Thank you so much my friend. Hope you’re doing well.

Hello Dutch, Thank you for your inquiry. Your guess is as good as mine on the NS dates. The gun was purchased out of the Cabelas gun library as-is. If you have any additional questions feel free to send me a PM.

He has not read his book thank you

Here is something Matt Black wrote recently that is some great info and thought process for our game. He has a great writing style as you will see here. Obviously his mind is on the game still. I’ve always learned more from losing than I have from winning. When we fail to reach our goals, we are more likely to take an introspective dive into a constructive self-examination period where we can ultimately identify our deficiency. In a world-class competition, the winner is often determined in the weeks/months leading up to the match, barring nothing catastrophic. To illustrate, should a competitive shooter commit a single error at any stage throughout the match, detrimental to their overall finish or otherwise, odds favor the chances that the error itself was a by-product of mistakes made in preparation or lack thereof. Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe. - Abraham Lincoln 16th president of the United States The most well-rounded shooters have worked diligently to analyze and resolve the inferior aspects of their game down to the root cause instead of compensating for them in other areas. Moreover, there is almost always an underlying, more profound complication that should be investigated without simultaneously justifying said aspects by acknowledging perceived sanctuaries. Accomplished shooters will continue to strategize and apply lessons they've learned with the intent to strengthen and diversify their existing skill sets. There is a time and place for testing new theories, building upon proven techniques, and pushing your limitations apart from routine practice sessions. It is critical, however, to isolate and refine your weakness in repetition until it becomes your strength. Develop a new process and raise your proficiency. Strive for progress, not perfection. In doing this, you will succeed in discovering something that works for you. Nonetheless, working hard on the wrong things in excess has triggered the downfall of many talented competitors. If the potential outcome of any experiment is unacceptable, i.e., projected to result in a counterproductive effect by a likelihood of 51% or greater, it would be in one’s best interest to reconsider. In this case, you would subsequently alter your approach and explore another possible course of action to refine your marksmanship. In summary, I don’t recommend fixing something that isn’t broken; however, all shooters have room for improvement, and being proactive will reward anyone dedicated to excellence.

You weren’t supposed to say anything about the movie! Dang it. As for this John Brown guy I have no idea who he is and it doesn’t look as if he is a sass member. This thread makes me feel as though my privacy is invaded. That being said here’s what’s going on now. Matt is currently filming on location near Calgary. I’m not sure about the match in Illinois if he will make it. He said he met some little filly on set. Details on the film I can’t really give until later. It is however a script that Matt wrote and gave to Sly. He liked it so there’s that. As for me I am currently touring near Ajax mountain in Montana. I brought a new gun rig I built for Hank Williams Jr. This is the second one for him. I’m not sure where I will be after this as I haven’t decided yet. We are talking about being in Phoenix around January and stay through the winter. As for my health I’m doing great! As for us not being in the game much, well I don’t know what to say other than we have lots of great things going on in our lives right now and it’s very exciting. We love shooting competitions however it’s great to do other things as well. We’ve been shooting cowboy action for over 18 years and we love it. We have no plans to leave the sport and taking a break for bit isn’t a bad thing. One last comment. The passing of our good friend Colorado Jackson has been absolutely devastating to us. We continue to do our best to deal with this loss. This has been very difficult for both of us. I had no idea how big the hole would leave in our lives. He was very proud of Matt Black and a very true friend that always had our backs even when others didn’t like us for whatever reason. The truth is much better than the rumors by the way. Hope this satisfies those that wonder. Colt
