Open LC Smith shoot in Nov - Page 2

Cold Spring · 06-10-2013, 07:56 AM

I live in PA and have shot NSCA sporting clays competitions about 20-24 times at M&M. It's a wonderful facility, not only the huge course but also the clubhouse and facilities. It's south of Phila as a landmark, and easy to access from I-95. For anyone who is "edgey" about taking shotguns into NJ, both the local and state police are familiar with the club and its operations. I've seen police directing traffic at the entrance to the club during large shoots. And I've NEVER heard of a responsible shooter being hassled even at hotels in the area where cased shotguns are commonly brought into rooms same as people bring in suitcases. And i've seen stacks of cased guns here and there in the lobby of hotels in the mornings as shooters were headed to M&M for day 2 or 3. No problems over the 12 or so years since my first registered shoot there. M&M has hosted not only its own tournaments but also the NJ State SC Championships, Zone and regional Shoots, the US NSCA Opens and many others I've probably forgotten. This is the first vintage SxS shoot I've seen advertised there and I'll try to massage my calendar to get that date open for the event.

Looks like a good one. I had no issues getting a hotel room at the Hampton.

Hope folks can make it.

Who is definitely going besides Dr. John? Saturday's in November is prime college football and I don't miss many PSU football games unless it's absolutely necessary! I may consider going if I know many of the Parker brethren are going to attend.

If anyone is a good shooter and looking for the "HOA" recognition, you'll have to shoot a LC Smith in the 75 bird Main Event and the 25 bird 5 stand (per the flyer for the shoot). The other makers are excluded. Also JFI, there is a two day NSCA registered tournament going on at M&M that weekend, and the FITASC event will also be shot on Saturday.

Just looking at the calendar, I will not be able to attend.
