It was nearly unbearable 90 something degree heat. Sweat was stinging my eyes & my clothes were glued to me. BUT, I’d have to say this was one of many moments that day when I just didn’t care. Went plinking with all my male buddies that day with a full on arsenal, taking out bowling pins & old bottles full of water, dancing them about the range. My Zen moment, where you think of nothing else. Not the heat, the bills, work, school, just hitting the target.

Sarah wanted a Walther PPS or a Walther P22 for her birthday. She got both! This is a PPS and she's at the indoor firing range shooting it for the first time.

Vintage portrait image of a target practice head shot. This is an actual photograph of someone’s paper target from the shooting range. Graphics on the target are similar to those from the 1990s. I think someone took this photo and was going to use the image as a joke portrait (identification card or yearbook) and realized that almost any joke would be in poor taste. With that aside I thought that someone with an interest in portraiture might want to view this. This found photo comes from the personal collection of an unknown and/or unknowing art collector. It’s always a thrill when it’s from Vinnie DeVille!

I took my oldest child, and only daughter, to the shooting range today. She did well, and learned quickly. I think the time in our back yard, with the BB gun has really helped ease her into it. The ideas of breathing slowly, sight picture, and some of the basics of firearm safety had already been learned. So, she was ready to do well today.

Not something that I would have chosen, but somebody did. I just hope that the first shot was from a looooong way off.
