Default Start 'em young

This past winter, I posted pix of my oldest grandson Matt in the youth hunting thread. Now, here comes his 12 year- old brother, Ryan, who won the junior class sporting clays event at the Lewiston Sportsman Club in Michigan. (Had about a 66% average). He also won a shootoff against several master class shooters in the "Long Bird "event - probably the first time they lost to a 12 year old. They agreed before hand to split the pot, and so he won $105. Guess he's now a Pro.

This proves that the apple can fall far from the grandfatherly tree. No SxS's were in attendance, but it was still a great start for him
