help me remember who it was.....

toad67
A few years back, was there a member here, who had a daughter/granddaughter who was trying out for the US(?) shooting team? I remember sending a few bricks of Federal gold medal 22 ammo to her. She sent back a nice thank you card. Anyone remember this, and if so, how far did she get, is she still doing it??

    Was it BigDaddyJr??  His daughter was on a shooting team.  Here's the only thread I can find that matches: daughter,shooting team,U.S.,,,,,

    This is the discussion I was thinking about, Joe.

    Added: But then I seem to recall another young lady that was on a shooting team... maybe at the University of Alaska in Fairbanks, I think. Memory is too foggy right now, though.

    toad67,

    I think this is the topic you are looking for:


    GB member 'Country Guns' was bidding on a rifle for the young lady to compete with.  Lots more details in the post.

    Yeah, I remember that thread! Many members steeping up to help a junior shooter in need.
    A recent update would be pretty cool, is anyone still in touch with Country Guns or know how the story has gone since the then?

    If you go to the top of the thread, and look at the third post, it mentions that they don't need ammo, so that must not be the one. From what I can remember, it was a younger girl, 10-13 or so, that was practicing for a team, not sure what level. I remember sending her two or three bricks of Federal Gold Medal 22 ammo. She then sent me a hand written thank you card. It has been awhile back though. Thanks for trying though fella's......

    I laughed reading BDJ's thread. He sure got a hard time from the resident smartazzes back then. 
    He mentioned he would match the donations...wonder how much that cost him?  One guy said a $300 check was on the way.
