I am still going to Texas and I am still interested in meeting up with bloggers in the area, but the open ended send me an email lets see about getting together became a bit of a logistical nightmare, so I am going to try to set something up to make it easier on everyone. I am talking with a few folks and I will let you know if we are able to work something out.
As is the case pretty much everywhere FPF Training has seen an increase in the number of brand new shooters signing up for John’s shooting courses. As a way to help prepare them for the 2 day courses John has decided to bring back his very popular Handgun 101 course. From the newsletter…
Handgun 101 is back! These courses will be presented on Thursday night at Sharpshooters in Springfield. See http://www.fpftraining.
Keads who not only has never asked for anything, but also is beyond generous with his time and money is asking for a little something. I am going to repost his entire request here, but please go to his site and leave a comment…
Can You Help?
I have never asked for anything here. I am making an exception for a friend of mine now. His name is Tyler and I really don’t want to say that he works for me. Technically he does, but I prefer to say that we work together.
He is a Deacon in his church, teaches Sunday School, a devoted Husband, Father to two adopted Daughters, and a Grandfather to 1.5 Grand kids. His Family is tightly knit and his Brother and Father live within walking distance from his house.
Our professional relationship can simply be summed up in the fact that the man is extremely talented and works hard to make me look good. On a personal note there is this from my Blog.
He is riding a bicycle to the beach. From here to raise money for MS research. It is a haul. MS has touched his Family and he is committed to this. Not bad for a 50 year old. He continues to amaze me. His story about his motivation is here. Me, I’m using the Company matching program to double my donation.
If you can, anything you can give would be greatly appreciated. If you can’t, I will send you a picture of Tyler as he is now riding a bike to work. Its not pretty =) !
Thanks!
Would this help any:

Oh gosh, that would be great. Unfortunately, I am not coming until October.
Well, if you’re in the Dallas area in October, give any of us a shout, I’m sure we can set up some range time if you like. I’m always up for meeting new gunbloggers.
Hear, hear!
I will do that!!
Thank You! You are very kind to help.

Done and done… You’ll go to Texas, but you won’t come shoot with us? What’s up with that??? 🙂
Ugh, that one hurt:) I am desperate to hook up with you guys…just have to match schedules…your travel and my work makes it a bit of a challenge:)
I know, but I couldn’t resist 🙂
What part of Texas, and what part of October?
Near Irving and I am not positive about the dates. I will be there the 12-15 for sure, but those days are booked, so I am either going to come a few days before that or a few days after or maybe both:)
Smack dab in the middle of hunting season. If I have free time, I’ll be in the hunting blind. sorry.
Well, I hope you get what your aiming at.
Awww, well that does suck. That Guy and I will probably be in the blind on the lease together then. That’s many an hour from us. Too bad you couldn’t maybe swing by to shoot some and try for a pig. Unless it is the third week of October, but we’ll be up on the Oklahoma border in the middle of nowhere then.
