But, I really do enjoy the sub .40 bunch. We get the hot ladies while they get the pink panties.

But really, we're all in this together. It's not about the Big Belt Buckle or the Cadillac waiting in the parking lot. No, it's about friendship, meeting new shooters and expanding our sport. Let's face it. There's a LOT of Grey Power at the shooting line. I'm personally wanting to see more dark hair next to me.

I agree that it would be nice to compete against a younger crowd. Or even one or two younger fellows or gals but the shooting sports as a whole are comprised of grey hairs and grey beards. It is difficult to get youngsters interested in coming out. Schools, politics and etc have ruined them.

Well said DD.

Several of the ladies in our Posse shoot 44s and 45s. My wife shoots 44wcf although she is burning the new fangled heathen powder in it. We've considered switching her to real gun powder but she loves shooting her Schofield and it doesn't play well with black powder.

Ah ... EXERT ones self?? Exert?? Surely you jest. Fat Chance.
Although, the club I shoot with in Ohio is host to the overall winner at Guns of August. SHE is fantastic. Shoots good too.

I can't miss as fast as most folks finish a stage....particularly the young champions that I've seen shoot!
