Thank you PGCA for the sponsorship!

[Craig Larter]

Thank you PGCA for sponsoring the inaugural 50 target 8ga field event at this years Southern. Any makers 8ga hammer or hammerless is allowed to participate in the event. Also note a 8ga 30 target event has been added to the dove field 5 stand events. This will be BIG!
Start shopping for your 8ga Parker and join in the fun! Plenty of 8ga shooters on this forum to get you started. You will never have more fun shooting a shotgun!

Big pat on the back to you Craig for really starting all this. Between you and the other Craig on my side of the Mason/Dixon I've got to try it. Not sure I ready to buy one of those cannons yet but time will tell.

Don't forget Big Mike Koneski, he was first to add an 8ga event to his Rock Mountain July shoot. Mike also was responsible for obtaining the PGCA sponsorship and assistance convincing the Southern organizers.

I could be wrong but I think Koneski told me Rock Mountain is putting up a HOA trophy for a combination of the two events only open to Parker shooters .

Mike who??:) I know mountainboy has been influencial in this but geeze, he shoots 50 event at the Southern. God bless his liitle soul. Sorry, when I think 8ga. I think Larter. I like to come up with something special to present at the Big Whoop event this year. Now if were are talking 10ga, then the prize goes to Mr Thompson.

Yes Dean, we've expanded it from the Bo Whoop as it's always been, the Baby Whoop for smallbores shot low gun and the Big or Mega Whoop just for the 8ga fans. The Letterman is still a very popular event for those who can't handle two barrels.:)

There is a 34” 8 gauge currently on the market. Surprised you 8 gauge fellers haven’t snatched it up!

He said something to me about there being a HOA award for the combined score of the 5-stand and field event at Deep River and I think he said Rock Mountain was putting that prize in play . I had David D. make an HOA trophy for the two 8 gauge events combined at Rock Mountain last year and I think he thought it a good idea for Deep River as well this year .

You making reference to the CH 34” Mr. Lowensteiner has for sale ? I’ve had that gun in my hands a bunch of times . I’d like to have it just for the fact that it has fluid steel barrels but not at 40K+ .

8 gauge event at The Southern : What day ? What time ? Just want to watch what my shoulder can't handle.

The dove field event is April 23 & 24, until 12noon. (I believe the Parker-Smith qualifying is both afternoons)
The field event is the 24,25 and 26.

I will schedule a day and time so those that want to shoot as a group can do so.

Gentlemen, Rock Mountain Sporting Clays is sponsoring the 8g trophy to the HOA Parker shooter for both the 50 bird field event and 30 bird 5-Stand event combined.
