2023 Trap Season

[Dewey Cox]

Just got the call, if the weather holds we're going to set up at least one machine on sunday.

We threw the first targets of the year yesterday.
Scores weren't great, but it was good to get at it.

We’re scheduled to open next week. Of course the current forecast for next Sunday is rain, if there’s pleoof time for that to change between now and then. Junior program starts a week from today

Club opened the weekend before last, couldn’t make it the Sunday but shot one weekday evening.

Really stared my season off this past weekend and did it in a big way. Drove south and took a weekend clinic with Nora Ross. If you have the chance to take one of her clinics, it’s worth every penny. I need to tweak my holds and foot position but the big thing that showed up on the slow motion of the video she took was that I was using some arm movement to get the gun to the target, which explains why I saw a weird sight picture when some birds broke. I’ve got a lot of practicing to do now!

Junior shotgun starts tonight in Winnipeg. Probably the latest we’ve ever started. Hope it’s a good turn out

Just shot day one of my club's tournament.
50 pair doubles, 100 singles.

Now I'm at home rethinking my life's choices.

I came home and planted 2 more rows of beets in the garden.
I'm sure as shit not going to feed my family with a career in trap.

My experience in trap is that winning your shell money back is a hopeless dream.

Wish I could shoot right now. I’ve pulled a muscle in my left shoulder and can’t lift a gun without burning pain in that shoulder. I’ve gone to a physiotherapist and been doing the exercises but no improvement. I’ll be lucky to shoot by fall

Sorry to hear that, hopefully you're wrong and heal faster then you think.

Is it just a regular physiotheripist or a sport physiotherapist? A good sport physio is all about getting you back into the game.

Just a regular physiotherapist, but she seems good. My wife has used her for years. Weird thing is I don’t know what caused it. I can’t remember doing something where I said oh crap that hurt. Just seemed to come on.
