Sorry I never got back with you Daniel. Yes the SA is thrown with the new 5-stand controller. It allows you to program the flurry. There are 6 machines - two out in front throwing birds back in toward you, one on each side of you throwing crossers, and two behind throwing birds past you as out goers. As far as I know we'll be using the skeet field and standing at, or slightly behind station 4. The crossing birds will be the skeet houses. The original program has a report pr, 8 sec delay, another RP, 8 sec delay, and a true pair, 8 sec delay to repeat everything three more times ending with one bird. I believe Dennis wants 30 birds instead of 25 so the ending will be 6 more birds instead of the single bird.

Our Friday Night Birds under black lights is shot from the 5-stand building and is loads of fun. Especially for those guys who claim they never see their barrel or bead when pulling the trigger. You can't see either, and our in house shooters who shoot 23, 24, or the 25 in the day time shoot about 10 to 15 birds less. One buddy who shot a 24 with his 410 and a 25 with his 12, latter shot a 1 at night. What a lot of guys have done is put a short piece of reflective tape on their rib by the muzzle [ the narrow tape is included with the lights for some reason ]. Now they can see the bird/barrel relationship and know when to pull the trigger. Orange birds work, but the green birds really show up great and look super when hit. Mitch bought 150 watt lights from Amazon [ $150/pair ] and I believe he spent around 750 or 800 dollars. We took a couple of machines from SCs [ it's closed in the winter ] so we didn't have to rearrange the machines we had for day birds because the tops of the birds need to be seen. The black bottoms won't show up under the black lights. Now with the time change we can throw from a little after 5 till 9PM, our quitting time. It's usually booked up solid. We may get a couple more and try it on the skeet field . Two lights should work, one at each house facing out.

Hope this answers any questions.
