Ollie you must really hate trapshooting! Many clubs have quit throwing registered targets and many of the ones left are only treading water so you...
I have read both books and really enjoyed both. I really think that any one interested in trapshooting could enjoy both. My first memories of the...
This is sad news. Kirk was a great competitor and just a good person to be around. Another trapshooting friend gone, but I will always have good...
I don't remember the exact year, but I attended the first state shoot at the new Michigan home grounds. I believe it was 68 or 69 and it was the...
Brad, back many years ago when you were young and a few years before that when I was young it seemed like the old folks who were shooting were able...
Flyers, are they now or how soon will they be added (semi auto shotguns)? If it comes to this it would put quite a hurt on trapshooting in general...
I agree that cutting the entry for the Lewis would have about the same results as cutting your throat. Don's figures compute out to 61% entered the...
Brad shame on you, you have just brought to light a part of your being that I would have never guessed existed. LOL Dave Berlet
96 total entries. Over 1100 pounds of sausage. About 125 pounds in sandwiches and in the kraut, about 200 pounds for the special events and over 800...
Joe you bring up some very good points. Our club (Moulton Gun Club) is also a membership club. Normally 250 to 350 memberships sold each year with an...
Originally, as in many years ago as I understand the Zone Shoots were started to give something back to the shooters for supporting the OSTA. Then...
Just around 5 miles west of Wapakoneta, Ohio. About 1/2 mile south of U S 33 on Bay road. Good targets, good food, and hopefully good weather. Hope...
47, my life membership certificate is dated September 19,1958. The 1st paragraph states that in the event of liquidation a distribution of its assets...
Is this really Ole Ollie or is it Jonny one note? Dave Berlet
The Grudge Match was quite a time in Ohio trapshooting history. It was amazing the amount of interest it brought to our Ohio State Trapshoot. The...
So sorry to hear. Still traded emails with Fred. Another of my trapshooting friends lost. Our condolences to Eileen and the girls. Dave & Sandy...
Farmer Frank, As you mention John Hall do you remember his corn stand? He would have a blackboard hanging on the side with shooters names on it...
Ollie, maybe Frank just lied to you??? Dave Berlet
Thanks Eric, maybe History Buff could supply us with a list of 200's in the Clay Target. I had several, but I know I wasn't close to being on top. If...
Don who is the individual with the most 200's in the Clay Target Championship? Dave Berlet
Roger you probably shpuld ease up on the poor ole dawg after all he is a legend in his own mind. Also since he mentioned it I don't believe I ever...
Ollie I'm glad you mentioned bowling. Their handicap changes as their average changes. In fact your handicap can change every week. Just because you...
Roger. I am to the point that i am believing the ole dog doesn't comprehend that trapshooting is no different than racing in that the faster you...
Bob, on the traps that we shot doubles on the targets were not to wide and they were definitely too short. In my opinion one of the most detrimental...
Saturday in the championship singles a good friend of mine Louie Morgan reached a lofty milestone breaking his 100th 200 straight. He followed that...
I remember the couple, I don't remember the name. If my memory is correct they were a couple from Maryland and he ran a filling station. Very...
Roger, just remember ole ollie doesn't let the facts get in the way of his biden like stories.All that he needs now is kamala's cackle. Dave Berlet
Ollie with your take on things you gotta be a full fledged biden democrat. When you lay out a field to use a t bar and a 50yd stake you need to shoot...
After Brads input on the target setting for the Buckeye the targets were much better at the State Shoot this year than they had been the past several...
John I agree. I don't understand why anyone who voted for him or supports democrats would be two faced enough to show their face at a trapshoot as...
butterly since you mentioned trinkets for trophies I looked at the 1964 grand program and looked at the clay target championship trophy list and the...
As a young man with no prior tournament director experience in my opinion he did a pretty good job seeing over some rather large trapshoots. So now...
I first remember meeting Daro at I believe the 1965 Ohio State Shoot. He was a member of the Air Force shooting team and Daro and I had the only 2...
A question for Trap 3. Do you or anyone else know if there was a printed program for the 1943-44-45 Grand American. Maybe HB would even have an...
I am just wondering if any Ohio shooter ever attained their grand slam by getting a 200 at the Ohio zone shoot for their last leg? Years ago at many...
Jeff maybe it's no big deal or maybe it's a very big deal? Maybe available money is no big deal to you, but it is to many participants of our...
I believe that at least some one else also made a combo trigger for the model 12 that you could change to either release or pull by moving the safety...
As I understand it target prices are going up $3.00 per hundred for the Ohio State Shoot and have been hearing that daily fees are also going to take...
Probably too much insider trading.!!! Dave Berlet
After the gov. took over the place went broke. Even subsidies couldn't save the place with the gov. in charge. Dave Berlet
Just got to say hi and welcome you to the site. Now we just have to get Ben on board. Always good to get another HOF inductee on this forum. Dave...
Just be careful and put the dense part of your pattern on the target and not the hole part and you should get good results. I think that what we need...
I agree with the decision for 100 singles at the state zone for several reasons, but I disagree with doing away with all 200 target singles programs....
Don shame on you! Don't you know that those model 12's are just like the mailman they deliver in wind- snow- rain- heat - cold no matter the weather...
The NCAA having 3 all American teams is quite different when comparing them to our ATA all American teams when you figure in the number of college...
Jr. gold and sub vet has added a substantial number. Now there are less than 50% of shooters than there were in years past and there are 3 times as...
I believe what this means is that many-many shooters with average ability and the time and the financial funds to attend the Prelim& Grand American...
I don't know when they stopped, but in the early 60's the 12ga 3" magnums were still sold in the 2 piece box like pictured above. Dave Berlet
I know that it was always a thrill to me to see my name on the big board during the Vandalia Grands. Dave Berlet
Maybe History Buff can clarify this for me. Sometime not long after I started shooting an old timer explained to me that the reason our sport is...
