TRAP SHOOT JAN 1ST CARROLL COUNTY GUN CLUB

[Bolts Rock]

I was going to cover that topic (not necessarily the fart part, but since you brought it up) once we were there.

Wasn't it you who found that out?

I have an 870 I can loan for the event.

 

[Mr H]

I fixed it..................

My comment stands... in a stiff wind...

Lou forgot to mention that it isn't just voices that can activate the trap, letting a semi-auto slam shut or violently closing a pump gun in a low position can set it off. So can can a loud enough fart.

I really don't remember doing that at CCGC, perhaps it was at North American R&G last May. Maybe that's why they were pissed at me???

New trap chootin' rule:
No farting in the voice activated mikes.

You are correct as to the club location.

 

[Raineman]

Lou, change my status from "interested" to "IN +1". Buddy of mine is loaning me an extra BT-99 and he is coming along as well.

 

[Rockn93yj]

interested

 

[TonyB.]

I am willing to let anyone borrow my gun as long as they're shooting on a different squad.

 

[shootin the breeze]

I am going to try to make this. If I can, you are welcome to use my gun.

Great! Hope you make it. Looking forward to finally meeting. I won't lube your gun like Lou though.

 

[Keystone70]

Put me as down as probable.

Is there a certain membership required to attend? Im new to the site. I have the (cough cough) Mossberg 500 Ducks Unlimited shotgun. Never shot clays before and im not to sure on the barrel length. Ill try to measure it tonight. I know it has a modified choke.

Membership is not required to attend this shoot. Modified choke on 12 gauge with 28" or longer barrel will do well. Bear in mind, you must use 2 3/4" shells with #7 1/2 or #8 lead shot, NO 3" or larger shells allowed.

Looks like my youngest son and I will be there, I'll know for sure on Tuesday.

[jessestone]

Pretty sure I will make it.

Somebody might want to think about giving the range a heads up that there will be this many additional people there on New Year's Day. They are already having a shoot and things will be crazy enough. Maybe let them know that it is going to be even crazier than they think so they can staff accordingly. I know the last time I was there and we were running a couple extra traps on top of what the league was shooting, the guy running the show looked a little frantic, and the "yays" in this thread are a lot more than what was there the last time I was there.

But only 3% of them will actually show up.

Yeah, that might actually be true. However, quite a few of us have been showing up at CCGC for trap shooting. I am quite sad that I will not be able to make it on New Year's Day. I like shooting with everybody up there, but this time around it isn't worth a divorce.

Aaahhh, before I created this thread on 12/08/14, I asked CCGC on Sunday 12/07/14 if we, "The Lou Crew and some other MDShooters with an estimated head count of 15 to 25, could do this on Jan 1st during their open to public "fun shoot day". Their response was yes we can and also made the point to go outta' their way to see that I have their club sheet (8.5"x11" paper) with the date and time for this 01/01/15 event. The sheet was nothing near complete in regard to details so I asked and wrote them down accordingly. It was also brought up the possibly exist that we may get our own trap and trap. If help is needed with our crew in reference to trapper duties, I'm pretty confident that I could help keep things running smoothly.

Good foresight.

Loading the trap isn't really all that hard as long as they have targets in the trap house. Just disconnect the power (i.e., usually a switch) and start loading it up. Some of those machines can hold a crap load and a half of targets though, and if that is the case it might be best for two people to load it up.

I really wish I could make this, but such is life.
