The Order of the Iron Trooper
« on: October 08, 2006, 08:02:11 PM »
The Iron Trooper is awarded to the Over all Winner of the GAF Muster.  It is one of the most difficult objectives to achieve in the CAS realm.  Via as small error, I will be getting mine in the rears, but I am more proud of earning the Iron Trooper than I am of any other CAS related trophy I have earned.  Now, the purpose of this post is not to pat myself on the back.  Who thinks they can take it from me next year?  Who thinks they have what it takes to become the 2007 Iron Trooper?  Yes, I am talking to you.  You two handed shooters think you have what it takes to beat this Duelist?  If you do, I will see you on the plain of battle in Ackley, Iowa the Weekend September 15th of 2007.   ;)

Congratulations Major Matt.  But ya better watch out I will be practicing before next year.  I had a very good time shooting with you and shooting the bull with you too.  You are a fine gentleman for a GAMER. ;D ;D ;D

Thanks for the Congrats, but the purpose of the post is to throw down my Gauntlet to any and all Challangers for next year.  Who here thinks they are shooter enough to win the Iron Trooper?

Major Matt,
I'd keep an eye on that Bristow feller, if I was you.  It was his first GAF match (with new guns, to boot!), and he is accurate.  With a year to pick up some speed, he may just pick up that gauntlet and feed it to you.

"Excuse me sir, do you prefer catsup or ranch with that glove?  Pehaps some grey poupon?

And don't count me out, just yet.

Guns,

You got that right....that KID can shoot.  I kind of hopes he takes a run at it.  Nothing like competition to assist participation...LOL.  Not only was it his first GAF Match, it was his first CAS match....Me thinks, he has A LOT of potential.

Guns,

I am definately not counting you out either.  You would have beat me if I did not get EXTREMELY lucky on the last stage and hit the spike on the first try.

Well....with a challenge like that I might just take to practicing.... ::)

Durn on the date though - that's the weekend prior to the T Town Shootout so there is no way we'll be able to go...  :'(   :'(

Matt,
 Do you not recall, Grasshopper, that it was I who first showed you how to hit the spike on the first shot???
