It is my sincere hope that the five stand at Backwoods will be more shooter friendly

Even though further away it was more friendly than 1 or 3 IMO. I had better luck with it on the way up although about everyone else shot it or shot at it falling.

I haven't scampered anywhere since I was 14. Those traps were not adjustable to throw a curl, just up and down. This ain't Rock Mountain you know.

Craig's comment about the difficulty of the Backwoods 5 stand reminded me of an important piece of side by side history. The Backwoods contribution to the Southern Side by Side 5 stand brought 32 inch full choke double guns back into shotgun games after years of being stuck in closets.

Bill I didn’t have the speed bag there . That’s for tower shoots . I’m down for five tower shoots at Prospect Hall this season and plan on shooting 10 gauge at all of them . The speed bag holds 75 of my 10 gauge loads which is about all I shoot at one of John’s tower deals .

He is very style conscious and accessorizes nicely. He’s a veritable Beau Brummell!!
