The Traditions Continue....

It has been three years since the last Highland Hunt!  Three years!!!!  A new home, a new business, a new group of people - and finally, Sir Knight and I mustered the gumption to host another Highland Hunt!  

Actually, our Highland Hunt was the second shoot we hosted this year.  Our first shoot was our church's Men's Retreat shoot.  And since we got the tent out of storage and gathered tables and chair, we thought we should take the opportunity to have friends and family over and host the Highland Hunt in the true Highlands!!  Although we didn't dress up as we usually do, we did cook up a feast and had an incredible afternoon of fun, fellowship and firearms!!  

And now we pick up where we left off!!

Clays and shot stacked high


A thing of beauty!

The calm before the store (it had been raining and we hadn't put the chairs up around the fire-pit yet)

Some of the vehicles


They even let us girls shoot!!!

  3. We loved the pictures (and of course hearing from you guys). Thanks for sharing. Oh I can just smell the gunpowder.... And the aroma of Hoppes No. 9 for dessert. Life's simple pleasures. And what an awesome family.

  9. I remember seeing your oldest daughter in a picture at one of your earlier Highland Feasts with a skirt, tactical like one. Do you know where she purchased it? I like to shoot myself but am a skirt wearer and would like to find one with belt loops to wear when I accompany my husband to the range. Thank you.
