Bringing back Trap & Skeet

[Saltwater60]

I’ll have to swing out one of these days. Ten X shooting club has put together a pretty successful youth league and maybe you could tie in with them since they stop this coming week or next week and pick up the kids for their league for trap. I know they have a school or two that shoot air riffle and .22 there. Good guys there.
I should stop out one of these days, but I have a lot going on right now.

Guess I am going to brag a little bit one gets to do that every now and then.
I had a great season with Trap this year. I decided to go all in and got myself a real trap gun. I bought a Browning Citori CXT White. Wonderful gun. 32” ported barrels smooth action, 70/30 POI, ejectors all the bells and whistles of a good trap gun. The wood on the thing is gorgeous and the fit and Finnish are top notch.

well that gun got me shooting in the 22-24 ranges and I got my first 25 this year.

I actually finished out the year in B class but wound up winning C class as people in C class did it make it to enough matches to qualify for a trophy at the end of the year.

Got a sweet pouch at the award’s picnic


Trap is great to do. But with that said don’t be a fudd and make sure to take part in all sorts of different matches from pistol, rifle and shotgun. I’m fact to keep in practice off season @dsdmmat has a great monthly mail match on this forum people should do.

I already bought all the ammo I need for next year so May couldn’t come faster.

Great to hear. I've stuck with it and it's kind of become my main function at the club. I still do the long range, .22 shoot, 3D Archery and such but shoot trap usually twice a week.

I bought a decent starter shotgun and then picked up a deal on a POS shotgun. I've actually been shooting that one since and I've had 5-6 25's with it. May not look and feel high end but the scores don't show it.

We're hoping to continue our program and even looking to get involved with other clubs as they seem to be seriously struggling right now.

As always, feel free to come up and shoot events at our club.
