Quoted from Hayfarmer:Nice pic. What handicap you shooting from?
no idea i just started a month ago. I shoot on a team of five and we shoot from the front position. I really enjoy it though.
Last night went 42/50 .
Quoted from Hayfarmer:Good score for just starting. Our spot closed about 5 years ago due to city expansion. Closest is 40 miles now. Fun sport
This spot is 20 miles from home , takes about 45 min to get there.
I learned they host the Olympic trails here at this location, Tucson Skeet and Trap Club,check it out.
Funny thing is i am shooting with a borrowed gun , i dont have my own yet, that may be a $200 modified shotgun. You should see what guys have to shoot with, If you guys think spending $6500 on a pin is crazy ? i swear one guy told me his gun was $22,000. WTF, Why ?
Quoted from Hayfarmer:Go buy a nice Remington wingmaster. One of the best shotguns ever made. The regulars get pissed at my 1100, semi auto, so I run a rubber band around receiver to stop shell from hitting them haha
Funny,
I've been waiting for my teamate to my right to say something about my shells flying his way !
Been looking at the Tristar TT-15 Sporting O/U, made at the same factory as Benelli .
Quoted from dirkdiggler:I've never fired a gun in my life
me either until last month, i had always wanted to skeet and trap since i was a kid. Go check your local gun club and and give it a try , it really is alot of fun!
At my club, i have been told that they have a place where you can drive around on golf cart and shoot different type of moving targets that come out of the bushes , etc. I look forward to giving that a try . What could go wrong, golf carts & shotguns !
Quoted from Spyderturbo007:Let me guess, you're a Kolar guy? Perhaps Krieghoff?
Well, not exactly.
I call it my Rat Rod Gun , its a borrowed pieced together modified pump 12gauge. Like a $200 gun, but I usually score as good or better than the guys with those spendy guns .
Quoted from Jaybird815:The most chill puppy I’ve ever seen
[quoted image]
You got yourself a water dog right there.
Our neighbors growing up had a big ole golden , Teddy, He literally lived in the pool. Well one day the neighbor Cathy calls my mom to see if we had seen Teddy . Mom responds , well no the boys are sitting in the jacuzzi . Come to find out an hour later ONE of the boys heads in the Jacuzzi was actually Teddy the neighbors dog . He just came over and hopped in with us, and mom looking from the kitchen couldn't really tell who was who .
Thanks for all the thumbs up...
Those 3 pics of last night storm were all taken at the same time .

Quoted from TimBoch:Hole 1 is patterned after #11 at Augusta. The tee is just left of the 3rd green in the top picture and goes to just right of the waterfall. It's about 36 yards.
Hole 2 goes across the waterfall and is a 1/10th scale of #12 at Augusta at 15 yards.
Hole 3 is patterned after #13 at Augusta and is about 33 yards. The tee is from behind the 1st green near the ballwasher and goes to the green in the first picture.

Quoted from Atari_Daze:While my answer may not be agreed upon by all, but since I have many 4 legged friends on my property 24/7, the snake in the picture become a few inches shorter and then relocated permanently to the woods next door.
I will say I make every effort to positively ID creatures as friend or foe. The last one was colored "red on yellow"... it too was permanently relocated after my dog chased it and thankfully listened to me when I yelled at him to stop the pursuit.
Same here .....
Rattlesnakes get dispatched, Kings snakes , Coach Whips and those sorts can move along peacefully.

I know right ! Even admitted he thought he had turned it off. After he told me what had happened I ran over there to meet him , he had jumped in his truck and left me / someone to clean it up. Then conveniently showed up 1.5 hours later after I had taken care of it and said he needed to go het a pallet jack. Total asshat bitch contractor to install the 18 wheeler truck wash. Apparently he's to important to clean up his own fuck up .
