    I got Kicked off the other site, they could not handle the truth of what is/was happening to the ATA, And NW had me/or booted me off for 2 years,. And they still have yet to learn what was happening, and UNABLE to repair it in the Last 11 years. ATA membership is still declining. Was it the 34 degree 48 yard targets, where everybody got trophies, handing out several 2 yard reductions, trying to increase memberships, and Neil allowing a legal 1340 fps shells w/ his 1250 + or - 90fps BS.

    They took Competetion out of Trapshooting, and they ( EC BOD ) Lacked Honesty & Integrity.

    The 45 degree angle & 52 yard targets, 1200fps shells, which was standard targets & Shells for as long as I could remember when I joined in 1968.

    Handicap shooting was my 1st Choice, I loved Hdcp, and enjoyed Handicaps the Most. I made a lot of money shooting handicaps and Calcuttas over my 47 years, in Competetive Handicap shooting, before having a Aortic Hear Valve in Nov. 2002, and a foot Amputated in April 2014, and in 2014 tearing my left rotator cuff which is still a problem, shot my first Buddy shoot Sunday July 15th, 2018, got into a shootoff which I lost, in 95+ heat & high Humidity, sweating my Ass off.

    But it still felt good shooting my Ljutic for the first time.

    I developed my Longshot Loads w/a lot of experimenting, That Paid off very well.

    I met a very good friend in BIG DON from that state up north. The Ohio State, Michigan Battle still goes on.

    My very good Friend George Snellenberger, was a meat cutter here in Ohio & we shot Trap behind the Strip Club on West Broad st. Those were the good Ole days I will always remember.
