Not really new, but out of the lurk?

Hi everyone!

So, I've been that quiet guy "in the back of the class" since 2009. I don't post much on any of the forums that I have a log-in too... but like to listen and learn. Cars & trucks, rock and ice climbing, knives, bicycles, hunting, fishing, skiing.... seems like my approach is the same.... Listen and learn, like any good student. That's what I've been up to here, and it probably won't change much... unless I see an opportunity to help.

I'm a mechanical engineer in the optics industry. I live in Tucson, and have a good bit of experience in all of AZ, as well as the neighboring states. Hit me up if you're in AZ and have similar interests... it's always great to meet people and share some range time, hunts, etc.

Cheers, Mark.
 
Forgot some details about my interest in shooting....

I'm a hunter by nature... from an early age. Years of chasing Coues and elk here in AZ have motivated me to get the most out of my rifles, and more importantly, myself. I'm also an engineer, so the science and math of ballistics holds my fascination. No competitions yet, but that looks like a great way to get more practice in, so just might try it out. If anyone shoots the 22LR match at the Pima Pistol Club let me know... or I will probably just show up some day soon!
