That second one is neat. I can almost see my heartbeat wobble it around.
I need to replace my iPhone. I took it swimming with me a couple times last year while fishing and I was lucky enough that it survived, but it doesn't take pictures worth a crap anymore. For about 3 months the camera wouldn't work at all. It used to take real nice photos.

Nice pictures Dee. What is the location of that range? I too was out at the range today. Was not so lovely. Warm at 65 but pain in the a** wind out of the south. Shot 75 rds. of 7-08 out of two rifles.
Trent, I got a camera but no phone in it.

Not to bad for a phone with an affects app installed

This was in Mississippi at the SMGA range right off the interstate at the Louisiana border near the Stennis Space Center. It is one of our favorite ranges very rustic with a elevated shooting platform. Hopefully the weather will stay nice for at least another month but the heat is coming already.

I don't know why, but I like the first picture best. It was the nicest match day so far this year I have seen. The HEAT is coming soon, so you better enjoy it while it lasts.

I REALLY dig that shooting vest with the Fluer de Tigre on it! Who made that, or where did your friend get it? I'm in Montana, but family is originally from Slidell area, so HUGE LSU fan. 2 of my siblings went to LSU. Funny how many LSU fans are up here in Mt too, you see LSU flags on houses here and there, and a guy a couple blocks from me has a custom fishing boat in LSU colors to match his flag. Anyway, yeah, please leme know where that jacket came from. Thanks.

Mt_medic that vest came from Hardscrabble and if I recall correctly Jeaux sent them the fleur tiger eye design and they had it converted to a embroydering file for the sewing machine. They should be able to reproduce it now without the added expense of programming the design again.

Looks a lot better than my day at the range today. We had to tape the rams to keep the wind blowing them over.

Mt_medic, Chris at Hardscrabble has the rights to the fleur de tiger. The vest he made me with that on the back turned out great. When combined with my purple and gold Evelio McDonald built 1712, no one can doubt that I am a tiger fan. Give Chris a call, he'll hook you up.

Saw that vest and rifle combo this weekend and loved it. My wife loved the vest as she is not into rifles to much....LOL. I can say it is one fine looking piece of equipment.

One of the great things about this sport is that you don't have to try to blend in with your surroundings, not that I could if I tried. I am very pleased with the way the vest turned out and it sure leaves little doubt on which college team I root for. The color scheme on my rifle make it look like a fashion accessory. Bring on the bling.

Jeaux, funny how many tiger fans are here up north. During football season there are lots of LSU flags around town, and theres a guy about a block from me who has a fishing boat in LSU colors to match his flag. Just funny. I put my flag out for baseball season too, Geaux Tigers!!
PS- I was lucky enough to get tickets to the LSU/Bama game last fall, and was there to see that upset. So awesome.

I can imagine how it is. On the back of a diploma from LSU there is a map showing graduates all the different routes out of Louisiana to find good jobs in other states. That is probably how there are so many tiger fans all over the country.
There are many ways for a LSU football coach to lose his job, but one sure way to keep it is to BEAT BAMA. We could lose every game of the season except the Alabama game and the coach would get another year, But go 10-2 and lose to Bama at home and your job is on the line. Folks around here hate Nick Saban, but if you polled anonymously, 8/10 would take him back if he would come. It's crazy, but it makes sense to us.
