Send me a stern warning???? Go ahead.... It makes no difference to me and I could care less. What are they going to do; kick me out of the ATA?...
It appears that the Il. State government is starting to ask around if anyone else can see the "white elephant" in Sparta's living room.....

Gary... I have tried it all in my desire to return to a pull trigger, to no avail. Nothing, to date, has worked for me. I'm totally convinced, at...
Care to back up that statement with facts, or are you just shooting off your mouth?
Sparta? Closing? [ATTACH] I'm shocked beyond belief!!!! How could this happen???
Bill.... I couldn't agree more. The most valued awards I have ever received in trapshooting are my PITA and ATA 27yd. pins..... You bet I earned...
Hap.... Great shooting, my friend. Hope the remainder of your Grand goes as well... Dan
It's pretty simple, actually. Set the targets as close as possible to the rules guidelines, taking in wind adjustments, etc. and SHOOT THE "FREEKING...
I would like to offer a little clarification here regarding the PITA. The PITA is its own entity, and is conducted as such. Every effort has been...

While loading Windjammers "CAN" be a bit of a pain, that can be easily overcome. Toss the wads into your dryer for about 15 minutes, then take them...
Thanks Gary, but I only used REX I and II. Longshot or Herco for games... Dan

I'm fairly certain that N1H1 will come along and totally prove that what George did is impossible with graphs, equations, etc..... One video is worth...
Gary.... Tell George Digweed his shotgun is maxed out at 27yds. N1H1 doesn't have a clue..... Look at this video and then tell me our shotguns are...
Neil.... After viewing this video, I came to the conclusion that we haven't even approached the limits of a shotgun when shooting trap..... Just...
Roger..... In Neil's college Calculus IV class book, advanced edition, just for smart folks, on page 2673, chapter 98, paragraph 37, it clearly...
Perhaps, just perhaps, some of us that were ATA members in good standing, got a butt full of the ATA, the EC the BOD and their actions years ago. I,...
Does "We told you this would happen" resonate with any of you that thought Sparta was the cure-all for the future Grand location? This scenario has...
Jeez Bill.... I really like your style. Tell it like it is, period. No mamby-pamby B/S for us... My philosophy is simple, "fish or cut bait"........
Right on Bill!!!
Neil... Your shooting achievements are, indeed, impressive, and I applaud your success, however, the achievements that would carry more weight, for...
True Story: Several years ago, the PITA had some negotiating problems with the club that usually hosted the PITA Grand Pacific at that time. Unable...
I am also using Vectan powder. I prefer the GM3 for my 1 1/8oz. loads. It meters extremely well for me using a Mec 9000H with a universal charge bar....
Hap While I agree with you, in theory, we don't have enough time left to take it one step at a time before the bottom falls out. It will be way too...
Crap! I knew I would be drawn into this one since it's always been a pet peeve of mine. I'm sure I will get some flak, but here's my take on the...
Of all the automatic traps I have ever shot over, or worked on, in my 35 plus years shooting this sport, (and there have been many) the one that...
I have also been known to dabble in pot shooting now and then. My favorite loads are very much like Gary's, however, I prefer #5's. I used to shoot...
Gary... Answer to question #1...... 100% of them try it, to some extent, and perhaps 75% are successful enough at it to read the AREA the next target...
Re-read my last sentence iowa guy.... I can't make it any clearer for you than that. My statement is based on a lot of years with the PITA, and I...
You're welcome.....
Let me preface my reply with this statement: I have no authority to speak for the BOD of the PITA, nor can I give you an absolute, concrete answer,...
I can absolutely guarantee you, as a PITA member since 1975, and a past PITA Director, the PITA would not stand for the behavior the ATA has...
