Austin,
You are welcome to shoot that lovely 20 M37 on the BW but to qualify for the trophy you must shoot an AH Fox SxS. If you really want to shoot a 20, and you don't have one with long barrels and choke, you are welcome to use one of my 20's.
Good luck with the Mad Jack.
Then main goal here is to have fun.
Looking forward to meeting you.

Thanks Daryl,
I patterned the 37 a few months ago, and she shoots real tight so I thought I might hit a few of the longer presentations. If I'm on my game at Ernie's I might take you up on the use of one of your Foxes. My only Fox is a 16 gauge with IC/IC chokes which I will use on the Hunters Clays course.
Looking forward to meeting you also.
Regards,
Austin

Seems to me that Parker, LCS and Ithaca guns have been putting up the winning scores for the SBT cash purse with the occasional second or third place $$ going to a Fox shooter.

I guess we know who that was directed at. No rule says you have to leave your sense of humor at the door.

Let’s just remember - it’s the indian, not the arrow.

Yep that's the phrase but its corollary never seems to be mentioned ..... "No Indian can shoot well with a crooked arrow".

Watch out John, attempting to psyche you out just won’t work os such a cool headed shooter as yourself.

For those unfamilar or hazy on the W C Letterman vintage SBT event, this has not been trap shooting in the conventional sense and with oscillating/wobble outgoers. At least in the past, a mix of the three traps used for the Bo-Whoop Long Range SxS event are used and they may be quartering, screaming crossers, teal, droppers, incomers, etc. The WCL has also been shot from a different butt than the B-W and the clays are of course "on call".

I may have spoken too soon.😳
