..lol.RC
