It's that time of year. Once a year, every year, on the Sunday before Christmas, we have a flintlock shoot. Running deer target at 40 yards.
How it works is everyone who wants to shoot gives $4 into the pot and gets a number. As the shoot starts each number is called in order to the firing line. You call pull, take your shot, and move back from the line. Once everyone has shot once, the numbers are repeated until everyone has shot twice. You're allowed 1 misfire per round.
After the 2nd round the scores are tallied. Winner gets 1/2 of the $$$ and the Gun Club keeps the rest. We run until everyone is tired of loading. I'll keep shooting as long as there's 1 other person willing to stand on the line.
Scoring is done according to the target posted below.
Cushion Peak Rod and Gun club
180 Vinemont Road
Reinholds, Pa 17569

For my education, how does the puller work? I am in Georgia and sorry probably will not make it this year to see it.
