Here's the new ad for our July SxS shoot....

Yes sir I’m only doing two multi day shoots this year I think , Spring Southern and Rock Mountain !

[Mike of the Mountain]

A couple items to add.

1) We will be adding a 30 bird field event in 8g for our manly shooters who can't get enough of the big guns! There will be a trophy for that event.

2) Christine from RST said if anyone wants RST shells to go onto their website and see what is available. You can call and speak with Chris or leave a voice mail or send her an email with your order. Chris will bring the shells to The Rock and will bring anything extra they have on hand for sale. That'll save you a lot of $$ since you won't be paying freight and hazmat charges.

So you’re 8 event will be on the course this year and not the five stand or you will do 8 gauge events on both ?

No Craig, there will be the usual 30 bird 5-Stand 8g plus the Field Frenzy 8g on the course. 6 stations, 5 birds per. One single A (two shot option), report B-C and a simo A-C.

Field event can be shot Thursday through early Saturday afternoon. 5-Stand will be sometime Friday when everyone is ready to shoot it.

Here's another update on our Northern SxS......

1) Poulin Auctions will be accepting consignments for their Fall auction to be held November 4-6. You can bring your items to The Rock and give them to Malcolm who will be here representing Poulin.

2) Great Bay Outfitters will be setting up as a vendor too with some fine vintage guns for sale.

3) RST will bring any ammo ordered from their website to The Rock for you so you can save on shipping costs. Chris will also bring extra shells when we makes her deliveries.

4) The Super Sporting course event is now a trophy event and will count for any Iron Man scores.

5) We are still discussing the possibility of adding a Field Gun 5-Stand event for any gun 6 lb 13 oz and under. Daryl and I have to work out the details. There might be $$ awarded 50-30-20 instead of a trophy.

Since we will have two 8g events of 30 birds each, for those who shoot both events, we will us the combined 8g scores as one part for Iron Man scores. As most of you know we take one Main Event score and five 50 bird event scores and total them to determine who wins the Iron Man award. That'll make certain 8g shooters happy! You're welcome.

On a side not as an added incentive to shoot both cannon events . There will be a combined HOA trophy for the two 8 events . So theoretically you could win three 8 gauge trophies . One for five stand , one for the field event and a third for the combined score of the two events .

[Mike of the Mountain]

Correct.
