Week 8 Was Delicous

Yes the Local 505 had a blast shooting trap tonight. Yes we posted our biggest team score of the year without someone using a bank score. Yes Mike is leading the club's top gun chase and John is second. Yes Alex posted his highest score of the season. But the real story is Bob and Cathi Fisher treated the Tuesday night shooters to a walleye, smoked salmon, and homemade potato salad dinner. Bob is such a good fisherman he needed to make room in his freezer so he could go catch more walleyes. A big UCB thank you to the Fisher's for such a delicious club dinner.

Alex put in some hard work and posted his biggest non-bank score of the season. Nice shooting Schmalz.

Mike is on his AA game and crushing the targets and the competition. He currently leads the club's top gun chase and if he can hold on, he would be the first Local 505 team member to win the title. MK was TG.

The Harpinator

Shawn is having a career year on the Local 505 and is one of the top 10 shooters at the Oregon Sportsman's Club this season. Shawn is a founding member of the United Clay Busters of America and credits routinely practicing the mount of his gun as the x-factor to his higher scores. Keep up the great work Harps.

Week 7 - The Road to Glory

The United Clay Busters kicked off the second half of the season with a decent score. It didn't feel great to the team but it was still 10 birds over the second place team's average – but who's counting. Alex was M.I.A. as he's in Boston on business. JK was TG.

Special thanks to Harps for hooking up the Local 505 with delicious naturally smoked Oscar Mayer center cut bacon. You missed a hell of a night to be gone Schmalzy.

UCB Week 5 - Welcome to Pound Town

It didn't feel like the Local 505 brought their AA game this week but when the smoke cleared the score sheet told a different story. The UCB is shooting at a record pace in 2015 and have the first half title easily locked up. Jared shot his career high as a United Clay Busters as he's getting this trap game figured out. Mike and his SKB danced the tango tonight and came up just one bird shy of a perfect score. MK was TG.

Shooting in style. Looking sharp Alex.

Working Overtime

A Local 505 member was designing shotgun shell packaging in his basement this evening when it became evident he needed some inspiration. 50 rounds from the 23 yard line proved to do the trick. And for what it's worth, the United Clay Busters of America, unofficially, have a 54 bird lead in Class AA. Repeat, a 54 bird lead. #Boom

Week 4 - We Want More

The Local 505 made quick work of week four and didn't even get the opportunity to share in a post shooting adult beverage due to early morning business travel. Shawn was M.I.A. but withdrew a nice score from the bank. Another rock solid team score with just two weeks to claim the first half title. JK was TG.

Special thanks to Scot Stewart for scoring this week. Scot is a good friend of the 505 and we're bummed we don't shoot before the Sorry Shooters this season.
