The details have been worked out for the new events.
1. Maker's Challenge
The challenge will be part of the main event. When you sign in we will ask what gun you will use in the Super Sporting event. All scores posted of each maker will be compared and the top 3 scores will make up a "Team" for that maker. Then those top scores will be compared by make to determine which maker's team scored the best. Tie breaker stations will determine the winner in the event of a tie.
2. Hammergun Event
The 5 stand will be used to determine a winner of each gauge shot with a hammergun for those who wish to participate. It can be shot as many times as someone wants with as many guns as desired. Your highest score for each gauge will be compared to others shooting that same gauge. There will be one winner in each gauge.
Shooting can be done Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
3. Grouse Walk
If you ever had the pleasure of walking down a fire lane or old logging road you know when a grouse finds the air he is going to do so at the most inopportune time, when your gun is in the wrong hand, you are stepping over a log or walking on the wrong side of a tree. They flush too early creating a long shot or so close that you just throw some lead to see how good your dog is. Well, we hope you get that feeling when you visit our grouse walk. this is our first kick at this event so please understand that it is a work in progress.
You will find rules posted on the first of three stations. There are four shooting positions at each station. Your trapper and the rest of the squad will remain by the scoring podium as you move to the first shooting position identified by the silhouette of a grouse standing on the edge of the road. Your trapper will decide when to release the first bird based on your proximity to the grouse. It could come a yard before or after the grouse and it be will a report pair. After you attempt the first pair eject the empties, reload the gun, put it back on safety and walk to the next and subsequent shooting positions. You will soon find that the presentation changes with each pair.
Upon shooting the last pair, be sure the chambers are empty and send the next shooter out after your gun is back in the rack. Remember, this is not a "stand and get your shot" event. It is the perfect event for a trapper to have fun with the guy walking up on a covey of grouse. No "do over", no saying ," I did not see that bird", no saying "Give me another pair". In this event you get what the your trapper serves you. Some of you will feel good that you could actually feed your family using your shotgun and others will be happy to know the grocer is still open.
Have fun and be safe first.
Still a few spots left!
