    This is in the recent minutes....

    On January 11, 2017, a letter was sent to Mr. Enrique Navarro of Corsivia SA which
    confirmed and verified that their targets are acceptable for use in ATA registered competitions.

    An independent test of the Corsivia 108 MM American trap target was conducted by
    FundacionTecnalia Research and Innovation, and it reports that all targets are within the perimeters.

    Certification is still pending for the Laporte clay target as well as the Vivaz Clay target.

    I guess they ATA never heard the phrase BUY AMERICAN. I'm not a shill for white flyer but I do try and buy American when possible. Keep Americans working so they can afford to shoot clay targets. I hope they do more research on the targets than they did on the location. Get some and run some tests on them. Put them in every other field and do a blind test using average shooters. They could try them at the autumn grand on preliminary day. But make sure no one knows it is a test. Roger C.

    They are probably approving targets to be used in Brazil and other places that shoot ATA targets around the world.

    Frostyman, Be careful, they monitor this site. They may offer you a bridge that they have for sale and then let leonidas man the toll booth. They of course will be in charge of the check book. Roger C.

    Roger, getting on the bridge is free but very expensive to get off. Union rules you know.

    Leonidas, I have worked with the unions, and against them, and I feel they have outlived their usefulness. They do not represent their members anymore many are just thugs. They foster illegals, that hurts the American workers by lowering wages and it hurts the average citizen by putting many low paid workers on food stamps and many other government handouts. We as citizen tax payers support about 50,000,000 people on welfare, that is a shame on our society. Roger C.

    The statement was nothing more than a little "tongue in cheek"response Roger.
