Well, I haven't bought MIDIS for quite a few years when I ran a Sporting Clays course so I can't argue that one. So making the targets smaller so...

So instead of needing 3 pellet strikes on a standard sized target you'll now need the same amount on a smaller target to achieve a break. So that...

Does managing an ATA affiliated gun club for nearly 20 years account for anything? Our organization paid plenty in ATA fees!

49-51 isn't much different than 48-52. Three hole targets have been gone for many years in the East. Voice activated systems were the primary factor...

Yes/no-but mostly yes!

If recoil is an issue there are various devices that can minimize it. Next thing is a semi-auto which is really tame with 1 1/8oz. loads. It's way...

MIDIS are considerably more expensive than standards. Automatic traps could not easily be retrofitted to throw MIDIS if at all!

LadyT, surprise, my 92.00% handicap average in 1976 was 33rd. high in the US. Not bad for a young puppy with an 1100 and many of which were probably...

First suggest how all those automatics in operation could suddenly be modified to shoot midis. I see you never set foot in a traphouse. Trust me, a...

I didn't petition the ATA for any of my yardage and actually earned every one. You don't get cheap yardage in PA. Well, I did get a .5 yd. punch back...

That's easy. Any small, obscure state that offers a Junior Gold trophy!

Stan claims to be good with numbers but he's already off 100% on one of his statistics!

Just so happens I actually earned the 27 and shot there 10x longer than you've been shooting. So please tell us your handicap average and from what...

Please tell us your average from your real yardage and we'll let you know where you really belong! By the way, 4 20's out of 25 is an 80 and marks...

Maybe you can explain why an idea that was so good a few years ago suddenly became so bad-contrary to the data from Sir Neil's charts and graphs. I'm...

I was kinda counting on a few $1,000 checks headed my way but it seems like the challengers simply ran out of testosterone-not that they possessed...

oleolliedawg is not good at insights but great with percentages. Let's just say someone is 100% off on his!

Wow, I'm impressed. And I thought I was good with numbers and percentages. I do come from a long line of bookmakers and pool sellers though. My...

Now you know I don't charge for upsetting those who like cheap yardage, soft targets, hero worshippers who enjoy handing over their weekly grocery...

I never charge for advice but the o me's do add up!

I believe I met Susan at the FL State St shoot this year. Pretty lady and I'd trust buying anything from her!

The Silver Dollar had all the Red, Green and Clay Dot with a smattering of Promo needed. That was last week!

Run far, far away!

I think you got the "parta" right. Parta history!

Well, they did change the earned yardage table back and forth a few times. See, they did do something!

The ATA doesn't give free yardage past the 25. Maybe they should have petitioned the ATA to change that rule to say anyone who requests a move to the...

Neither did any shooters from Miss. attend the Southern Grand. FL. must have been too far away to try and get some real yardage. Pure stupidity!

90 and sometimes even lower!

A .25 call could have moved any and all back to the 25 yd. line. What's worse is the votes to make it a new rule. More than a few were asleep at the...

Yup, we threw many 2.5 hole targets too. When the 3-hole threads wore out those old WWII boys who wouldn't throw away anything simply drilled and...

Hand pullers took care of back yardage shooters scoring all by themselves. The three hole rule was disregarded for decades at most clubs. One of the...

Nope, the year I believe was 1996 when 3-hole targets were mandated. PSSA put all their traps in the 3-hole while I can't vouch for any others. My...

Kay Ohye's handicap average went UP .5% the year 3-hole targets were mandated!

The two yard reduction was merely an attempt to get more shooters competitive. All it did was kick the tin can farther down the road and hurt the...

hunter44 joined the "other" site in 1998. That would make him around 40 yo and a bit old to be shooting in this one. My understanding is he's...

I think we heard many times the reason Trapshooting at the high school level is successful is because it appeals to the many individuals who are...

My shuffleboard team at the local bar kicked major league butt last night winning all three games. Some of these guys must be real athletes with...

Heck, some of my buddies might think they're athletes because they shoot bar room darts. It takes plenty of stamina to shoot darts effectively for...

Sure, just hand a 9 lb. shotgun over to a 200 lb. 14 yo, tell him /her they need pick up that thing 100 times today and call 'em athletes? Heck, many...

"athlete"n, a person trained to do physical exercises of agility and strength, especially one who participates or competes in games requiring...

85% of the high scores at a recent Satellite Grand were broken from the 27. When I started shooting a score in the 90's from the fence got you a pat...

If you spent enough time at the 27 yd. line pre-voice systems you'd realize the biggest enemy of a great score was the pullers!

Way too much fact ignorance here. Voice activated systems made the game far easier-that's a fact. Better guns with adjustable features made the game...

Who cares. I've only been shooting since 1963. And you?

You could set 'em in any hole you wanted back in the old days and the best shooters either straightened out the angles or shot 'em anyway since they...

It sure seems like quite a few union employees will be sitting on their duffs most of the year instead of collecting unemployment compensation. So...

The place lost money every year in it's existence. How does re-opening it again suddenly make it profitable?

But millions of $$ pledged by an MOU to keep a gun range open in an obscure part of the state! We shall see!
