'Little Ruby' SASS #84284
'Little Ruby' is Jimmy's niece (his sister's daughter) and lives in Florida. She has been spending summers with her uncle since she was six years old and hanging out in Vermont, New Hampshire and in the Catskills region of New York going boating ,fishing, hiking and shooting.
With safety being the number one concern she waited until she was 11 years old before she started dry firing and getting ready for her first shoot. She started with .22LR Colts and a Winchester .22LR rifle and a Stoeger shotgun.
When she was twelve she asked if she could work in the shop in the summer. She soon learned how to strip and clean Ruger revolvers all on her own as well as answering the phones and keeping the shop clean. She shot her first match when she was twelve and started cleaning guns at a few of the bigger events we would travel to. Last year she worked up to 12 hrs a day in the race trailer working on Ruger revolvers.
This year Jimmy as well as Big Mike aka 'Illustrated Man' traveled to Florida to the 2012 SASS Florida State Championships "Last Stand" in order to give 'Little Ruby' a chance to compete in her junior class in her own state before she turns 17 and enters the Cowgirl category. She shot a great match and was awarded the 2012 Florida State Junior Female State Championship.
