If I ever get the boss over here I’m going to take her to the club for skeet and maybe trap . If she endures/likes that I’ll let her try 5-stand and if that goes over well perhaps I’ll take her to Central VA Sporting Clays . We are in the process of buying some real estate in the Philippines and hopefully I’ll be able to get in a fifty yard rifle/pistol range and maybe a couple target throwers for clay birds . I’m just not up on how hard it’s going to be to get UNbroken birds there And before you ask I have no intention of trying to take any of my American or European doubles there . Although it sure would be nice to have two of the VH 16’s there . We’ve got a Citori a used but unfired Upland Special 20 gauge I’ve been contemplating picking up for the boss . That would be an excellent gun to get over there because if it’s stolen or I can’t bring it back there’s no great sentimental attachment .
