First night of my first ever Trap League shoot
I am glad to say that I did not embarrass myself at the first night of the Trap league.
There are 12 teams, my team in #10. Each team has five people. We shot two rounds of 25, which went surprisingly quick, maybe 30 minutes. The league started at 7 pm with my team shooting at the 7:30 pm time slot. At this time of year dusk is just starting as I was shooting. Even with the overhead lights it was sometimes hard to pick out the clay bird.
I shot 20 out of 25 the first round, and 19 out of 25 on the second round. I was happy with that, knowing I can improve over the next 7 weeks. My husband shot 24 and 24!! Good Going! My team ended up the night in 6th place. In reviewing the scores I am pretty much in the high middle grouping of scores. My husband is in the middle of the high range of scores. One of the guy actually shot two perfect rounds of 25 each. Maybe someday ...
As we continue through the next 7 weeks, the sun will set earlier and earlier. I expect in about 3 weeks we'll be shooting totally after sunset. I wonder how the shooting will be with the overhead lights. I have always shot during the day light hours. Hope it is not to hard to do, but I guess that is just another challenge I can overcome.
Take care, good shooting and good hunting.
