I think you need to take the age of a person into consideration when they talk about the golden age of trapshooting. I'm sure Roger Smith does...
Agree with him or not Neil wasn't afraid to speak his mind.
Roger C, 175 on the All American Team? It's about 275!
Why would the ATA have any reason to "get rid of" Dave? I think if you're taking Dave's side just because you're anti ATA, you are ignoring all the...
;) I was there Roger, was actually one of the squads who shot the practice traps. I knew WPT's numbers were off.
WPT, 2600 entries in the Sunday handicap at Phoenix?
Can't think of a bigger one? N E McCorkle and Earl Scripture maybe. The haters have made this a big deal but it really isn't. It will pass and Dave...

Hunts, no not my pic, was sent to me. When I say not much difference, I mean that both ways. Could and should have left them at 3 hole equivalent. I...
Nothing better has come along yet the way it looks.
Family, are you implying Fishburn would have built for the ATA/Grand?
Illinois/Sparta built a range for the ATA. OK....... Built a range that the ATA is renting until something better comes along.
Damn, Family guy you should have been in charge. A "fishburn" means anyone with money to say, hey we will build you something. Well I guess Sparta...
Family, I think most of us agree with those items but the folks in charge of the ATA had to find a way to pay for the new playground. Should we/they...
We miss Vandalia and many others. Jaqua's, Reno, Vegas, Red Mountain, Phoenix, just to name a few. Why are they gone?
Family, if you think that the target angle change is the only thing that helped increase scores, I don't believe you are a 27 yard shooter. "they...
Blaming 2 versus 3 hole targets for all the ATA's problems is silly. Not that much difference. The "Harlan's" of the game will deal with it the best...
"willing to work hard for the sport?" Bitching and second guessing on some internet forum won't cut it?
You may as well ask "does anyone miss the good old days?" and cover most any topic.
Ok Flyers, today we're putting you in charge of the ATA. What's your first couple of moves? Serious question.
I just check in once in a while to see if the ATA haters are still living under a cloud, and it seems that's where they like to be.
FG, serious? I didn't know that.
It's always been about time and money. Vandalia or Sparta, closer or farther for someone. Heck even the smaller shoots, time and money dictates...
In the end PT&S probably did do the best they could with what options they had left. I'm thinking we both agree that we are lucky the ATA didn't use...
WPT, there are a lot of us who are really upset about how Phoenix Trap & Skeet was allowed to close. Would it do any of us any good to constantly...
Yes it is bitching. You can compare all you want. One is here and the other is gone. You can enjoy what we have or bitch about what we don't have,...
Sparta is a fantastic facility. I wish Vandalia had been built 10 more miles "out in the country" so it could have stayed where it was with room to...
"the beer tent at Vandalia WAS"......WAS, is the operative word guys. It's gone, get over it.
User....the sight of someone or actually a small group, going off the deep end will draw a crowd.
Trap 2, just because someone breaks a target at a far range does not mean that he can consistently do that. I'm sure you've patterned your gun at a...
Rumor is that GreenDot will no longer be made.
Cast iron? My Ponsness looked worse than that and I only used new shot. Probably loaded 150,000 rounds thru it. I put in a new plastic gear on the...
Tell us about the Titus-Detelich shoot-off. What was weird about that?
I'm thinking Neil went to his back yard and is debating a tree stump.
Neil .... 1 jhunts & Ollie .... 0
That's sad. How can we blame the ATA for this?
