NEW - International Wobble Trap Station

We would like to announce the new International wobble trap station within the skeet field @ Silver Willow. Adding yet another shotgun shooting discipline for members and guests. The International wobble trap is designed to be a practice range, for International Olympic trap shooting competitors. Even though its only one machine, it gives all the angles and speeds of the 15 machines that are used in Olympic trap. It operates using a Blue Controller (please ask for this from our reception staff) It is both voice and button activated, using your Sporting Clay targets.

Guest Blog Article - Musings of the Rookie

Stolen Thoughts or Lessons Passed On I’m not sure I’ve ever had an original thought. Everything there is to think has already been thought by someone else. This submission to musings is no different. For the life of me I can’t remember the source, but thanks to the guy who originally posed the question and to the shooter who shared it.   The story goes that the shooter was standing on the trap range as things were getting set up. Apparently, he appeared to be one slice short of a loaf. A friend, realizing that he was not in a good frame of mind for a successful shoot, walked over and handed him a slip of paper. All it said was; Why are you here?
