Thanks, Gary, You are doing a fine job on this. I've shot wobble doubles and it's not nearly as tricky as it sounds, but I try not to be an instant "timing" shooter on that first bird. The second is no problem. Rather, it's no more of a problem than it usually is for a slowish shooter like me.

Pat trap throws wobble doubles now.You can buy it now..No need to wait till October for the Mec machine.

 

Rather than "buying it now," I'd spend a while on market research. Ask the clubs in your area who have wobble traps how much use they get. We have a couple at Metro and my estimate is that they spend far less than 1% of their target-throwing time using their wobble talents. The rest of the time they just throw regular targets and are , no matter what PAT says, way more trouble to set (vertically) than the nice toothed spiral on the others. I can ask a scorer to please lift them up two clicks and I will get it; were I to ask for that amount of change on a wobble I wouldn't even know how to say it - or guess what I would end up with!

A turnbuckle would be better yet, in my opinion, but you can't have everything and I suppose the fact that no one has ever produced a turnbuckle system as an improvement should tell me that someone has done market research on that it and found it would be a loser.

Just how does a turnbuckle adjust it's self on a Wobble trap, Your speaking of a fixed Doubles trap.

No Doc, You disconnect the vertical motor and then use a turn buckle for height adjustment. The same as on a standard machine.
The same way you did it on a 1524 Win. machine.
Neil, I do not think any one in the trap machine business is trying to improve any of the machines any more. Roger C.
