Mike the MT 4300 is what we are using and so far for this luddite it is very user friendly. Will report back after a month or so on how it is going, we shoot it once a week now and a lot of the usual suspects are on vacation/ summer places so as time goes on more will become acclimated to it.

Well, we were wireless for about 3-4 years and we went with a system that better suits our needs with the Long Range. It works much better with our terrain and vegetation. We can even use it for our 3-Bird shoots and not have to use jumpers and gang receptacles and 10 miles of cords.

There is a slight learning curve but once you use the system it becomes intuitive. The "seasoned shooters" just need to get over their phobia of all things techie. They'll like it too. Any questions PM or call me.

Mike:

Neal has his Long Range stuff pretty well figured out. I remember when he started it. Its come a long way. My students used it at Nationals and other majors for many years. Good stuff.

I am trying to work out the possibility of attending your shoot. The Make a Break sounds great as long as that #7 bird is inside of 50 yards. LOL

Just a comment here that the Rock (Mike and Susan) threw over 100,000 clays during the PA State NSCA Championship hosted there over the past long weekend. Do the math, that's about 400 flats of shells shot by > 300 registered shooters. As I understand it Evil Mike the target setter has some big doings in store for their Northern SxS.

Well now, there's a new euphemism. Leave it to an editor to come up with that.

There ya go! As long as it passes through “the box” at some point it’s a legit target. I forgot all about that.
