A long weekend!

Friday

2023 Woodcock Invitational Skeet (NSSA), Club de Tir de Valleyfield  (St-Stanislas-de-Kostka, Québec)

Saturday

115th Vermont State Championship Trap Shoot, Montpelier Gun Club (Berlin, Vermont)

Sunday

2023 Roue du Roy Classic Sporting Clay Tournoi, Club la Roue du Roy (Hemmingford, Quebec)

Thunderstorm on my drive to Valleyfield.  Doing 20mph in a 55mph. No rain while I was at the club. The club is back from the dead as far as registered skeet goes.  A full house or close to it. Two, three years ago lucky to see a full squad. Doubles event ran smoothly.

Rain at the Montpelier shoot.  A few times I thought it was going to stop but it didn't. I'm told a few shooters sat out Saturday.  I made an ammunition buy at the shoot. A fender who advertises in the shoot program sells not only ammunition, but reloading supplies.

A lot of walking at the sporting clays shoot.  Went out twice without a cart as they had two start times. I was dragging at the end of the day. Going to have to rethink that going out twice. Someone did offer to rent me a cart in the afternoon, but I had already made the walk and I only had a few more stations to hit.

Various gun vendors at the shoot. You could try any gun displayed, on the skeet field.
