Kind of a different "show me yours" post... (I guess its all e-peen anyway...)

I was up in the attic today and saw a box labeled trophies. So, I pulled it down to reminisce. I use to have a wall of my 'accomplishments'. We had kids and mine were replaced by those of the children.

Aside from the ribbons, each of the brass plates were attached to either the traditional trophy or a wooden plaque. For space and weight considerations for packing, I peeled the engraved plates off (Then I gave most of the wooden plaques and trophies to a struggling gun club to re-use). Most of these are pre-'80 (pre-kids ). I competed once in 1993 for kicks. Took a trohpy in my division too Most of them are from pistol matches, but there are several rifle ribbons and plaques. Unfortunately, I can't see well enough anymore to give even the old farts class a run.
