Hi,
My wrist has healed enough to shoot the shotgun. Yeah!! I went wobble Trap shooting a few days ago. Shot two rounds of 25 and my wrist is feeling good. My shoulder though is a bit sore : (
It was a long 4 weeks of recovery. I am now using the free weights of 5 lbs and 8 lbs to strengthen my wrist. I am so glad it was my left wrist. I am right handed. Whew!
Next week is the beginning of an 8 week trap league at our club. I am going to practice on Friday to make sure I am ready for the season. I'll keep you up to date on my progress, and hopefully another win as top lady.
I also began practicing with the cross bow for the deer season which starts in September.
My plan right now for the doe only month of September is to first take the 41 special handgun out deer hunting. Then if I take a doe I will switch over to the crossbow and see what happens. The month of October is bow season only. During October I can take a buck or doe. That will be a nice challenge.
The USO sponsored a Wounded Warriors trap and skeet shoot at my gun club. Benelli and ATK provided guns and ammo. My club provided volunteers to help the participants with scoring and instruction. I had a really good time with the groups of Army, Air Force, Marines and their family members that came to the event and shot at my station. I think there were at least 80 participants that Saturday. It was a wonderful day and everyone had fun.
Wish me luck with both the Trap League and the Deer Season. Thanks!
Take care, good hunting and good shooting.
M.
