MAY 2008 TRAP REPORT

 This month we were really busy; total birds shot were over 32,000!! This
 was an increase of 203%above last year! The youth shooters by themselves
 shot 659 rounds of Trap.

 All this youth practice certainly paid off at the 2008 Northern Regionals
 for Arkansas Game and Fish Youth Shooting Program; over half of the teams
 that finished in the top 16 for Seniors and Juniors had taken the
 opportunity to shoot at Twin Lakes Gun Club. Mountain Home Bombers Juniors
 finished 1st and 2nd at the Northern Regionals and the Seniors Bomb Squad
 finished first in their category. Now they're on to the finals at Lonoke
 on June 7. Other local squads that shot here and are in the finals
 included Izard County, 4th Junior team Izard County #2 second place in
 Senior class, And Flippen, 4th place in Seniors. Good luck to all the
 shooters; it was a pleasure having you at the club!

 Several members of the club participated in the Missouri State
 Championships this month; Tom Linville won Senior Vet, I won a preliminary
 Class A event, and Mel Ward cleaned up on the Lewis!

 Our May ATA shoot was fairly successful; we had 25 shooters for our
 all-Handicap 300 Bird Marathon and a good time was had by all. Our next
 ATA shoot is June 29; look forward to seeing all out there to shoot/help.
 This month we return to our normal events of singles, handicap and
 Doubles.

 As it’s warmed up our shooters have come out smoking!! Check the multiple
 perfect scores! Larry Krause had 6 25’s this month AND a 50 straight, Sam
 Hare and Chick had 4 each with a 50 for Chick as well, two youth shooters
