We start here on our high school team on March 27th. I'm excited to get out there, and work with a new group of youngsters starting their first year, but it's sure gonna be miserable! 2+ feet of snow at the range now, and no relief in sight!

Not to throw cold water on high school Trap shooting --Bear facts are at what cost? At our club, high school shooter have doubled every year for the past three years.100% for teaching proper gun safety, exposing them to trap, skeet, sporting clay. But club is basically selling the birds for cost to get adult shooters down the road. My big question is how far down the road? After they pay off their college det or after their kids are out of the house? --Love the kids -- But if this trend keeps going we will be throwing more discounted birds than we throw for our cub members.

Here, at our local club where 3 high school teams shoot, the club has their handicap league on wednesday nights. Currently, i would guess that over 50% of the teams that shoot handicap league are people that are 26 and younger. I think there's only 2 teams that are atleast 50+ years old. The team i shoot on, has one of our high school coaches that's right at 51, me at 47, my daughter 20, a young man that's 21, and another one of the kids that shot in high school last year that's 19. There's another team that's 2 dad's and their 3 boys. A bunch of younger kids that are just out of high school. So the club is actually picking up teams of younger kids to shoot their handicap league.
