<br />
There was a shooter in MD that had a gun that was malfunctioning on the line.   And previously.  In that case the complainer got suspended.  Maybe that is why there are no complaints filed?<br />

Just wondering?]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[There are large shoots following the Grand American, such as the Cardinal Classic, and PSSA&#039;s Summer Championships, both within a week of completion of the Grand, and both with declining attendance. In PSSA&#039;s case it&#039;s gone from a 5 day shoot to just 3 days and squadding just 6 banks. I&#039;m thinking that if the new ATA target year began when the Grand ended, it might boost attendance at those shoots. Now they&#039;re trying ti entice shooters with nicer/better prizes.

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I can remember when we had the option to play the yardage group.  Top scores were by yardage.   If the Back Fence Shootout was such a good idea why isn&#039;t Ohio offering that option?  It is the same thing right?<br />
<br />
Added money could be on yardage.  The 20 yard shooter putting money down against the 27 yard shoot is a suckers bet. <br />
<br />
They can get 600 shooters to play the option?   That was just the 27 yardage group.  Wasn&#039;t that option one of the reasons we registered targets?  What am I missing?]]></content:encoded>

The Grand American Handicap struggles to get 1800 shooters.  An Ohio event once had 5,000. <br />
<br />
The largest trapshooting event is now the SCTP National Championship held at the Cardinal Shooting Center.<br />
