At Warrington SC the 5 stand works me . They’ve got some Hemingway-Koneski long ball targets on the 5 -stand . I’d think 25 or 30 is sufficient .

The buckshot close comment reminded me of an article about a bear hunter in I believe from Alaska. He was known to build a log bear trap and had ordered a Parker with instructions to pattern it for "buckshot close". Nothing more to the story but interesting that yours may have been for gators. Charlie, can you add to this discussion since you seem to be one of the most knowledgeable on the big guns?

I must say having all the 8 bore guys together on the 5-Stand does add to the excitement of shooting these big guns that may be lost by each guy shooting individually out on the course? Stan |

I prefer the 5-stand set-up for the reasons Stan states above, everyone shooting together adds to the excitement and camaraderie. We are able to take group pictures and admire all the big shoulder cannons. I think the 5 stand environment is more friendly to new commers. 25 targets would be better than the current 15 in my opinion. Mike we all appreciate your efforts organizing the 8ga shoot.

Unless someone discovers an 8ga made by Fox we can't really include them in the BoWhoop but I'd be willing to set up a side game for you 8ga junkies and have a little fun competition there. It will be like shooting Annie Oakley or handicapped trap from the 32yd line. Show me the interest in participation and it will be done.

I think this is probably the most interest in the 8 ga in over a 100 years...its a fun gun but because of it s size and weight it aint for everyone but its awesome....I think like craig and the others 25-30 will be enough...some of you guys take some pictures for the rest of us who can t make it to the shoot....I m anixios to get it on....I would love to try a bear or a gator with a parker 8 ga.....charlie

Another 0 frame 16 most likely.
A John Deere Model B for my son. Another Parker 28, but that is kind of a dream.
