    Default Backwoods US Open

    Want to see some good clays shooters? Head to Georgetown this weekend.

    I'm going fishing.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    I start shooting today and I think Fish starts Friday. This is a really big deal in the world of sporting clays. Ya'll come check it out. There tons of vendors and side games to shoot even if you are shooting in the tournament.

    I bet John Michael is happier than a hog in slop right now. Good for Rick and all those boys down there. I bet the Mingo Exxon has had do dish out twice the amount of hot dogs and tater wedges as usual.

    John Michael is part of the entertainment Saturday night along with Sel. Its caller anger management. Tom Knapp was supposed to put on a show Sat night but you all know the story there. Rick has been preparing for a year now. Can't wait to check out vendors row.

    Wish I was there to go see it. My great-uncle works out there, and they've been busting ass to get things right. Good luck to you guys shooting.

    John Michael is the guy that works for Rick at Backwoods. Mike Montgomery is a much older fella. The show with him and Sel is at 8:00 Sat night.

    My gawd the guns they had out there are works of art. They had a couple selling for $220,000! The Krieghoffs were really sweet too. It is total sensory overload for a shotgunner.

    I shot a 91 in the Prelim. The high was a 96 so a few short of first but I had a great time.

    I was at tract near there Tuesday and Wednesday cruising.The shots coming from over there were un real. They never stopped all day long. At times it sounded like one long boom for hour or so. I would love to be selling the shells they are shooting. There are a lot of folks at that place.

    Rick has a tractor trailer full of shells and the vendors have even more. I ended up buying a few flats after I had some problems with the estates I brought. The main starts today. There will be a lot of shooting today. With over 1100 shooters in the main.

    This is a shot from inside the Galazan motor home. I would guess that the average price on these guns is around $25k. There were lots more outside.

    John Michael is Rick's nephew. He used to get in trouble all the time for running up a big ass tab on his Daddy's name when he was in middle school/high school.
