Aww, you guys are so sweet letting me win like that to make me look good in front of my sweet little angel. Guess I'm going to have to bring her along for insurance. :biggrinjester:

Sorry El Chupo. We will surely do another one and we can avoid Saturday.

I guess we're just waiting to hear from Crossfire if she can do April 5. If she can't, do you guys want to keep it on April 5 or move it back up to March 22?

Ask her if she wants to use the iPad again. :lol:

I'm ready to go this Saturday, if I can just shake this bronchitis. :grumble

She has her own now. I have not put that spreadsheet that I mad eon there, but we have downloaded skeet and trap apps that work pretty well. I'm a little confused about the optional shot in the skeet one.

You are anxious! However, I cannot this weekend. I thought getting this up and running might take a little longer, but it doesn't seem that way now. I PMed Crossfire, so let's just wait to hear from her and we'll see what we can do.

I understand. I was just saying I'm ready anytime. I agree about waiting for Crossfire, if she can make it.

I'm good either day. Haven't shot much lately and feeling the urge to see some orange dust.

There are two versions of International, one like the score sheet you posted with both the high and low house and doubles taken at station 4, and another version of the singles plus the double taken from station 5. Unlike American skeet - International has doubles on all stations except 8. Our version of doubles in the US is just doubles from all stations, changing to low house bird on 5, go to station 7 and then start returning across the field, changing back to high house bird on station 3, ending on station 2 with one shell left. The shooters then start again on station 1, move around the field as before, returning all the way back to station 1 to shoot that 25th and 26th leftover shell - 50 shells total. Great fun and raises the frustration factor faster than five stand!! Good shooting ya'll!!

Sorry, I wasn't paying attention! C-Dub PM'd me.

I am good for March 1 or April 5.

We try not to schedule classes on the first Sat or the month, as a rule, so we can have one weekend to do stuff.

All right Lady and Gentlmen, sounds like we're all itching to bust some clays.

March 1, 0900, at Elm Form. Sound good?

"rlol" Well "someone" who shall remain nameless to protect the innocent,me, was remiss in telling me all this until the last minute. Fortunately she doesn't read or belong to the forum, so I think I'm safe. There is a silver lining, though. Both my daughters along with the grand children will be coming in that weekend. :hurry: So I get to see them all. :anamatedbanana :anamatedbanana
