I think the Win Mod 12 is the perfect shotgun. The one I shoot the best is a 28 inch field gun. I have both full and moified one's. When the...

We had pretty good money at the first few Ohio State Shoots at the CC. What killed money shooting was not one thing but several. The ATA's AA...

I talked to Jake and the CC is going to take down all the curtian, too much damage. It would cost over 70K just to replace the poles that are down...

Trap Shooters don't shoot for money, they should offer 5X AA points.

Just to visit Hunter?

I forgot, who's the guy holding the flag, he looks somewhat familer to me?

Phil knew a lot about spreading stuff besides recoil. I miss our heart's games. Me, him, Leo, and Bobbie Gilbertson would shoot the chain together...

Don after today maybe we will be seeing you too.

D. Lee Braun was a skeet shooter. He shot some trap but if anyone knows which way a target is going it's a skeet shooter. I'd be interested in...

Back when men shot trap we would turn up the spring and put it in the 5 hole for 16 yard shoot offs.

Dave Berlet made my recoil pads when he worked at Goodyear. It;s the best pad I've ever had, but he only made about 2 doz or so. I have three of...

Thanks Bruce, hard to believe what that gun looks like. I've never seen any gun blow up that bad before. Have you?

I talked to Jake and he said that the CC would pay 20K to fix the screen anytime when needed in order to make the 90K in lead sales that they get for...

Bruce if you have heard what make of gun and was it and was it an O/U or auto?

I will agree with ollie that today's ATA shooters are made up of the fat and lazy who are so out of shape that they can't tote their $20,000 shotguns...

Ollie what are you talking about??? One of those clubs holding meat shoots once a month is Cloverdale and they have about 15 to 20 squads, a lot of...

Thanks Lima 50 and Joe. If you want to see what we do at Thorn Bottom you can find it on u tube under Thorn Bottom Hunting, Ohio Pheasant Hunting,...

The clubs in Ohio that are prospering are the smaller 2 trap clubs that DO set wider harder farther targets and don't shoot ATA. The ATA Ohio...

Don I agree with you but math is hard for some people. The only thing in this conversation that I want to add is that Neil Winston was the biggest...

When I shot my first Grand American in 1974 I watched Britt, Dan, and Larry shoot several events and I said then that's who I want to shoot like....

More important to me, what happens to Punkin?????

Trap shooting doesn't need fixed, the ATA needs fixed. Local clubs around NW Ohio are doing fine shooting practice and meat shoots. Other parts of...

That wasn't so hard a question after all.

Let's see how that works out for them.

A lot of people seem to want Dave and me to write a book, I'll talk to him and see if we can come up with something.

Back when Leo won his events we shot together and he followed me at the grand. He could read the up and down movement of the trap off of my shot,...

Singles shooters ate bologna while handicap shooters ate steak and sea food back in my day.

Dave I'm sure I was working too hard to notice how quite you were (are) at the time. Ed Leo and I did play a game or two of hearts over the years....

How much does it pay? Not for me by the way I just thought it would be nice to know.

Leo and I traveled, shot, and hunted together for 30 years, We met in 1975 and he was as close to a brother as I will ever have. Even after I quit...

This thread seems to have aged pretty well. A lot better than the 30 days comments from all those years ago. I'd like to see that thread back to...

I don't think even Bill Martin can afford Sparta again, he did pay for the hof building once already. It will be interesting to see who does bid on...

I would think that the State of Illinois would have some laws on the books about how to sell state property. I can't think it could be done without...

Merlo, If this is true then the HOF is up for sale too. I remeber a thread on here from a couple years ago that a lawyer said that the state owned...

I spent Friday afternoon on u tube looking at trap shooting videos. The number of expert trap shooters giving advice was breath taking, most of...

How about stupidly foolish.

FTX math.

The mandatory doubles ford purse was around in 1978 for sure because Leo won them. In doubles you could win them all but in handicap only one and...

All the old western LV and Reno shoots had mandatory money. Live Bird shooting has mandatory money. The old ATA Grand's had mandatory money. I'll...

My part of Northwest Ohio was trap shooting and rifle shooting territory. Camp Perry was about 100 miles north and Vandalia 100 miles south. The...

bobski, What years were you in Maryland? I was there from 1985 to 1993, the Beretta Factory was on Indian Head Highway. I lived in Cambridge...

No news, I wonder if he is going to take the CC job? It is/was open.

PaShooter, when I first moved to Maryland in the fall of 1985 I was suprised to see that the state Association put out one program for all the...

paBob It would be nice if someone from Pa in the know, I guess that means not you, would fill us in on what the story is. Did Skip quit, get fired,...

It is done.
