Thanks for posting the results. I had a great time and as usual, Prospect Hall was a first class operation. Looking foreward to the next shoot.

I've attached a sampling of photos that I took this past weekend, mainly of the grounds at Prospect Hall, and our time on the Hunters Clays course. Mark took some great photos of us on the main course, and I tried to do the same on the Hunters course on Saturday. I drove up from NC and stayed the whole weekend from start to finish and had a blast. There were so many highlights that it's hard to mention them all. I shot the 50 round course on Thursday and Friday in 12ga, 16ga and 20ga and shot the Hunters Clays course (40 clays) and the Main Event (85 clays) on Saturday as well. I shot Trap for the first time this weekend, as part of the WV Cup, which was 25 birds from the 27 Yard Line. Thanks to Chuck Brunner for the crash course and to Roger Bain for letting me borrow his Winchester Trap gun for the shoot. Breaking 13 out of 25 with a borrowed gun from that distance, I was pretty happy, and it makes me wish there was a place to shoot Trap where I live. I want to thank Chuck Brunner and all those involved for putting on an amazing event. The course was challenging with some presentations that I've personally never shot before (Poison Birds for instance), and was made even more so for the main event. Jent Mitchell and the Virginia Vintagers put out quite the spread on Friday night, and thanks to George Calomaris for bringing that Palmetto Moonshine! My jar is already half gone. It was great to see and shoot with old friends, and to meet and spend time with new friends like Harold Pickens, Fred Very, Jonathan Engle, etc. This weekend is all about SxS guns, and we sure got to see some fine one's this weekend. Many thanks to Jonathan Engle for sharing his outstanding Fox Collection with us, and that incredible 8ga B Grade Hammer Gun. I seem to recall a few gems from Mr. Murphy too, including the only 30" 8ga Parker made, a "Try Gun" and a very nice high grade double trap. This one is going on the calendar next year for sure, and I hope to see more of you guys there!
