A fantastic direction indeed. I guess Illinois loss would be Ohio's gain.
I talked with Jake today and he filled me in a little on the pistol/rifle range. He said it was a 300 point range 200 points 100 yards/meters and...
I wonder why the first skeet nationals were in Ohio? Could it be location, location, location?
I guess I must have answered Leonidas's question, he has left the building. Brad
Leonidas, I am going to tell the SCTP kids and coachs just what they should hear from a 42 year ATA life member who has been in the Trap Shooting...
Flyersarebest, my 25 pin is the one I'm proudest of. As great a shooter as Leo was he never killed a 25 straight. One time he called me and said...
I'm working on the History Buff to come to the CC and the SCTP nationals in July. I'm sure the OSTA will have the Ohio Museum and HOF open for the...
The shoot in July at the Cardinal will be something. I was told there will be 8 days of trap shooting. Four days of handicap and doubles and four...
Leonidas, What does an average kid get from being forced to be an ATA member and pay ATA and State daily dues to a corrupt organization? It would be...
Dave I'm really excited about the SCTP coming to Ohio and the CC. You know I've been angling for this for years, the CC and the SCTP are a match...
Kenny I have two old trap shooting rule books one "Skeet and Trapshooting" all the 1934 rules put out by the Hercules Powder Company and the other...
Good Stuff All
Vendor's should have seen the wreck coming. I was against the AIG, GM, and Banks bailouts too.
When I bought my life membership in 1976 it stated on the certificate that I was given when I paid my $75 that I was an owner, so by anyone's measure...
Don't boot Duffkjs06, at least he comes on an says his peace. The koolaid site is the ones that boots someone who doesn't agree with all the boys...
You guys are seeing why I have been screaming from the rooftops about the way the ATA has been run for the last 25 years. To say that no one saw...
Dave why don't you tell the people on this site how much money the SCTP youth teams have gotten from Midway endowment since it started, was that 5...
No buddy there Dan, don't know.
History Buff I've told you many times what I think of the leaders of the ATA. I've told everyone since at least Loving was VP that the ATA was...
I heard there was a yakerman sighting today at a restaurant near the entrance to the CC. Maybe he's the one feeding merlo all the secret info. I...
I've been shooting this way since my dad gave me a gun to shoot (right hand) and told me to keep both eyes open. I never realized a person had a...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Luke sent me these pictures of some of the work going on at the Cardinal Center getting ready for the kids SCTP Nationals. The...
WPT you can certainly remember when the Illinois State Association bought Mather's and instituted the 20 dollar state membership fee and all the back...
Maybe merlo's spy is a former member of the EC, possibly a stutter typer. Brad
Seitz9010, I had a couple of thoughts last night come to me. The EC has a new guy now (pipe layer) who used to seem to me to have the average ATA...
Could be to protect merlo's spies from Chicago politics.
HistoryBuff, Merlo told me the MOU is coming on this site for everyone to read sometime tonite. Then everyone can read it for themselves and make up...
I have come to the conclusion that Merlo must have a "man" on the inside. I'd guess either Greentitian or Hunter44, I'm leaning for hunter44 because...
I've viewed a copy of the actual signed MOU, looks a lot like m i c k e y M O U se club to me. Has the IDNR or ATA posted it yet? If they haven't...
I've heard Merlo has got some news from one of his local spies. Is this true?
duffkiss06, looks like my info on the SCTP from Dec 27 was right on the mark. My new info is that the MOU is now for only 2 or 3 weeks. PorchDog...
I've already talked with Luke and will be at the CC to help with the shoot anyway I can. I've talked to both Kenny Ray and Dave about doing...
I've heard the same news that the MOU is now for 2 or 3 weeks only. I've also read that the SCTP has a contract for 2017 with the IDNR so if the...
It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that I think the Leaders of the ATA, (delegates and EC members) are what is hurting registered...
I talked with the boys at the CC and it is a signed deal as of today. This will be great for the SCTP kid's families too, just think of all the...
I've heard the EC's secret plan to save the grand at Sparta, and the ATA in general, is to buy the winning lotto ticket in tonight's big powerball...
I want to know why there is not an all Kool Aid drinker team, I vote for Geentitian and hunter44 as co captains. Certainly they would have the most...
Leonidas, If you live in a state that allows gun control to run amuck you need to fix your own house. I spend my time making sure that here in Ohio...
It's been so long since I shot in Arizona that I don't know if these guys are from Phoenix or Tucson. I thought that the HOF would have gotten the...
I no longer go to Maryland, I lived there for 8 years and loved the Eastern Shore, great hunting but I felt like I had to get out when my kids got...
Good facts Kenny. It sucks when good facts get in the way of the official BS line from the EC. Easier targets, shorter targets, more satellite...
I've heard from two different shooters from the AZ area in the last month that the Martin money hasn't found it's way into the hof's coffers as of...
Family guy might have a point. BigDon in the grudge match did resemble Michigan State more than Alabama did the good Doctor. I did hear a rumor...
The number one thing that has cost the ATA shooters is the move to Sparta, Illinois. All the other dumb ass moves before and since pail in...
Watching Michigan State vs Alabama in the playoff game last week I couldn't help but think that maybe Dr. Longshot passed along some secret knowledge...
I think today is the one year anniversary for americantrapshooter.com if I'm not mistaken, although I don't know how that can be right, I remember...
Dan I think a collective WE TOLD YOU SO is in order right about now, so WE TOLD YOU SO. I feel better now. I'm planning on going to the Moulton...
I know that Jack told SCTP he'd build 16 skeet fields for the nationals if they'd commit to the CC. Not sure where they'd be but Jack does own...
Question --- When is the proper time to say I told you so? Answer ---- Right about now. Brad
I wonder when 'too late' is for the kool aid boys. I talked to a person in the firearms industry today and they still haven't heard anything on a...
