Wearing concealment garment and on crutches:

String One: Draw and engage 3 targets with two shot each. Freestyle. Don't hit the no-shoot. Top Off & Reholster.
String Two: Draw and engage 3 targets with two shot each. Strong Hand Only. Don't hit the no-shoot. Clear and holster.

Ladies and Gents, it was a certified pain in the butt just to sweep the cover garment.

Miggy,
Bad stage planning... a "gamer" would have slipped the crutch up under the shoulder of his vest... oh heck... I'm giving too much away here. I'm done.

Could you just drop the crutches, fall on the ground and shoot from prone?

Chris, guess what I tried to do? Yep..... didn't work so good either when I tried to reach for the gun.  Plus in real life you'd be walking around with an exposed firearm and the idea is concealed.

The Weasel Way turned out to twist the gun side of the body towards the target away from the crutches and then draw.

Kevin: The stage required you shoot with both crutches.

Miggy,
If the strong side crutch is slipper UNDER the vest and tight against the shoulder, it would allow the vest to ride over the crutch, the hand on the crutch would hold the vest over the gun... concealed... but allow a smooth sweep between crutch/vest to reach gun... while crutch remains in proper place.... at least, that's how I would do it, although I have to admit I've never shot the infamous "Double Crutch" stage. But, I'm just gaming... like always. Once a Weasal, always a Weasal... at least that's what Mas tells me.

Chris, you go ahead and find a pair of crutches. You will have fun looking for the proper gaming movement. Grin
