Ohio State shoot here we come!
LadyT, please inform all of us where you stand. My guess is you never made it past the 20. Please do not include wannabe yardage!
Facts sir-just the facts!
Our PA delegate knows where I stand-just like more people will vote Democrat to maintain being on the government dole!
Just a little late research finds PA has 91 active shooters standing on the 27 while MS has 3-not enough to fill a squad. Anyone in a betting mood...
Gee, same week as the Ohio State Shoot-that should be a tremendous success. Anyone taking bets now which shoot draws more shooters? I suppose it...
Spears still available. $200 delivered! [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I have several. One Spears and one unknown manufacturer. Both as new. $175-$200. PM for additional info!
Going from entry (money) collectors to actual shoot managers takes time. These guys are way out of their league!
It took way longer to proof read those programs, get them to the printer and lick stamps than our fearless leaders ever believed. You can see shoot...
The new shoot management is currently in training and that information will be made available sometime in June for the May shoot-patience!
They're probably busy getting the shoot program ready for the printer and licking stamps for the envelopes!
Word is one of the locals posted a hand written shoot program on the gate!
One month away and the programs were mailed out-not. I suppose we should assume the shoot program will be the same as last year-or maybe not. Oh...
Not a single one. Well, we did have one participant from IL. at last years PA State shoot. I guess you could say they're killing us. 80 squads would...
Maybe a name change in needed. Only 152 shooters from states other than the 357 from IL. participated last year!
Valmet, Krieghoff and Charles Daly had lifetime warrantees too. Good luck with those!
If you expect to win either class without the ability to shoot 100 and 200's stay home!
Yup, and I remember the time he tried shooting that DB-81 and couldn't hit the side of a barn. I suspect the targets may have been wider then too. Of...
Sure, harder targets were harder for Frank. Unfortunately, they were twice as hard for the average Joe. Frank handled anything thrown at him as...
Voice activated systems made the life of a 27 yd. shooter much easier than a few degrees on the angle setting. Some of us still remember standing on...
The Kay Ohye I know shot most of his targets on the East coast. I suggest most of our clubs followed the mandate that year. Anyone know any that...
Can I prove it-no-neither did I ever ask him. He sure never moved his muzzle much!
I once watched Frank Little deal with the "opposites" which is what I called those targets that were nowhere near where they were supposed to be. He...
Roger, you're sort of right. Most could be read but not with the accuracy without interrupters. Let's just say those good trap readers were able to...
The only thing shortened was the Doubles. I'd call that a mistake!
Kay Ohye's average went UP .5% the year 3-hole targets were mandatory again. I'll betcha more than a few wannabe 27 yd. shooters went down too. If...
Voice systems made the 27 yd.line easier while the big dogs were still quite adept at reading targets even though many of the old Western handsets...
I had a discussion with that old ATA club manager today. He kinda chuckled when someone suggested speeding up the targets will take down the big...
As the late Gilda Radner often said "never mind"!
I still believe more than 7 shooters will be attending the Grand in August-but then again-maybe not. I'd say there's more profit in a bachelor party...
Well, they've been trying to rope in the vendors to sign 5 year leases. I know one major one that said no way. If the turnout drops even more they...
When I shot with Frank Little he told me I was a natural shooter and didn't need to attend most of his clinic. If he was still alive today he might...
No one would remember mine-they're all dead!
Complete with strippers-again?
Sounds like an "organized group" is either 3 shooters looking for a "special event" to just get in some targets or a bachelor party!
More than they need all those trapfields at Sparta!
Based on what fantasy?
Not long enough to be any good!
Please throw all your STS's on the ground. Your gun club will love you!
I offered that suggestion to a long term (45 year) ATA trap club manager in PA today. He's already broken numerous 200's, a 100 from the 27 and will...
Just offer to supply those obscure smaller clubs in equally obscure small states with some driveway chalk to mark a few lines beyond the 27. Then...
butterfly, I doubt you even shoot trap. If so, please give us your ATA averages so I can be called a bit unknowing. I'm sure you believe you could be...
Terribly wrong on the first. So a full choke is necessity even if the shooter doesn't have one. If all showed up it would be 50-0. I can't wait for...
Targets in the past were much easier to break. Since automatic traps came into use the composition was changed making them a bit harder so the newer...
Rieger shot paper shells with cardboard wads and soft shot. My guess is ammo quality alone-not ability- slowed down his scoring. Cost offset will be...
Most Sporting Clays courses tend to throw MIDIS a bit closer to the shooter and are designed to make the shooter believe they're farther away. If...
The game was designed with wider angles that the better shooters knew exactly where they were going since trap reading was the accepted practice of...
Surprise, carrying too high an average from your current yardage and you'll be stuck there for another 1,000 targets. Bigger surprise, I took a 3...
I did watch a shooter at the Southern Grand attempt to shoot Doubles. It didn't work too often!
