	Well, ya know, both are all right, but the guy with the nice pistola is what I was talking about. The other feller looks a little sneaky hiding behind that gesture to keep us from seeing he's stealing the yard decorations at the park.

	That yard decoration has a few names on it. It for best offhand 10 shot score at 200 and was awarded once a year at Tacoma. I made it on there once. There were only 2 shooters, but the other was Gary Miller so I felt good beating him. I think the engraver has Joe's name preprogrammed.

	Here's the same cabinet photo I altered on my android phone. Background blurred, "copy" removed and reduced in size to post.

And it had to be done with a traditional rifle in a traditional caliber. Bill Crane made the matches interesting and worth going to.

	Bob did some interesting and frustrating BP matches with his Buffalo and turkey targets. I picked up hundreds of those targets from Helen after Bob passed. The local BP shooters bought them for their lever gun matches. The most diabolical target was the MR200 with masking tape across the center horizontally. 5 shots over and 5 shots under. High score but if you touch the tape it is a zero. Jack

Jack Bob was a buckskinner before he got into Schuetzen so that is where that influence came from. The trophy I'm holding was for traditional rifles with period sights in the Schuetzen matches.

	I will look for it this spring. Since nobody is shooting offhand irons any longer, I will see what the club wants to do with it. I hope they have a display case in the new clubhouse. We will be immortalized forever. The cup trophy for BP military should be around somewhere also. Jack

	Yes, I didn't know that he lived to 1900, and died at 75 years old.
