5. Another 6 for 6 for Georgie

That was actually me announcing a 6 for 6 for Smitty on his way to winning the 10 bore. I was his official scorekeeper. We only had 15 minutes to shoot his round.

Anyone seen my bottle of bourbon? Sure I had it on Friday . What a fabulous weekend. I do greatly enjoy shooting my Parkers, but it is all of you who make it wonderful. And for all who inquired where My wife was, she just called to say that Anja earned her field championship this weekend in upstate NY.

The "Hell Hole" station is my favorite out of all we have!! I love driven pah-tridge!! Don't forget that WNEP 16 was here and filmed a show on Friday for their PA Outdoor Life which airs at 6:30 PM on Sundays. It's been on the air for 33 years. This episode will most likely air the first Sunday of October and will be available on their website at 7:00 PM. You will be able to post the show on this site. BTW, a Fox BOD steered them to the Parker booth and the artifacts on display, especially John Browning's A Grade!! Looking forward to viewing it.

They certainly had it all. They should have called this the Northern 3D Shoot. There were targets on every axis. Directly overhead through a break in the trees incoming and outgoing. From the edge of a ravine deep into the canyon tracking birds along the bottom of the gully. I have heard of high birds in Scotland, but this course had birds that were way out of range at their peak , but if you were patient they would come within range and could be broke at conventional distances. On the 5 stand I never did see the 6 bird on the simo pair. It was in plain sight had I been looking in the right place a bit faster... Master Frey,however, dusted it in the course of turning in a winning score of 24/25. All I can say is Well done Team Parker.

And the "Hell Hole" station is my least favorite, and Doctor Mike the target setter knows it. I dropped 4 of the 6 birds on that station. Driven birds? Yeah right. That first one was high and smokin.

Reminds me of when I shot the NSCA PA State Championship at Rock Mtn a few years ago and was in a three way tie for first place in the SxS event. So the good Doctor (who wasn't into classic doubles then) decided to have a shoot out on the Make a Break field but without using the #1 birds and with simos on the others. And I'm shooting a double trigger Fox and the two other gents had modern single trigger/high rib competition doubles. Yeah Mike, I'm not gonna forget that one either.
