Got the Browning 725 today and it is a work of art. Maybe the swelling will go down in my neck this year so I can shoot it.

Talk is the sporting clays may open again.

I shot it years ago but you needed 4 guys. Too many cheap bastards here.

There were guys who shot skeet or trap twice a week and the sporting clays once a week. Top score was 84.

Then some dude from Italy shows up and pops 92 on his first round. He was here for the Canton pigeon shoot.

$10k plus an invite to get in. Then you spend $10 large ON UP for the ante in poker or the pigeon shoot.

You stand 20 yards from 3 boxes, each having a pigeon that might or not have a wing clipped to alter flight. These boxes are about 20 feet apart. Stand at the post and drop in a slug. Might be instantly or 30 seconds but a pigeon will pop out of a box, but you don't know which. You have to kill it in 15 yards, not knock it down but kill it to have it count. Hitting or missing one pigeon might be worth $500k.
