Hey guys he said he was from Snipershide, if we're gonna get him to stick around we gotta make him feel at home.

[snipershide attitude on]
So Mr. Shakey Yankee, are you really a Yankee?  If so why does your profile put you in Georgia?  Can you prove that you are indeed a Yankee?  And what about the shakey part?  How ya gonna prove that?  Huh??  That's what I thought. Yep, Thought So
[/snipershide attitude off]
 
Welcome to The O.T. forums by SWFA and more importantly thank you for your service. Salute

Wow!  Thanks for the warm welcome.  OK to answer a few questions.  I am originally from Michigan, Uncle has been moving me around for 17 years.  Currently stationed at Ft. Benning, GA with the USAMU.
 
Got the handle Shakey Yankee when I was shooting Cowboy Action.  The name just stuck.  The Yankee part was a gimme being from the North and shooting with the Southern boys.  The Shakey part came from me not being able to hold a pistol steady due to my caffeine & nicotine addictions.  LOL!
 
Not to shabby at calling coyotes, though I don't have much time to do it.  I did write and get an article published in Predator Xtreme magazine awhile back.
 
I have a few pics, but here are a couple of my favorites! 
First up is a custom built Remmy .308 with a USO ST-10
Here is one for all the yote hunters out there
