The club skeet shoots may well be the best kept secret at FTWS. Every month, weather depending, we hold the club skeet shoot. When I say weather depending I say it very loosely; the hard core crew that showed up in February last year shot while standing in 6 inches of snow and the summer crowd faced 100 degree heat!
Scores are kept individually in each gauge and in 3 classes from AA/A, B/C, and D. There is a wide variety of shooter proficiency represented every month; shooters are scored with other shooters in their class. Now for the money part…yes there is a entry fee. Brace yourself and put the check book back in your pocket, the entry fee is $3.00 per event plus regular target fees.
Buckles are awarded in each gauge and each class. With a $3.00 entry fee don’t expect to retire though! The real value in the club skeet shoots is participating in the camaraderie and fellowship exhibited while shooting with others who enjoy your sport. Points are awarded each month and prizes are awarded based on cumulative points at the end of the calendar year; the more you shoot the more points you have an opportunity to earn!
See you soon, Mark.
