The different characteristics of individual sportsmen are strongly marked by their demeanour under various cir- cumstances. We find among them several types. The most distinct of these are the habitually fortunate men. There are those who, wherever they are placed, whether by lot or by selection, seem to others to get the best of the shooting - so much so, that they are jokingly credited with some mysteri- ous power of attracting game. There are those who on the contrary, are certain to complain that they have been most unlucky. They will call attention to the fact that others have had more shooting than themselves, and wonder how it so consistently happens that they never get the best of luck. A parallel line of contrast may be drawn between those that are satisfied and content wherever they arc placed, and As it stands at the moment, the World DTL event is to be those who, if left to their own choice, would prefer to take held in Wales at the end of July 1999. This is approximately one week after the British Home International and one week any other place than their own .

If this turns out to be case, then it should present an excellent opportunity for trap ment is almost invariable. The score does not depend solely upon the number of opportunities, but on what use has been shooters to partake in a once in a life trap shooting experi- made of them".

I have no doubt that some people will argue that they are entitled to shoot birds only or to take part in practice only. If this is the case, then we must ask if the club would exist without it being "an approved club" by State Law. The answer is no . clubs arc approved only on the proof of its members being registered with an approved shooting body such as thc ACTA. We are only able to negotiate our low insurance premiums on the number of registered members we have, therefore the more members of our Association, the more we can achieve I am not aware of any other sparting/shooting organisation allowing this practice to exist. There arc many more reasons TRAP, SKEET, FIELD MODELS for clubs to discontinue this practice, and I have no doubt I will be "hauled over the coals" by some in regards to this, but please, we are here for our shooters and we can only achieve EXTRA BARRELS, ADJ STOCKS ETC. results if everyone stands up and is counted.

Old ajo highway visitTucson.org 2012worldcup.tucsontrapandskeet.com (520) 883-6426 | toll free (888) 530-5335 COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. USA Shooting is pleased to introduce the official 2012 Media Guide for the Tucson World Cup. Since participation in the first Olympic Games in 1896, American shooters have won over 100 medals. Though the events have changed over the years, the spirit of the Games remains. The title of the media guide is “Creating Legends on the Road to London” because American shooters have been so successful in the past and the future is equally lustrous. While there are many opportunities to shoot competitively in the United States, USA Shooting offers world-class athletes the opportunity to achieve Olympic and Paralympic dreams. “To me, the concept of wearing the USA on my back in the Paralympic Games in 2012 means that I have found my way through the fear factor. I have found a new sense of self and I have not only leveled the playing field from Special Operations soldier to Paralympic athlete . I have eclipsed all previous expectations of who I wanted to be and created a new pinnacle that exceeded all previous achievements and I did it without the use of my legs,” said 2012 U.S. Paralympic Team nominee Eric Hollen. Hollen is not only a top-notch individual, but also a very talented and hard-working shooter. Holllen was awarded USA Shooting’s 2010 and 2011 Paralympic Athlete of the Year distinction, and most notably, he was recently nominated to the 2012 U.S.

  • The Top 20 of the Worlds Greatest Competitive Shotgunners
    The Top 20 of the Worlds Greatest Competitive Shotgunners Foreword… Competitive shotgun shooting has been conducted from the middle of the nineteenth century therefore making comparisons between then and now very difficult. The competitions have evolved from live pigeon shooting to glass balls to clay targets and the like. Shotguns and ammunition have gone from ball bearings and a muzzle loaded black powder blunderbuss to the state of the art shot shells and shot guns available today. When somebody starts scoring then a competition commences. When the results are recorded then comparisons are inevitable. What I have tried to do is to compare the best of the best. From the original competitions involving live birds to the domestic and international disciplines of trap and skeet and incorporating the relative new sporting clay events that are rapidly growing in popularity. I originally narrowed my list down to 243 names after starting with thousands. Finally I cut it to 100 and I have published the 80 “most notable” shotgunners that did not make my Top 20 list at the end of this book. The final list of twenty of course is based solely on my subjective opinion. Don’t take my thoughts and writings too personally. We all have favourites and feelings that influence our decisions. I have tried to be as unbiased as possible. Some shotgun disciplines record their results better than others. From the records available and the stories that I have been told hopefully I have done these twenty competitors justice. No matter what I trust it will create constructive debate and discussion and at the very least some of our sport’s history will be recorded.
