Let's just say, I'm gonna find weather man and kick him square in the ______ (fill in the blank appropriately). Left the house in snow showers and arrived at the club in a snow squall. This is following weeks of 60s, 70s and even a peek at 80 a couple times. Oh well, it is only March.......

The weather didn't deter a group of young shooters that showed up to get some targets in. Some joined the ATA for the first time and registered targets for the first time, they all shot all 300........ Great to see these kids out shooting and the great support they're receiving from their parents and siblings.

We actually had folks from all over, a pleasant young man from California named Matthew Livingston and Jon Reitz, a snow bird returning home to NY state.

It turns out that Jon and I know some of the same people and have shot at several of the same clubs in NW Pa and the Southern tier of New York. Namely among these clubs is the Bradford Gun Club (how 'bout that Freddy!) It is a small world, but one thing remains the same, trap shooters are some of the best people you'll ever meet.

The resident "club geezer in training" appears to be healing well. He was quite mobile at times, until his new knee told him he was over doing it, then he could be found lounging on the couch.

President Hill is heading for the Southern Grand mid week and will be carrying some precious cargo. Be careful Marty. JD Goodwin came out to play and won the two events he entered.

Notably absent were the Millers. Suspicion is that the Barney Mobile won't run when it sees a snowflake. Because of that, WE DIDN"T HAVE ANY CUPCAKES!! They would have gone well with the spaghetti and salad that Grandma Jeri fixed for lunch...........

On to the scores. We had 10 shooters toe the line for each event.

The faithful kept the targets set, the traps loaded, the squadding and cashiering straight, the scores kept and the grounds cleaned up. Great bunch of folks at BGC!

The shoot calendar looks good. Let's support the local clubs as much as possible, they're the rock our organization is built on.

Travel Safe and we'll see you next time wherever it is! Have a Great Day! Dan
