I'm asking about the people that paid for their targets, still at the shoot & did not shoot. These same people shoot the next day. Look at the shoot...
Speaking of Linn Creek, is it normal to have so many people enter that did not shoot? What's up with that?
The ATA has died. Hasn't been buried yet but it is starting to stink.
For you guys that just got off of the short buss: 1 S = event 1 Singles 874 is the number of entries from 2019 570 is the number of entries from...
Attendance so far, down a little: 2019 1 S 2 H 3 D 4 S 5 H 6 D 7 S 8 H 9 D 10 S 11 H 12 D 13 H 14 D 15 S 16 H 17 D 18 S 19 H 20 D 21 S 22 D 23 H 24 H...
You might want to check on that! Last I knew they had a $400,000 loan.
The first time I went to a 200 target event they had 12 program traps. Not knowing any better I took eight boxes of shells to the starting trap.
About 30 years ago I shot with Pete S. @ the old Salt Lake Gun Club. He broke 100 from the 27. His gun was a Savage auto loader with a re-chambered...
Yes, my wife had a set back in the day.
Don't know. Allem did one of mine and it is still going strong thirty years later. Same for one Wilkinson did for me more than 30 years ago.
Thanks for the replies Roger & WPT. Lots of the Browning Trap line comes with factory porting. I have had several barrels ported and have bought...
Serious question for WPT, Roger, Smokintom, and any other anti-porting guys. How many barrels have you had ported? How many shells through said...
Hey I did go to a Frank Hoppe clinic and never missed a target at the clinic. We only shot 200-250 targets and I wouldn't shoot any more handicap...
In Elysburg, before Gene Anastiso put us on the bank system we skipped nine or ten traps for each sub-event.
Back in those days I was shooting with a guy that had two squads for every event (so did several other guys). We had to wait at the central entry...
Back in the day. I was shooting with Woody Brown & Frank Little and Woody pulled the squads for us. One year we shot the corner because no one would...
ME! Back in the day I turned down several guys that wanted to hire me for personal instruction.
Wrong.
Hey Dawg, If you are there this weekend, ask the new president & delegate if they plan to ever draw for banks. If they do I might come back to the...
Sorry Mr. C, that was an error. Do you know if he shoots the banks he wants, as in prima donna?
Hey Mr. G, I have no knowledge of the wives & girl friends problems. But I do know this back when we had 312 squads shooting all squading was handled...
That is why I said BC was no cost.
I guess they have to many people on the payroll. Kind of funny that someone is worth well over $100,000 to manage 23 days of shooting. BC (before...
What went wrong with the PSSA. not long ago they had lots of cash and no debt. Now they are a sinking ship.
Hey Zing, I just asked who's idea it was it for sporting clays? I guess no one wants to take responsibility for it. The facts are PSSA has a debt...
Question for anyone that knows: Who's wet dream is PSSA with Sporting Clays?
And the search for underweight shooters continues.
Using Dawg's terminology I'll label the new group. Bold names are re-elected. President: Kenneth Darroch prima donna Vice- Pres: Larry Shade...
Hey Dave, my wife is at the shoot and can't find out if they have ATA trophies or do not have them. A friend won an out of state singles trophy...
Update on the trophies: Frank Pascoe donated some of his medals for trophies for the last days of the State Shoot. Be sure to thank Frank for the...
No trophies are displayed in the display case. I'm getting conflicting reports from the shoot. But all reports state: four boxes of shells.
Just learned that they have no trophies for the PA State Shoot. Wonder why they didn't announce that? They are giving away some shells and a gift...
Romer has it that they are not giving out any trophies for this shoot. Some shells I paper to shoot at a later shoot. I must have missed the...
So far about the same as last year.
I like the Winchester tapered rib models better.
Nice gun Family Guy. I started trap shooting with a M 12 that I bought in a pawn shop in Lawton OK in 1970. That gun had the best patterns I ever...
Hey A.H., nothing anyone can do to make a < 95% 16 yard average shooter completive from any yardage. BTW, A. H. is someone's initials.
I found this interesting: Name: ROBERT MUNSON ATA # :2809898 Yardage: 26 IMO, Bob Munson is one of the all time greats.
Hey Eric, still shooting the same gun?
True story, I never shot a clay target before 1967. Back then we were playing with muzzle loaders & a friend wanted to shoot some "rocks" after work...
First two digits are the year. So.....57 is the year, seems some guns had the digits reversed some years meaning the gun was made in 1975. It surely...
For 16 yards age has noting to do with it unless you are dead. I have been shooting trap since 1972 and had my best singles average in 2018 at the...
Maybe it was only 100 caps followed by 200 singles. I do know that I broke the singles and after 8 years of no 200s I had three that month. Hogans,...
I remember shooting the Hogan in Thurmont when we shot 200 caps & 200 singles on Friday with no problems.
Back in the day @ the golden west they would buss in the people from the local mission. This was when puller and setters had to actually pull & set....
Answering Brad's question. BRAD DYSINGER said: ↑ I'm just speculating now but when does the Illinois $15 minimum wag law take affect? Maybe this is...
IL Effective 7-1-2010 $8.25 Effective 1-1-2020 $9.25 Effective 7-1-2020 $10.00 Next year will be up $2.00 over this year.
Sounds like San Antonio. Last time I was there some traps (maybe 1 or 2) threw Bios. Seems they just put a few boxes in a few traps to keep it...
PA shoots 9 days OH only shoots 6 days.
PA had 12,431 in 2001 & 10,223 in 2019 But had 13,314 in 2006
