My point was that AAA DID not have any positive affect on the shoot. If you check the attendance for the state shoot numbers have been going down...
Class AAA.
ollie, everyone I see at the Cardinal is driving a golf cart today, they don't even walk one field. There is no reason not to scrap the bank system....
Butch I can remember standing in line at Vandalia and me, Leo, whomever we were shooting with would get there about 4 or 5 am the day squading...
I wonder if this boycott will be extended to the Ohio State Shoot next week? Brad
Hope we can get an updated photo, we haven't seen one in awhile. Brad
When I used to shoot ATA I always liked the Pa shoots, my kids liked to go to the little amusement park, Knobel's if I remember right. Brad
Yes back in the mid 80's was before Winston and his boys took over the ata and made it what it is today. In the mid 80's the Missouri State shoot...
Maybe the fact that I have never met T shot is what keeps Neil Winston at number one. Brad
Neil Winston is the biggest Ass I ever met in 45 years of trap shooting, and his post above should prove that to all. Brad Dysinger
I wonder is there going to be class AAA zone team members, and what about a zone that doesn't have 2 AAA shooters shoot there zone? If a zone...
What needs to be done is walk the trap line like we used to do. That way no bank would be better than any other and the time of day would be what...
AZCOTRAP, Trap shooting is more than ATA to a lot of us. The PITA out west, Leagues in Maryland and Pa, money shoots in Ohio, protector shoots in...
I think the noise issue was worse for me when we had real live pullers than it was with voice pulls. I was always jumpy at fast pulls and then get...
Wildcat Lewis, What you are describing is something that bothered me a lot at big shoots. So in 1985 I started using a Walkman with recorded songs...
Does anyone know how the Sporting Clays membership is going? I know skeet shoots have never been very big in Ohio but were mostly down south back...
I remember playing the slot wheel with the County sheriff standing right beside me betting away, that they used the Westy Hogan's shooting method for...
This is an article in the March 1980 Trap & Field Brad [ATTACH]
Old Goat 2, I could have used the term "moronic statement", but I personally think idiot more correctly describes T shot from reading his posts on...
T shot maybe you are an ATA EC ass kissing idiot. Brad
In 2016 10,905 ATA members were sub jrs and jrs out of an ATA membership of 31,815. Of those kid shooters less than 1% of sub jrs and 1% of jrs shot...
Don I'm not privy to the what the rules for the shoot are, just that I will be enforcing them for the shoot. If Czaring isn't a word before it is...
I won't be shooting I'll be Czaring the shoot. I think Trap Czar has a better ring to it than just tournament director does. I'm looking into...
The only time I ever shot a release was way back in 1974 before I joined the ATA. My cousin and I would go to the Fort Wayne Winchester Club to...
Stafford was the best I ever saw in person although I heard Hiram Bradley was great. I saw Ray at Holford's pigeon shoot when a guy bet him 500...
Continental had a shoot last Sunday for Steak (another meat shoot) 50 bird 25 16's and 25 20 yard and they had 16 plus squads. For those of you that...
User 1 it started way before that, in the mid 70's the plot started. The mid western states of Iowa, Illinois, South Dakota, Minnesota and Nebraska...
Roger was he talking?
In 1974 when you joined the ATA you got a temporary 22 yard card and then after shooting 1000 handicap and 1000 single targets you got a permanent...
j price, Same thing with me, Shooters never were allowed to shoot drunk. Another shooter or club management would see to that. I was always more...
I miss the grandstands at night when the shoot offs were going on, lying in the grass between the hundreds on clay target day and watching the August...
Raising the age to 21 is no answer. The same people (news people, democrats, Liberals) think a minor girl can have an abortion without telling or...
I would like to see all Trumps supporters join the NRA just to see if we couldn't get some of the talking heads on PMSNBC and CNN to explode....
T shot, my opinion for what it is worth, and remember I have shot in 38 states and 4 Canadian Providences, and I have been to Sparta on 2 occasions,...
I think it is too late, the old guard is going fast. The average ATA member today knows nothing of Vandalia, money shooting, 55 yard 3 hole...
If you really want to change the ATA do what I did, quit giving them money and stop shooting ATA. Go to the shoot and visit and shoot practice if...
Good job Larry, and all the other volunteers too. Brad
Don, 70 Thousand fewer ATA members today than 1981, I'd say the vast majority of Registered shooters have already expressed themselves. Throw in the...
19 I started ATA but I had shot clay targets at Cloverdale when I was 9. I didn't shoot much between then and when I stated in 1974 shooting ATA...
Smithy, why don't you post their singles and doubles averages also to be fair? The ATA now throws 40 yard doubles instead of the 50 yard ones they...
Trappermike I don't think I know you but I hope you are sincere in what you say, Winston isn't to blame for anything that I know of but other than...
Larry you hit that nail on the head. Kevin sounds like most of the old time money shooters I've read about or have personally known. If you like to...
Trappermike, you may be in love with Neil Winston but he has undoubtedly done more to destroy ATA shooting than any one man I have known in 44 years...
Larry I like what you are saying, but unless the ATA EC gets their heads out of there asses what is the next level for those kids that like...
As for the free shell argument what number of free shells would be the limit. At the Grand Remington, Winchester, and Federal reps would often times...
Rebel Yell was Jim's drink, I tried to buy a bottle yesterday to pass around at the funeral home for him but couldn't find one. I remember Jim from...
