Sure we can all think what we like or check with the IDNR. No shooting! The above quote from the recent post by username santos quoting the IDNR...
Shoots start at 11:30 am and will be shot from various yardages. Events will be 10 birds. Club is just south of Rogers, OH at the corner of...
Jan 31 is the Iceman Shot at Columbiana Fish & Game. Shooting starts at 9:00 am. Club is just south of Rogers, OH at the corner of Middle Beaver...
pm sent to Uncle Sam.
Leonidas.....Was there a vote taken by the port authority there to do that? I do not recall that.
In 2003 at the time of "the announcement" many of the Ohio and PA shooters (especially OH) put their guns down and never shot another ATA target....
The handicap events were hurt even worse than the singles events. It is not as if the singles caught up. The competition shoot (where the money...
No....it cant be. Leonidas just said "the same problem exists throughout the whole country."
Not all states are create equal.
The ATA used to have over 3,000 in the singles at the grand? How is that working out? The ATA lost 2/3 of its members. Sporting Clays is...
It doesn't matter does it. They can throw harder targets without an EC member shutting down the shoot. Ask me if that ever happened? As to the...
Leonidas....so you change your argument now and again have to walk it back. My state is not catching up with Illinois. My state is doing better...
This would be a great time for one of Neil's graphs.
Not! The rest of the country does not have Illinois problems. My state has been having balanced budgets.
Target counts are down nationwide since Neil's lifetime achievement was implemented. The other issue keeping target counts down is the disaster in...
Should not be such a big deal regardless of the size of the shoot. It could be done much like Indiana does the assignments for late registration....
Anyone at the Dixie Grand? Let us know info about the shoot.
It would be good to hear what is happening there.
Iowa Guy So publicly Gipson sends a letter to Illinois accusing them of defaulting on the last broken lease. Illinois does not remedy the...
Reminds me of that call. Not so sure it was a dream now. Hello is Jack Fishburn there? Hey Jack. Lynn Gipson here. Whats that? You say we got...
Unless the ATA is fibbing negotiations to replace the lease Illinois defaulted on have not begun yet. And will not begin until April. (if Illinois...
If I gave you $250,000 that was ear marked from construction I would say I financed it. The delegates voted for it. They cant hide from their due...
The delegates financed it. Call it a donation to the HOF although it was really was a donation to the State of Illinois as the State owns it. Had...
FlaLagarto The following is for you as I knew you would not want to look up the facts. From Oct 18th post....
FlaLargarto...On the site if you read it you will find somewhere where the ATA paid big bucks for a marketing firm to survey the ATA to see what the...
FlaLargarto read up on the forum. The delegates voted to give $250,000 to the HOF. The minutes are available on this site. No need for you not to...
No need to rent it for the summer? Reports on the forum are the U.S. Open is scheduled for the IL State Home grounds and the SCTP Shoots are...
The other offers were not permitted on the table for vote. They were there in plenty of time. Reports are Acklin was awarded a 54k gun for his...
No....see the SCTP thread!
If true, this is a huge triumph for the SCTP organization. We were under the impression that not all the t's had been crossed on this deal.
1. No mention of the shoots that will be there other than the grand. 2. No IDNR Director. 3. The governor was a no show for the second time....
I am weeping / laughing so hard I am gonna bust a gut muscle! Costello said it was impossible to predict what would come of future budget...
No from me! Any bets?
That depends what table you are talking about. If you mean the items that were permitted to be on "the table" by the EC. Those items were kept off...
Mr. Fishburn did not build that by himself. It was a huge project with people involved from 4 states. It seems to irk you. It is not leaving....
In less than a week (if Merlo is right) it sounds like we will get the ole quote from the great one....Paul Harvey. Now you know the rest of the...
Guessing you think that is Hunter Edwards that appeared in the SCTP thread. I doubt it. Those guys are competing in the "Super Singles Event."...
PIQUA — Robert "Bob" Vernon Havenar, 75, of Piqua, passed away Saturday, Jan. 9, 2016, at 12:55 a.m. at the Upper Valley Medical Center in Troy. He...
Leonidas wants the source. Evidently the ATA is not a good enough source nor is the HOF website. In my opinion Gipson has a major conflict of...
Only the ATA minutes and a forum that is full of discussions about the money given to the Illinois owned HOF building. Leonidas....do you mean other...
Gipson's remarks to a local paper seemed to imply that they have the $2.1 million dollar HOF building on their mind. The building was built with ATA...
3:30 pm Corey Rheinecker, City Mangager Sparta, told me several times that he has not spoken to or heard from Merlo. He did seem to imply that he...
Late as usual. Probably got a flat on his bicycle on the way to the computer at the Sparta library.
Leonidas makes a decent point. What state parks make money? Answer: not many. The other question is how much money does Illinois have? Answer:...
There are reports out of Sparta (not from Merlo) that tickets are sold out! This despite Merlo's prediction that the governor will be a no show....
Gipson said a basic framework has been agreed upon. He said details are expected to be released in a formal announcement at 3 p.m. Friday at the WSRC...
No mention in the press release about the lease/contract that the State of Illinois defaulted on. That default at the direction of Governor Rauner....
If the governor cancels....send in the clowns. [ATTACH] If Merlo says he is going to cancel then he will cancel.
Merlo says the governor isn't even showing for the big shin dig. Says he will cancel. What does that tell you?
Mdj67 In your discussion with WPT you two talked about Unions, , 2nd amendment, Sparta, and don't talk about Sparta, and unskilled union workers,...
