PA' facility is paid for and they are debt free.

I was thinking of a "world class" course like we shot on back in the '80s. It was on 3500 acres and took an hour or two just to walk the course....

Hope the people that lives there doesn't mind when they start shooting in their back yard. [IMG]

I thought those "blue pills" you guys take make your vision worse.

My favorite orange targets were the Great Eastern black rims.

Back in the day when I traveled with an ATA VP he got limited expenses to travel to some shoots. My understanding was the ATA President had unlimited...

The first time I shot green was in Reno and I broke a 96 from the 27. Had 98 in the championship that year. I only remember green for one year at the...

#1. Green is better. About 15 years ago Hegins got a load of green targets. Scores there were better than ever, but it was one load and done. The...

If you are not AA 25+yards AA you might be shooting the wrong colored targets. When PA threw full black rimed targets they had more 100's in doubles...

News flash for the PSSA from someone that has walked & surveyed every square foot of the home grounds. On second thought I'll just ask a question....

Hey Brad, time for another Little quote "don't listen to Dysinger". He was talking about the "head games" some thought you played while waiting to...

Summary of the PA Plan: take trapshooters money and use it to build skeet fields.

I think everyone shoots the same banks in "sporting clays".

The GAH had 3816 shooters in 2002 and 2003 in 2017. That is a 47.5% reduction over 15 years. In 2032 can we expect only 1051 shooters for the GAH?...

prima donnas don't shoot early so you might see a squad of peons in the early or late flights.

Just for clarification: 408 shooters max on Wed (about 81 full squads) & 742 on Thursday (about 148 full squads, I stand corrected) . Maybe they use...

Just for clarification: Wed = 80 squads, Thur = 125, Gun day = 250, Sat = 200 & Sunday = 160. , BTW bank 1 sucks, as does 5, 6, 7 & 8. I wouldn't...

The Grand with have slightly more shooters than the OH or PA state shoots. My prediction is that entries will be down again this year.

Here is how it works, if you are connected. She holds your cards or written down numbers until GOD opens a new flight. Then she squads your squad on...

For those that don't get to Elysburg much. Here is how I've seen it work. You ask one of the girls to watch for a new flight to open and you give her...

Mr. Dead Pair who ever you are. I most certainly squaded for the state shoot at the "customer service desk". She squads lots of people and if you...

Hey Rodger, 30 years ago I shot Vegas & Reno. Many eastern shooters would not go to Reno because of "what you speak". They pulled the pill one day...

Oh yes, I've been shooting the SW Grand & they scramble the banks there.

I'll type slower for those with reading comprehension problems. Woody Brown pulled a squad for us for 5 or 6 years. Rively had a squad for (I think)...

I will agree that banks 8 & 9 are easy to get. The others not so easy. Now for some corrections to your comments: I at most shot the 1986-1992 state...

I can only speak for myself. I have shot every PA state shoot since 1973. For years I shot every shoot they had in Elysburg. Now I only shoot the...

What banks did you get? It is easy to get the banks that very few want.

No

The walk would have done you good!

Hey Brad, we'll never bring back the good old days. I think I remember someone paying Jean Greb to stand in line and pull squads. Gene Anastasio saw...

Late 80's thru early 90's I was connected and we would pull our PA squads before the squading opened. FWIW, only one squad was pulled before the...

I did notice that quite a few squads of name shooters were already pre-squadded for every event when the site opened. That is a problem for me. Let's...

Hey GB, The shooter you reference was in fact a AAA shooter. Junior Gold is not a class it's a category for shooters 18-22 years old. He is in the...

Just like they do in OH. Ha Ha Ha! I saw a new low this year even for PA. Now the new shooter girl friends get prime banks at prime time. PA Trap...

The winner broke 1057.

He's not the first. I can remember three big guns that got vacations, two of them life time: Earl, Pete & McCorkel

On August 22, 1890, the Pennsylvania State Sportsmen's Association was organized at the Crosby House in Corry, PA. This meeting was set in motion by...

When?

My guy told me Monday that the prices came down. Guess I'll go get the summer supply before they go up.

Correction: 54 = 91.48% of 3450 first year with my second silver seitz 27 yards mostly Fed light 7.5 papers 30 = 98.24% of 3300 BT 99 singles mostly...

54 = 91.48% of 3450 first year with my second silver seitz 27 yards 40 = 98.24% of 3300 BT 99 singles 44 = 96.02% of 4800 doubles

Forgot to add. When I was on the circuit I would go to my local club & shoot practice to stay warmed up for the money shoots. Lots of the money stuff...

Just speaking for myself, Twenty + years ago I traveled 100's of miles on a weekend to attend shoots in PA, MD & VA. I did this 10 or 11 months of...

26 @ the start. Now 45 years later (and close to a million targets) the thrill is gone.

I think "Sparta"!

He has worked at Silver dollar the past several years,

I saved my last box of those green "shipped to the house" shells. After two moves in the past 15 years they got lost. IMO, the good stuff couldn't be...

I think he was the first 27 yarder to tie for the Grand American Handicap Championship (99). When I started shooting in 1972 Frank Little moved to...

When I started shooting (45+) years ago the 27 yard line was a big deal. Generally not more than a squad of long yardage shooters at small local...
