LOL!!!! Dean the really funny part of it is I made the NH state team 5 years in a row shooting an 870 Trap. It was just hilarious to win shootoffs and purses against the guys shooting Krieghof's and Perazzi's. One time when heading to the line for a shootoff in the NH championship the guy gave me crap about my gun in attempt to psyche me out. Fortunately I beat him and apologized to him for it as I knew he could use the purse for his gun payments

Seriously as I entered my late 40's and my eyes changed my scores went down. Scott told me it was because of too much Viagra

you guys sound like you can really shoot! Everyone may need to look away as I shoot...this is my first year back shooting clay pigeons in probably 20 years.......prior to that it was just a few shells a year bird hunting......maybe I should just run the trap! Seriously, I am just getting back into it and am looking forward to shooting again. Any (well almost any) tips will be gladly welcomed.......

This crown doesn't give any tips or advice . . . we just laugh at all the misses and have a ball.
But seriously, all of us are interested in helping each other if we see a shooting fault. I know I have plenty - just ask Anderson or anybody else I have shot with.

According to NECN, the weather tomorrow morning will be suitable for more than dog sleds. I'm planning to join and bringing a lasagna, plastic forks and paper plates...oh yeah, a couple of 12ga - one for nasty weather and one for less nasty. See you tomorrow morning.

Scott and I just got back from the club. We cleaned up the shotgun house a little, moved some gun racks inside, moved cases of targets to the various houses and brought the steamed dog machine down from the clubhouse. We'll have coffee and dogs at a minimum. Hmmmmm......somebody should bring some creamer and sugar cause I can't remember if I saw any there or you'll drink it black.

Since club rates for non-member trap and skeet is $4.50 I decided to round it up to $5 per round. The .50 difference per round goes winner take all for high score on 100 targets 50 trap/50 skeet. Scores are to be kept via the honor system. Ties will be broken via fist fight.

First shots can be fired at 9AM. Facilities will be open no later than 8AM and probably sooner.

I'm looking forward to this, the Crockpot is on and the house smells good (pulled bar-b-que beef). The down side is the police car in the driveway across the street. My neighbor's house was broken into this morning; I know they took his safe but I don't know what else.

Strange that nobody saw anything? All the neighbors are home today! I drove by twice this morning and noticed they were out but didn't see anyone around. He is a young "unemployed white construction worker" with two young girls, 5 & 3 and they are almost always around.

Just so you don't get the wrong idea, I said "white construction worker" in reference to Obama's stimulus money being directed AWAY from that group as per Charlie Rangel and Robert Reich discussion in congress. My attempt at sarcasm.

Now I need to worry when I leave the house!
