Week 9 - Hammer Time

The Local 505 is standing tall and putting the hammers to the clay. Mike lead the team again in week nine and earned the prestigious top gun award. Alex was back on the line after two weeks of business travel. John was away on vacation.

Week 8 - These dogs hunt

The Local 505 pounded the targets in week eight and Mike earned the team Top Gun award. Alex and John were M.I.A. as they were out of town on business travel. Only four weeks left in the season.

Week 7 – Class AA Baby

The first half of the season is over the the United Clay Busters are, once again, in Class AA. They finished third overall at the club. Not bad for how lousy their season started. Congrats to Sports Products for the first half Championship. The Local 505 hopes to meet you again for a Championship shoot off in August.

The state of the Union is strong. The Local 505 shot solid team total especially considering Alex was traveling on business and will be making up his score. Congratulations to Jeff as he posted his highest career score with some very fine shooting. John earned the team Top Gun award in week 7.

Kelly and Mary shot an early practice / makeup score on this hot and humid July night. They did a real nice job hammering the clay.

Cupcake Shoot 2013

This Local 505 member made a quick Saturday afternoon trip to the Sauk Prairie trap range between Babe Ruth tournament baseball games. Their targets are cupcakes compared to the OSC.

Their trap houses sit around 18 or 20 inches out of the ground because they are able dig deep pits. Not possible in the OSC lowlands.

Their machines are calibrated and launch beautiful targets.

Week 6 = Record Breaking

Week 6 – where do we begin. Well, let's see. The season is half over. Alex was MIA on vacation in Door County. Mike pounded the sh#t out of the clays and earned the shiny team Top Gun title. Shawn was one bird off the Top Gun title and he posted his highest score ever. The Local 505 posted their highest team score ever and the highest team score of any team at the club this year. The United Clay Busters are poised to do some serious damage in the second half of the season. Roll tide.

To say the mosquitos were bad tonight would be an incredibly gross understatement. It felt like a scene from the horror movie “The Swarm.”

Week 5 – Make Up Date

The Local 505 took advantage of the holiday bye week to make up their week five scores. The sump pump is working again and the lower trap field was firing on all cylinders. John was the team top gun in week five.

 Alex and Jeff could not make it this week due to family conflicts so they used their bank scores. Rick P. joined Shawn, Mike and John and helped the team keep their rhythm. Rick is a long time friend of the Local 505 and is very handy with a shotgun.

Harps crushed his average again this week with some damn fine shooting. Mike and John also introduced Shawn to their “Hunt Club” shooting course which, once again, proved to be a ton of fun.
