    It sounds like pro-matic traps have left Sparta and are being installed at the Cardinal Center. This from a darn good source says the international traps and maybe others at the CC are from Sparta.

    My guess is they need to be used some where and they would not be used at Sparta.

    How many traps are going to the Cardinal Center from Sparta? I thought the Cardinal Center already had 52 trap fields and the 14 new Skeet fields were Skeet only, not overlays. Are these traps capable of being set up for skeet? If so they only need 28.

    I was unaware there were international traps in Sparta. Must have built a couple bunkers after they closed up?

    I wonder what they are going to use for the SCTP Regional shoot in May and the U.S.Open in June and the Illinois State SCTP shoot in June

    I call BS!

    Can't call BS on it, but it has nothing to do with trapshooting at Sparta as I don't believe pro-matics were used for any trapshooting. Not sure what they were for?

    This forum really needs you. It would be like having Howdie Doody and no dummy. But we have you. FG posed this question to you. It seems fitting again as you still cant learn. Remember you questioned ccJake about how he could have inside information about contracts between the CC and SCTP. What would someone with username ccJake know?

    Let's make a wager. Not a small one. Make one that will remind you of your post. Make a wager that will hurt. As you say no one has an inside track or idea about the SCTP and their stay at the Cardinal Center. Should be an even up bet right? After all what could I know? We both front the money to Dysinger. So tell me how large a wager would it take to reinforce the issue?

    It only took me a few minutes to do my confirmation. So tell me forum dummy.....how much money will it take? You say promatics are not leaving Sparta for the CC. Wow. So how much? Make it big. Show how truly stupid you are.

    Please forum dummy.....place the bet.

    What is wrong with promatics? Sounds like sour grapes. If they are not going to be used at Sparta then cut your losses. jmho

    I guess I should have directed my questions to Merlo in a private message. Maybe would have gotten straight answers instead of being berated by you and your obvious knowledge of everything pertaining to Sparta.

    You called BS on Merlo on a public forum. You asked no one. You got called out on your Pumpgunbob-like response.

    I am guessing there will not be a bet. Those without knowledge usually are without money. Someday you will have a less than knee jerk response that is surrounded by fact.

    I have learned not to doubt Merlo and I dont have large amount of info about Sparta. I did have the money to afford the quarter to make a call. Only took a few minutes. By then you had proved you are pumpgun. Atta-boy - - this place needs you.

    Ask Merlo or Smithy.

    They seem to know everything

    pgb . . . . bad attitude.

    I am considering putting a trap in for my family. I could use a small tractor and mower.

    The ATA purchased all new Pat traps with the relocation money they had collected over the years ... If there are Pro-Matics there I can't imagine they were on the traps fields unless they replaced a few that found new homes along the way ... The tractor disappeared a long time ago, someone obviously wants to keep it in shape by making sure it gets used all the time ... WPT ... (YAC) ...

    Were these traps loaned to the Cardinal Center or sold to the Cardinal Center?

    Linn Creek in Missouri and Brittany in Illinois share traps occasionally.

    It was a question!

    Read it again here.

    WERE THE TRAPS LOANED TO THE CARDINAL CENTER OR SOLD TO THE CARDINAL CENTER?

    See the question mark symbol at the end of the sentence? Look, there's another one!

    It's the squiggly mark with the little dot under it!
    They look like this?????????????????

    pumpgun, Are you guys sure your talking about the Pat traps? I think pro-matic traps were used on the sporting clays fields at Sparta. Roger C.

    Whatever the traps were that allegedly went to the Cardinal Center from Sparta.

    I've asked a legitimate question about whether the traps were loaned or sold to the Cardinal Center.

    Nobody wants to answer the question. They just want to reply with "ass"inine comments

    It is a "PumpgunBob" moment.
    The OP mentioned pro-matic traps only for international use. :D:)

    Screw you Smithy.

    They didn't throw international trap or skeet targets at Sparta.

    The west end of Sparta is skeet/trap combination fields.

    Who said they did? Please copy and paste.

    The OP implied they throw International Targets at the Cardinal Center.

    Another PumpgunBob moment.

    Maybe Promatic still owns the traps that were moved. Leaving them set idle does not get any advertising for the brand. It may have been a business decision. Why all the bad vibes ? Ask Promatic about the move. Roger C.

    Family Guy,

    Are you sure those came from Sparta?
    There weren't any bunkers at Sparta.

    Well maybe a better question would be, can those machines be used for sporting clays? I would assume had they been used for sporting clays they wouldn't be so clean. These machines look brand new. Must have been stored in one of those moldy buildings.

    I know at one time there was a rumor going around they were thinking of building a couple of bunkers at the WSRC. Obviously with the budget crisis, that's not going to happen any time soon!

    They are brand new and we purchased them. They are international machines not sporting machines.
