Looks like he held it hard at Perry!

Congratulations John!!

In the pouring rain all day - miserable!

Well done JB.

Well done to John Zurek too - just 3 X's shy.

Big congrats, John, well done!

Oh, but there's more ...

;-)

Thank you all. I cashed in years' worth of Bullseye karma to pull that one off. My balance is at zero.

Somehow... I think there's a seed, however small, that's going to continue growing...

I've never met Jordan Kramp, but I've been squadded, or 'shot with' Brian Mason and *Matt Early* ...

Great people... great shooters.

Keep it going.

Despite having a team that was at least 7/16th Asian, only John’s name proved to be unpronounceable.

Ok, since all of these guys are too humble ...

The CRPA team also took the Ogelthorpe Trophy. Last time was 1985.

Congrats John!
...and on the Oglethorpe Trophy too!

Is it too Early for jokes like that? I wouldn't want you to get a Kramp. Let's not Bicker.

(Dammit, can't come up with a "Mason" pun...)

Yes, thank you for mentioning that. The CRPA Scarlet team of John Bickar, Jordan Kramp, Brian Mason, and Matt Early won the Oglethorpe Tropy, and 2nd overall, in the National Trophy Team match. I am very proud, and humbled, to have had the opportunity to shoot alongside these fine gentlemen and bring the Oglethorpe Trophy back to California for the first time in 38 years, particularly under the, uh, ... challenging... conditions in which we shot the NTT.

Please stop ...

You're making me tear up ...

Miss all you'll ...

Might be back ... 'soon' ... buy you lunch at ... uh, the sandwich/beer pub at Marsh ???

Probably still in a Mason Jar on Funk &Wagnalls porch.

I would prefer Mi Hacienda at 2nd and Bay. Freewheel is fine, but Mi Hacienda is better.

I'll even let you buy lunch

I believe it was a mayonnaise jar. According to Carnac anyway.

Back porch?

Carson was the best.

Never been there. Back in the day it was a bar. Always seemed sketchy. Cocola is a shorter walk ...

There was a good sandwich shop in the other direction. Corner of ???? IIRC, somebody built it out in the corner of his machine shop as a side business. I kinda remember a roll-up door facing the side street. I definitely remember they always had cute girls working there.
