This blogger had Taxi duty this afternoon as his son and three other teenage boys needed a ride home from the Wisconsin Dells. It just so happens the Sauk-Prairie Trap and Skeet Club was right on the way and this Taxi driver brought along his shotgun.
It's no secret among the Local 505 shooters that the Sauk-Prairie targets seem like cream puffs compared to shooting trap at the Oregon Sportsman's Club. The photo above represents three reasons why.
1. The back of the trap house is only 20 inches tall or just below knee high. Compare that to the OSC houses that are at least waist high. I believe the shooter picks up the target so much earlier in it's flight path out of the Sauk-Prairie trap house.
2. Notice the background behind where the targets fly. The background is so clean they use targets with black edges for contrast against the clean skyline.
3. The Sauk-Praire trap machines are calibrated with a speed gun for consistency.
Wireless speakers make everything simplier. The big green remote control is referred to as "the pickle."
