Just had to share something with everyone. Yesterday we were at the Kenosha County Gun Club in Bristol, Wisconsin. I brought my 16 year old son with me and a couple of my buddies. We shot 3 rounds of trap before moving to the rifle/pistol range. It's the second time my son ever tried to shoot clays, the first being an informal get together with some people at IllinoisCarry.com. Well, the first round actually went a lot better than I thought it would. He hit around 12-13 clays, not bad for your second time ever. The second round he surprised me by hitting 16-17. The third time he got on a roll and hit 21 out of 25! The look on his face was priceless. I managed to do only one better than him in that round which is very good for me seeing that this is the second time I've ever taken part in an actual organized trap shoot. He beat the pants off of both my other buddies. All this with a Stevens 12 guage side by side made in 1954. You could see the look of accomplishment and pride on his face not only knowing he beat his old man and his buddies but realizing he may have found something else he's good at. I know many of you guys/gals are much better at this game than both of us and I need to keep things in perspective, but I just thought that for a couple of amateurs we had a pretty good day. It was one of those days I'll never forget when my son and I bonded and became even closer
