Good luck. I have some RST but am afraid to shoot them as I don't know where more will come from.

Just a reminder . . . . Just a few weeks away if you have not made travel plans

Elaine and I are coming for a day to look at guns, etc. I had intended the trip to attend the HOF banquet. I've been to the "tent" in the past, but only run into a very few members (I assume most are very much engaged breaking clays out on the course). Is there any sort of informal gathering outside of the competitions? There are some members I'd sure like to meet some day.

Most members who attend congregate around the tent Saturday afternoon for the Smith-Parker shoot off. Otherwise, people kind of trickle through the tent between shooting or viewing the big tents with all the vendors.

A small get together would be great, but people seem more interested in socializing and saving room for dinner somewhere else. I bought some chips and other snacks one year and did not get a lot of takers.

Can anyone tell me more about the 16 & 20 gauge event held on Thursday I believe?

I was trying to find where this was talked about, but did not find it, I think you had said that this was not a Parker/Smith event, Mills?

The 16 and 20 events were pretty informal and not official PGCA events. Best thing to do is show up Thursday to shoot. Rick Hemingway was recently in charge of the events but not sure if he still is.

Here is the latest announcement from Deep River. Everyone should be making final plans now and I look forward to seeing many of you there.

Thanks Mills,
I just haven't heard really much about these events, are they hammer & hammerless, any maker?

In the past it has been Parker vs. Smith, so one of those two makers was required. I am pretty sure it is very informal. I doubt they would not let you shoot with another brand but your score might not count.

Hammer or hammerless are both fine, if the rules are as in years past.
