Jim wants to know why he has been demoted back to the C class.
He says he may be horrible, but he isn't going backwards.

And if the error was on his lovely wife's part when she filled out the paperwork, please feel free to place the blame elsewhere. And do not tell him either!!! LOL

Noted and fixed. Jim is now in Masters/A's/ and 190's. His estrogen level just wasn't high enough for women's.

Get your Mom & Dad's, cousin's, sister's, brothers, friends, co-worker's, sign them up slap a kilt on them and lets get this thing over the hill.

Irvin and Coach Greg on the ball - scores were in before we even made it back to Texas! Killer work from a great crew.

Alright Ladies and Gentlemen.


Thank you all for making the Iron Thistle VIII a huge success. Its takes all of you for it to work.

The biggest news of the day besides the PR's set on the field of dreams.

It has weighed, measured, and confirmed Jo Dan Minnick set a new World Record in the light hammer <200 class of 122' 9". Congratulations JD. I will get with the powers that be and get your amazing throw on the list.
