Thanks Pete and Mr. Roll for the mention. If anyone doubts the effectiveness of a 3/4oz. load in the lowly 20ga. this should be proof enough that bigger is'nt always better. My "Baby- Whoop" just loves that load and I lost the shoot off not because of the gun/load but because of a major league flinch.
Funny thing is I lent the Sterly 20 to Dave Deferlemont for his shoot off for the 20ga. which he won a scant 30 mins. before our shoot off on the Bo-Whoop. I feel pretty good about holding my own against not only a great shooter but a really great guy. See you next year Dave.![]() I thought I should mention that our own Mike Smith ran a 10/10 on the shoot off for the Letterman cup against the formidable Frank Srebro to take the trophy. Way to go Mikey. ![]() Way to go Frank! Did'nt recognize you with your hat on right. Thanks again to Mike K., A Roll, Jim Malone and anyone else I might have missed for a well run event.

This was by far the best shoot Ernie has had in a while. New equipment and good target presentations made for a nice weekend.
I shot the Bo Whoop for the first time after shooting the course with The Growler and did ok but I wish I had taken The Valley Girl (BHE 32 inch 20) out for a dance on the course.

I will Pete. The targets on the Bo-Whoop were at least 40-45yds. when broken by that load. Maybe Mike K. will chime in with the distances as I know he ranged them. All I know is that load did'nt just break them, it crushed them.

I agree with C.O.B., I can only recall a few broken targets out of the traps all weekend. The traps didn'break down so the squads didn't back up to bad on the stations. We only had a few brief showers on Thursday and Friday and although it was humid, the temps weren't too high.
