I'm not sure you'd have to create a new entity to do something like this. Just do it non registered. Everyone shoots a minimum of 27 yards. So,...

The rules are conflicting but that seems to be one interpretation. You'd have to ask the guys that wrote the rule if they meant for it to be applied...

Jhunts, I believe the conflicting rule you are pointing out came about after a rule change many years ago after a issue during a shoot off at the...

while the rules require the score keeper to call "lost" when a target is missed, I am not aware of any rule that awards a lost target to the shooter...

Roger, I got about the same as you but I didn't actually count them all, but did consider team reserved squads as full. I think Barnett was only...

Looks like a little over 900 skeet shooters and 900 SC shooters.

I didn't see that there were two sets of dates for the 16yd trap. If I counted right, there are approx 475 squads assigned on Shot5. Most are full,...

Based on what I'm seeing on the Shot5 website I'm guessing the 5400 number is for all events throughout the week. The 16yd trap looks to have room...

The ATA is a cash cow for the SCTP. The SCTP requires the kids to register targets to compete at the State and National levels. In return the ATA...

Yes, there are many parents/grand parents out there introducing kids to the sport. Look across the country at the various high school programs....

Interesting to read this. Our 4th Degrees did this too. I just thought our Grand Knight was a goof ball. Seems like it must be something that is...

Seems to me the State/IDNR still may hold the upper hand. [ATTACH]

Jersey. That would be one bet you would lose. I wish I still had my classification receipt to prove it to you but I don't. The program was...

Wisconsin does this. A couple of years ago after a year of not shooting any registered targets I went to their shoot with a few hundred targets and...

So Seitz9010 you must then favor mandatory reductions? If you're against letting someone shoot from yardage they haven't earned, it would only make...

mfowler13, My average books are at home, but am fairly sure that the rule book included in the 2012 average book showed the 25 shooter rule. The...

So how long had the prior rule of 25 shooters for earned yardage for the top score been in place?

Gary, I've heard Pat Trap rubber bands can need a midday adjustment. I've never seen a request for a reset because of soft targets though. I'm sure...

Hunts, seriously ? You knew exactly what I was saying was in relation to the entire field. The more you nitpick comments.............. You're a...

Which part of my reply was incorrect ?

It won't and I didn't state that it would. But, if I'm correct and the payroll costs have continued since it's been closed how does opening shooting...

Dawg, I thought all the state employees at the WRSC were still there. How does opening shooting back up add millions of expense?

44 degrees. I know you know the rule book well and new the answer to that question. 34 degrees is the preferred setting, 44 degrees is a...

Our SCTP shoot is in June. My conflict with the National shoot is the WI State ATA Shoot. The Iowa State ATA shoot is the following week.

Don, our SCTP shoot is 4 days just for trap. Sporting and Skeet. Have their own deal. 1400 shot the 16 yd trap last year.

targets can be thrown to 51 yds. The radar gun rule you cited is only for if you use one. No requirement to do so that I can see in the rule book....

Roger, I just don't think the kids are going to say 'hey, it's at CC this year, let's go'. I guess that is the inference that I got from the...

I think location will have very little to do with any increase. The SCTP continues to grow its program and in my opinion any growth in the National...

Gary, very nice explanation of the Calcutta process, but it didn't answer my question. Langer's answer addresses how a club might make more money...

Don, at our state shoot (IA) only the 16yd targets are registered. In Iowa the kids are handicapped basically by age group with yard ages of 19, 21,...

How would it cost a club less to throw a Non Registered Money shoot vs a Registered Money shoot? I wasn't aware of any fees a club paid to the ATA...

That is correct, but they did pay $12,000 in 2015.

$12,000 in 2015

IA had over 3,000 kids in their SCTP program last year. 113 teams with about 50% receiving some sort of school support. In our team's case, that...

Bill, glad to hear how things worked in AZ. There is little doubt in my mind that all will be similar in Sparta. The lead mining issue is only a...

Bill, Was Roger C part of the management of the Pheonix club? Did his business supply traps or traps parts or service? If yes to both of those...

Yes Gipson had multiple interests but I don't know where he potential conflicts would be. It would seem to me that his personal interests would only...

I see it has Gipson making a recommendation on who he would like to see hired. I seriously doubt that he could have any significant influence over...

Gary, Wouldn't this be a State of Illinois position? How does it become an ATA decision? If you want your input to be heard contact the same guy...

Doc, He wasn't questioning the "no bid" part, he was questioning the part about them not being able to throw "proper angles and distance".

Odd. Seemed to work for me. Maybe he has his BS filter turned on to reject certain content.

User1, the clarification he is seeking if from Gary. I too have reviewed the documents that Gary supplied and cannot see a reference to a WTA....

Gary, wrong again. You just do not understand what you are looking at. Please look them over again, read all the accompanying notes and you will...

Lady T, Obviously you are stating your opinion as it has been made clear that there are states that provide for this activity. I will state, if you...

Doc, I fully understand the difference between the 990 and the financial statements. My original point to you was you stated your numbers came from...

I'm not sure where the 4 months thing is coming from. The release from the ATA states June, July, August. It also seems that most are assuming...

Gary, your post with the numbers that Roger questioned states they are taken from the 990, not the financials. Line 12 of the 990 is Total Revenue...

the press release I read doesn't state the governor plans to attend. It states 'a representative from the governor's office'. Sure that could mean...

But I will. Thanks WPT. Was there a significant price difference from what you could buy them for at Wally World vs at the shell house? Was the...
