Team NFOA Needs Three (3) More Trapshooters: Sunday, 28Sep14
to support the
NEBRASKA SPORTSMENS FOUNDATION 2ND ANNUAL FUNDRAISER

NEBull has suggested that I help organize an NFOA Trapshooting team for the above event, to be held as follows:

Lincoln Izaak Walton League [Lincoln Ike's]
10801 S. 134th Street
Bennett, NE

Sunday, 28 September 2014
1 - 5 PM

Cost is $30/Shooter.

We need five (5) trapshooters to make an NFOA squad. We have two (2) firm commitments; we need three (3) more to fill out the roster.

And I guess if we get over-subscribed, we can easily make up more NFOA teams. And if we get still more shooters, they can be worked in as individuals.

Please Everybody Step Forward and Sign Up by Return Posting at Once.

On behalf of NFOA,

Thank You.

Would love to, but I am already committed to the GRPC in windy that weekend.

I don't know if I was counted as your the second shooter or not, but,

Sign Me Up Coach.

Lee........

You are indeed the Second Shooter.

And we'll probably be shooting your hat at the end of this caper.

So how good do you have to be to join this team....lol? I might have to do some brushing up....I think I have a shotgun around here somewhere.

SemperFiGuy · « **Reply #5 on:** September 02, 2014, 10:35:27 AM »

Good??

It's mostly about shooting, making noise, getting out, and having some fun.

If you actually hit something, fine. That's extra.

Any shotgun that shoots will work. Not sure how many rounds we'll shoot. I just got into this event and will check out the details shortly.

Equipment is simple: Any shotgun. Most folks use some kind of 12ga. X number of shells, to be determined. Protective glasses. Ear protection. I've got some extra belt bags for shells.

So...Let us know soon. Friday is the day to turn in Team Rosters.

If you have a buddy, drag him/her in, too. More fun that way.

Critter, last year I shot my slick black Maverick 88 - its got a new choke and fancy sight- makes for go fast.

splurged for some faster ammo, but not sure it helped me any. There will be some NICE equipment there, but as SFG said its all in fun and support.

The fun at trapshoots is to watch some Good Ol' Boy with a rusty, beat-up Remington 870 in tattered Mossy Oak camo clean the clock of Some Fancy Dude with a $12,000 Perazzi.

Happens a lot.

Can't shoot the engraving.

Critter,
Remember , if you're thinking of using the KSG, you can only load one round.
Round up those shotguns and lets go shoot.
ENGC has a trap shoot Thursday morning, 0800, open to all, fun time.

I'm in, sign me up. Sounds like a lot of fun. I think I better leave that KSG at home Lee, dang thing kicks too hard...lol. I'll use my Beretta A400 Xplor, it's a pretty smooth shooting gun. Guess I better get the wife to start chucking some blue rock for me...lol.

OK....As of Now We've Got:

TEAM NFOA
SUPERCLAYBUSTERS
>LeeM
>Critter
>sfg

Now: Money has to be in this coming Friday. So--I will pay the $30/each for whomever is signed up by 12:00noon Friday, September 5 and get reimbursed by the team members at the trapshoot event on September 28.

It's OK to de-commit up to the deadline of 12:00noon Friday. But cancellations after that date still pay the $30. (Subs in your place will be OK, however.)

OK.........Who Else???

7000+ NFOA Forum Members. We only need two (2) more.

Wow. 7,000+ members and we can't get 2 more to make a team? Tell ya what, I will sponsor this team if we can get 2 more. I will pay the $30.00/person entry fee for this team. $150.00, can't beat that can ya? Come on people!

RLMoeller · « **Reply #13 on:** September 04, 2014, 11:07:23 AM »

That's awesome! Thanks Critter.

Come on guys, we gotta have folks around here that like to shoot!

....and aren't already shooting a match at that time, or have other plans already.

That's the difficult part.

gsd · « **Reply #15 on:** September 04, 2014, 12:00:49 PM »

As stated in another thread, I am shooting in a different match that day.

NE Bull · « **Reply #16 on:** September 04, 2014, 12:55:25 PM »

Ok fine. Checked my schedule and that day is/ was open.
Put me down as a solid maybe. I will bow aside if a better shooter comes along.

Last Call Before Today's Preliminary Deadline:

I'm going dove hunting this morning. (Hope it morphs into dove shooting, but doves are small, fast, and wily. Plus they twist around a lot. Like clays on a windy day.)

When I get back, if anyone else has signed up, their name will be added to the list below.

OK....As of Now We've Got:

TEAM NFOA
SUPERCLAYBUSTERS
>LeeM
>Critter
>NE Bull
>sfg

Need just one more.

Anyhow, after today names can still be added, but the entrance fee goes up to $40 Buck$.
