The reason I have a problem with 20 thousand dollar k - 80's is that the majority of their owners think they know more about trap shooting than...
If the ATA is sending out free rejoin membership e-mails are they going to allow all the SCTP kids to shoot for free this year? It seems to me that...
STaT nAn STaN I'm not sure how much historical research you have used for your formula, and without the graph master's wisdom being bestowed on us I...
I wonder how many of those 166 he claimed. Maybe that free gun that the ATA members paid for doesn't fit so well. Maybe he was shooting with honest...
Hoosier8 you are describing Federal Targets from the 80's or 90's. They used them one year at the Grand American and the scores were awful. Those...
Subjr1 In the year 2000 I was inducted in the HOF. I am proud that I earned my way because of my shooting, not how much money I gave to build a...
Come to Ohio, all the clubs around me are shooting. I lived in Maryland from 1985 to 1993 and my brother in law still lives there. The league...
I can't see the ATA coming back and I don't see any new organization coming along. Trap shooting was historically made up of off season bird and...
It's the trustees that's dropped the ball on this, and Bradford in particular. They should be the ones answering what happened that put an anti...
Who is responsible for the HOF going from Dick Baldwin, to Kenny Ray, to an anti gun Trump hater at the helm? My vote goes to the trustees. My...
Thank you Polos shooter, I'm going to have to do some investigation and thinking before I respond to this situation.
I see Dave is shooting a top single. Good for him.
Palos shooter, I don't know anything about or wouldn't recognize this guy if I ran over him. I'm trying to get a little info out of Merlo but he's...
Merlo I don't do Facebook so what are you talking about?
I was told back when I started shooting doubles that it didn't matter if you missed a first bird or a second they both counted the same. Practice...
Who's Donald Schaffer? I know Dave Shaeffer.
It's more important how a gun points than the speed it swings, there is controlled speed and out of controlled speed. The reason the heavy un...
Dustin you should shoot as many doubles as you can afford too. They will help you with 16 yard shooting more than 16 yard practice will.
Don the state was just a lucky wild guess on my part. I guessed it on the premises that if you cheat to become ATA delegate and then become ATA...
Don he wasn't a past ATA president from Kentucky was it?
Dustin that view of the Club is one of my favorites at any trap club I ever shot at. My first pay check from a trap shoot came from the 1974 Mid...
rookieshooter if old fat guys of today would just look at a trap and field magazine from when you and flyersarebest and I started shooting they would...
We still have plenty of trap shells around here in Ohio but the rifle and pistol ammo is in short supply. The last time I was at the local pawn...
Columbus you are so right about that.
Most of the SCTP teams in Ohio get their money from the Midway Foundation. Many, indeed I say most, of the SCTP kids come from new non trap...
Try a bunch of different guns, if you can, before you buy one. A used trap gun is a lot cheaper than a new one and will last just as long and every...
Elsie you are spot on. I broke my first 25 straight with a 870 wing master 3 in mag duck gun one fall when I was 18. I just shot trap to practice...
One third of ATA members are SCTP or AIM shooters, 0ne thrid are vets and sr vets. Which ones are the future of the ATA?
Don when you were Tournament Director for the OSTA how many kids with Bt 99's bitched to you about something, compared to some old guy with a K-80...
Tim the numbers for the Buckeye were down because the SCTP kids that normally shoot on Saturday weren't there. If I remember right there would have...
If i'd have caught it before I posted it I'd have changed it but just like a wind blown straightaway that is shot beside it is gone, lost, and...
I looked at the scores from last weeks Buckeye shoot at the Cardinal Center and it reinforced what I've always known about shooting windy, or strong,...
Joe can handle hard targets even without feathers.
Bob I see Summer won the shoot off, just 2 198's.
What are the scores like today?
I read that Canada just moved deadline to Oct 21.
I've been looking at the handicap scores at the Cardinal Center Buckeye shoot this week and they seem low to me, just like the good old days. I've...
I had a good conversation with Luke yesterday about a lot of things going on at the Cardinal. One big news item was that next summer between the...
Tim how many shooters are you looking for this year? The fall shoot was never as big as the spring shoot back in the day. Has your weekly shooting...
What was the occasion for the HOF being open, was an ATA shoot going on?
The ATA and the Democrat party are very similar animals. A lot of stuff to fix and not just one thing will do the job.
Thanks offset and thanks DEDPAIR for the info, looks like a good shoot like paBOB implied.
paBob what I'm asking you is how about giving us some facts/numbers on the shoot. Down 80 entries is pretty bad if they had 85 last year, facts and...
My all time list, the Old Harold's Club in Reno, Bob Taylor's in Las Vegas, Jaqua's in Ohio, Great Eastern in Ohio, and the grand daddy Vandalia....
History Seeker, I know that there is active talk about expanding the Ohio HOF Museum and I expect it to happen with in a couple of years, the covid...
Dave you and I as HOF Members need to make our voice heard, I just wish the other living members would go on the record instead of just talking to me...
As a member of the National Trapshooting HOF I am very concerned about the safety of the items in the Museum at Sparta and I can't see how any...
Good Move on Your Club's part. No need to go up against the CC.
Fostoria was the first club in Ohio that I ever shot ATA targets at in 1974. St. Joe Ind was the first club period, March of 1974.
Ben Smith is down here at my place to hunt Doves for a few days and he was keeping me up on your gun club fire. He said you got most of the old...
