I want to thank Jeff and his lovely wife for hosting this event.
Also, thanks to everyone that works so hard yr after yr to make sure the grass is cut, the targets are in place , the restroom is operable, the food is prepared and all the other things that have to be done for this event to take place.
I have come to the Challenge and Polar Bear shoots a few times now (mostly as a spectator) and have become aquatinted with many of you and even made great friends with some.
I am honored to be in the company of so many that share the same passion for muzzleloading rifles that I do.
You guys have something very special going on there in Ky and I just wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone that made this weekend possible and for making me feel so welcome.
Keith McDowell

Thanks for coming Keith and congratulations on some fine shooting. As soon as I saw your first 100 yard target, I knew the competition would be tough! Please share some of your long range ML experience.

Another great time!
I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did.
Thanks to all who pitched in and did their part, this is truly a great bunch of guys.
When I look around and see the guns guys are shooting now compared to 5 years ago it shows just how serious this bunch is about what we are doing, congrats to Keith and all the rest who shot well.
Most of all thanks to Jeff and Mindy for hosting this shoot, I see it as more of a family reunion than a competition, I look forward to the next one!

It was good to see everyone back in Kentucky. We do it just like they did in the old days except we have state of the art muzzle loaders....
America's fronteersmen did just what we do, gather on the banks of the Licking river, camp out and shoot their muzzle loaders and tell stories..
If any of you ever want to read a good book about some of the settelment of Kentucky, pick up the book,,, The Fronteersmen, I read it 20 years or so ago and can still remember some of the story line.
The next shoot will be the Polar Bear some time in Febuary
