Phoenix 10, last day of shooting

 Last day of shooting at EOT. We shot the late shift at 2 PM and were done around 4. 

I finished in good shape, another clean day with all raw times between 28 and 38 seconds overall.  Tomorrow we’ll see if that is good enough for a buckle.  
We had a good fun posse, everyone worked and jumped in making it easy for everyone.  
This morning we watched the mounted shooting for a while. It’s always fun to see this game on horseback!  I always look at it as my alternate time line. 
This evening we had a banquet dinner of roast beef or chicken.  The beef was excellent even though there wasn’t any rare meat left when I got there.  
Then they had the evening wear costume contest, always a good show.

The object in mounted shooting is to shoot these red or blue balloons in a certain pattern.  
The pattern weaves a bit going out, with 5 sots; then around a barrel and a straight line to run fast back with 5 more shots.




This one runs it in 14.034 seconds
