Default Southern Side by Side and SB shoot?

Maybe we could get the boys at the Southern to include SBT's in a shoot. Maybe have a Parker vs LC Smith SBT competition. Anythig that gives me another excuse for having to take a shooting trip and I'm in...

There are some really nice SBT's from several makers. Wouldn't it be nice to see a bunch of Parkers, LC's, Ithica's etc, doing battle again. I'll bet a shoot like that would bring out some old guns that haven't seen the light of day in decades. I'll bet with the right people behind it we could have one! Talk about nostalgia...

I don't know whether Ernie has a single trap event on the program at the Northeast Shoot, but he has in the past.

Default Parkervs. LC Smith single barrel challenge

In October the So. California SxS has always had a Parker vs. Smith Single Barrel Challenge.
This will take place at Prado gun club near Los Angeles, and the winner will be placed on the trophy on display at Ivory Beads, in Covina California.
The first three years L.C. Smith was the winner, and last year Parker won the honors.
Shooters may enter by calling Jim Thynne toll free at 888-328-0700.

The last shoot displayed nearly 100 vintage Single Trap Guns from the United Sates, England, and Europe.
If you are traveling to the area,or wish to join the festivities please join us.

Gentlemen
Tom Carter has arranged with Rick Hemmingway for a SBT shoot at the Fall Southern. I think Tom has a post on here somewhere.

I missed Rick's shoot last year. I hope to attend this year. Rick is one great guy, sets the targets at the Parker versus L.C.Smith shoot at the North Carolina Southern Side by Side, just works his butt off. He is interested in great targets, hosts the South Carolina State NSCA Shoot at his facility.

This is the first time I have heard of this shoot, has it ever been written up in Parker pages? I would like to learn more about this even though I am on the other coast. It would be nice to see left coast events in Parker Pages, with some pictures of what is going on out there!
