very nice article, and thank you for the kudo's.
Kurt and I have always tried to show US shooters how much fun practical shotgunning can be. Up until recently US shotgunning was all wide open, hosefests with little technical aspect, hopefully the trend we started will continue. If not, US shotgunners will be very disappointed in their performance at any international competitions they attend. Our trips overseas for shotgunning have always been a lot of fun, both due to the match and shooting and the great people we meet and befriend.
I know both Kurt and I will look forward to being able to attend more shotgun matches next year, instead of being busy putting one on.
