Default Mike Franzen at the Grand American

Mike Franzen also competed in the Grand American in the Single Barrel Trap Gun event shooting his Parker Brothers SB.
Mike shot very well and didn’t have a forend to worry about.

Next to last pic is Mike shooting John shooting for the Championship.

It was a good day to shoot at Sparta. A slight breeze made the temps "shootable" and the shade provided by the covers at each trap was a welcome addition.
