Re: Colorado State High Power - 2011
Three things helped me shoot good on Saturday:
1. We had great conditions on that made for good Standard Rifle scores. Rarely do we have such nice days on match days at Colorado Rifle Club.
2. I had the Guru spotting for me. The Guru knows how to spot and encourage his shooter to excel during the match. When I would shoot a low shot on an animal he would say" I want to see the next one in the center" . When I would miss he call the location of the miss and say" I want you to pick up the rest of the remaining animals on bank. The Guru always gave me up dates on the wind speed and direction during the match. The Guru did a damn good job of helping this 6.5mm shooter.
3. I was wearing my lucky underwear the pair with the brown racing stripe down the middle. Wearing the lucky underwear gave me the confidence to shoot good scores. Note to self: Wash underwear before wearing to help with the chafing on my butt.

Bob, The pyro in me says use the gas, it also fills a sick need for revenge but the ant killer will kill the queen which you must do to ensure the nest just doesn't move else were. Also bring at least 5 gal. of water to soak it in. Or to put yourself out if you go with the gas! 
Its a dog eat dog world and I'm wearing milk bone underwear.

I vote for ant killer McAlice. I'd hate to see you on the news for setting the prairie on fire!
