PTL

Whether the need is great or small, there is power in prayer, especially when God's people raise their voices together.

PTL

Post by longtooth »

This is a wonderful praise report.

It has been almost a yr since Mom did any major shooting w/ me. She had cataracts & pretty bad. Right eye was worse & just could not see the sights. Left eye has been dominate for at least 8yrs.
She did OK at close range point & shoot but target accuracy was the pits.

2 weeks ago she got the last one out & is able to see again.

Right eye is back to dominate.

She went to our training range for the 1st time yesterday evening & had a ball.
79 & still loves it.

First time she aimed w/ right eye in yrs. Little rusty to start.
we worked on grip some & her last 14 rds at 7yds were in 3.5 tall X 2.5 wide.

Fantastic news!

With accuracy like that, so quickly after the surgery, imagine her groups after a few more trips to the range!

All guns have at least two safeties. One's digital, one's cognitive. In other words - keep the digit off the trigger until ready to fire, and THINK. Some guns also have mechanical safeties on top of those. But if the first two don't work, the mechanical ones aren't guaranteed. - me

LT, I must admit I hesitated about clicking on this thread until just now
because it's usually not good news when posted in the prayer section.

It was great to see GOOD NEWS !

I'm happy for your mom. Tell her we're all thinking about her. :tiphat:
