Well now if you made it to Hampton you were within I’d say 20-30 miles of The Backwoods Quail Club ! You should give some thought into returning in mid October for a few days and shoot the Fall Southern Side by Side . While I like Sanford just fine , Rock Mountain and the Fall Southern were my two highlights of the 2021 clay targets shoots . Well you can add Prospect Hall in WVA but they’re mostly one day deals .

Thanks, Craig. I've never shot organized clays in my life. When I get too old to go grouse hunting in October any more, I'll give it a try. The way I shoot, I could provide great comedy relief at these shoots.

Garry, we don't go to win. I won a gun championship the first time I entered a vintage gun tournament at the Southern. I haven't won anything since, but I've written a bunch of checks to gun sellers.

Everyone’s been in that exact boat their first try be it skeet , trap , sporting or live birds . And everyone assumes others will laugh at them . I’ve found that to be about 180 degrees from the truth . Heck I’ve been shooting clay birds for a bit over fifty years and last year was the first time I’d ever shot live pigeons in competition . Folks at a pigeon ring seem to be even more complimentary than folks at the clay target games .
