Starting back up after 20 years!

[Rob02655]

So after a 20-year hiatus that included a career change, starting a family, and raising two now teenagers, I’ve returned to clays with my 17 year-old son who posted an impressive showing on his first day at MMSC with a lesson from Sanford Whitehouse (fantastic instructor). Two weeks later, MMSC membership hopefully approved tonight, and just picked up from Cole’s the 682 Gold that I lusted after some 20 years ago. Jim, Kelly and the entire staff at Cole’s Harpswell and Naples were outstanding and fit me into a fantastic gun at a great price! Looking forward to spending time with my son and rediscovering how much fun it is to break clays! Hope to see you around! I’ll be the 50 year old grinning like a kid!

Simply outstanding. Your son will remember this for the rest of his life.

And that's a sweet shotgun.

Well done.

Get ready to have your son post higher scores that you!

Already there and perfectly at peace with my deficit. I suspect the chase may prove useful in justifying my future acquisitions!

My kid started beating me at ~11 or 12.

He's the one with the "real" trap gun. I have an old beater.

That is excellent Sir, don't ever stop even when he starts kicking your butt regularly, have someone video you two shooting together you'll appreciate the memories later. Sons grow up and leave too soon. Paul.

Well, if you’re looking to get back into it, we’ve been heading to MMSC every Saturday! Drop me a line! Seriously.
