I'm confused Eric, who is Seth?

 

[Ridgewalker]

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.

He’s my son. He’s done well this year considering he’s only 6 months after having a pretty serious shoulder surgery

 

[Witold Krzyżanowski]

Good luck and all the best.

 

[gizmo]

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.

 

[gizmo]

He did really well in make a break. Me not so much. He went 23/24 I put up a solid 15

Day 3

American Trap

Round 1: 22

Round 2:24

Round 3:22

Round 4:23

Total 91

Highest round he’s shot at state

 

[gizmo]

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.
