Dean had a good description of the Bo-Whoop targets. I am responsible for the B-W shoot for the Fox Collectors. While setting the targets on Thursday, we put a laser rangefinder on a tall pine tree behind the farthest target (the high one) and its top boughs measured 58 yards. The wind may have blown the bird back at times on Friday, but Saturday's birds dropped in front of the tree.
The high target was tricky with lots of curl, difficult to gauge. Some shooters took the high target first, coming off the trap, and that worked well for them. One gent with a 16 gauge Parker using RST 7/8 ounce loads of 8's, broke two birds. However many of the shooters reverted to heavier loads and Alex/RST told me they sold a lot of their specialty pigeon loads.
JD Shank was high gun with 5 ex 10 targets, using a W&C Scott 12 gauge pigeon gun. The Bo-Whoop trophy was taken by Tom Wyraz with 4 ex 10 using a XE/HE Super Fox. A more detailed rundown may be found at the link that follows.
