These kids shot very well. Each boy were shooting Ithaca SxS low gun and I witnessed one boy named Sean clean sweep a station.

At least one of the boys was shooting a Browning BSS 20 and from what I understand Morris from RST donated the ammo for the kids.

To me the courses seemed reversed as the smallbore was better suited for a largebore and vice versa. I shot the largebore course with a 20 and did OK but shot the main event with a 12 and 3/4oz loads. Those 6 birds on station 2 coming off the hill just killed me. I broke 5/6 with a 28 the day before and only managed a 1/6 with the 12 the next day. Go figure.

Station 2 killed me too - I've never shot well on dropping birds like that.

I was pretty tickled with myself at the pond station with those two L to R screamers - I broke the first bird, missed the second but smashed all the others including the true pair. But the rest of my shooting doesn't warrant discussion.
