After missing my 16th straight at trap using Dave's VHE Trap gun I told him "I think I'll just go drown myself in the pond..." to which Dave replied "Do you think you can keep your head down that long?"

Thanks Larry and the rest of you guy's I think.... I ended the day with a 69 out of 100. Two bird's short of third so I was kinda happy. But the high light of my day was shooting John's .410 skeet gun. That is one hard hitting gun! I am gonna post an album here in a minute for all to enjoy.

All the practice yesterday paid off. Scott can verify, I shot a drake mallard high overhead pass at 60 yards with my mighty 10, it was coming down near verticle and still showing some signs of life and I hit it again with my second shot . (Of course he also watched me miss an incomer at 25 yard up after the first barrel was a dud). Scott got a decoying black duck. Getting out hunting today so late in the season with such warm temps was a bonus. |

Damn - all I know is I had to clean my little .410 when I got home from all your shooting - and now I'm down about 100 rounds of my .410 reloads...??!!! Now that the Parker is cleaned up - down to the reloading bench I go.... John |

John, Dean called it a pea shooter because he couldn't hit anything with it....Maybe it's time to send Dean to the Rich Anderson Shooting Academy.....
Wait a minute.....Bob Fabian helped use up some of them .410 shells too ya know.....

Trick Shots
Thanks Pete for a great day and thanks to Greg Miller, who I met Saturday, for the good words about my shooting.
Those trick shots I do with doubles on skeet station 8 are the result of a different kind of gun fit. As I pick the gun up, and rest it on my hip before the call, both index fingers are parallel to the barrel axes. When I see the bird I point to it with both hands and the right finger goes to the trigger; I finish the mount and take the second bird. Best, Austin |

WOW! You're pretty hard on your friends... I'd hate to be on the 'other side'. I'll have you know I finished 5th overall and both my skeet rounds were with my .410 Skeet-er and John's .410 VHE and, may I add, both are dedicated skeet guns. I shot miserably at skeet with my 28ga. Repro because of gun function failure. |
