Looked into the instructions for the flurry today and we will use it in a few weeks. Had 10 shooters today and it worked great except for operator error which was easily corrected. I want to get as many people to operate it as possible so it no longer will need a dedicated puller. That has been the death of the last 2 set-ups in that the same person has to do it or it is closed hence the programable, just push the pull button controller and the traps at 8 and easy turn on and off.

Daniel, we updated our wireless system to a Long Range and it's awesome! We use the T-3 for tournaments and the MT4300 for daily use and we have a dedicated MT-4300 for 5-Stand/games. I really like the voice release for solo shooting. Most of the guys do really like it. One guy doesn't like the voice activated and prefers manual with delay. That's no problem, just a different way to run the shooting.

Mike the only time I used it was the RGS shoot, it was very slick and not one fail to release. Glad to see you jump into the modern century : )

Well, we were wireless for about 3-4 years and we went with a system that better suits our needs with the Long Range. It works much better with our terrain and vegetation. We can even use it for our 3-Bird shoots and not have to use jumpers and gang receptacles and 10 miles of cords.

Mike the MT 4300 is what we are using and so far for this luddite it is very user friendly. Will report back after a month or so on how it is going, we shoot it once a week now and a lot of the usual suspects are on vacation/ summer places so as time goes on more will become acclimated to it.

There is a slight learning curve but once you use the system it becomes intuitive. The "seasoned shooters" just need to get over their phobia of all things techie. They'll like it too. Any questions PM or call me.

Mike:

Neal has his Long Range stuff pretty well figured out. I remember when he started it. Its come a long way. My students used it at Nationals and other majors for many years. Good stuff.

I am trying to work out the possibility of attending your shoot. The Make a Break sounds great as long as that #7 bird is inside of 50 yards. LOL
