Good luck!

Bet it's hotter than the proverbial hinges. I did the state skeet shoot in S.A. in a prior century (also in July).
 
Good luck!

Jimminy Crickets. This is the hardest 5 stand setup I’ve ever seen. :confused:
 
Whiz Bang
23/50 :cautious::confused:
Took 2ndin his flight though.
 
Seth is Erick’s son. Going to be a great shotgunner if his shoulder surgery hasn’t changed anything. Takes a while to get things working again in my experience.
 
Day 2:

First up International skeet. (The great equalizer)

Round 1:11

Round 2:13

Total:24

That’s a respectable score for the most difficult discipline he’ll shoot this week.
 
I'm confused Eric, who is Seth?
He’s my son. He’s done well this year considering he’s only 6 months after having a pretty serious shoulder surgery
 
Shoots a 74 on sportingclays. Tough course but he did well.
2 more events and he’s done. He’s shooting stronger as he goes. American trap is tomorrow which is his strongest discipline.
 
He did really well in make a break. Me not so much. He went 23/24 I put up a solid 15:eek:
 
Erik, it was great seeing you and your family last night. Good luck on todays trap shoot.

Even though he didn’t shoot as well as he could have and would have liked it puts him as the top shooter in state out of our county. He’s currently in the lead for top shooter in the district (D1). So not too bad really.
 
Good stuff Erik, congrats to the young man!
