Default A Proud Moment For Me

Sorry I don't want to brag but from June 29 to July 3 in Calgary I competed at the Canadian Trap Shooting championships, 5 days 10 events and a total of 1,000 rounds, I shot just average until championship Sunday when I finally got my poop in a group and won the Vet Handicap event, so until next year I am the handicap champ of Canada in Vet class, got a lovely buckle for my efforts and will receive a cheque in the days to come. That's me on the left the other guy is also from Lloydminster and shoots here at the local club, he won a preliminary singles event of Friday

Yes it is a great facility, I really like shooting there and Bob and his staff are first rate, they really run a good shoot right down to the food services, very well done.
