I won...

Please note I am simply bragging from the standpoint I have never one any $ or prizes from shooting.

We had our company picknick on Friday. You could shoot in a company tournament (skeet and Trap) (15 targets Skeet/ 15 targets Trap) or chase a little white ball around a piece of land that is a deliberate missuse of a perfectly good rifle range. I chose the Shooting.

15 targets not a typical round of skeet or trap but you shot singles from every station. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 then shot 8 LH.
I dropped the LH on 2 in skeet.
trap you shot 3 from each station. Hit all the trap birds.

For my efforts I got a whopping $100.

Congrats 100$ is a 100$ better than sharp stick to the eye

Nice! I dont know why I get exited too when I win something... I have spent thousands of dollars getting "good" enough to win a few things. When I do win its something goofy like a key chain or a box of ammo, but I've never done as well as $100.

Good result

I often imagine winning a 50/50 which is up to a grand or so - never do of course! Did have some luck a few years ago tho - won a Savage 99c and L1A1 all in same year! That's my luck used up tho!

Congratulations! My trap shooting has gone in the tank lately. I am in a real batters slump so to speak so I am glad someone is hitting those clay birds with consistency.
