Hello - Trapshooters. A little help please!
I iused to be a very avid trapshooter way back when. Then along came my daughter and my life became consumed with her. She has now gone off to college and I would like to get back into the sport. I still belong to Clairton Sportsmen Club, but I understand trap is dying there and skeet is taking over. Does anyone know of local southwest PA clubs that have open trap practice in the evenings? I hope it's still alive and well at some clubs. Thanks in advance!

Ambridge has the oposite, skeet seems to have died out, and trap took over, go figure..
Skeet is a sport where you are better to hit half of each bird then completely blast one and miss the other completely.
The choice is yours, place your faith in the court system and 12 of your peers, or carried away by 6 friends.

My father-in-law belonged to Clairton and he now belongs to Monongahela. They shoot trap on Thursday nights at 6PM. They are a really laid back bunch of guys and a lot of fun to shoot with, especially if you are just getting back into it.
I have shot there many times.
Don't know where you live, but Pitcairn Monroeville Sportsman's club, where I belong, has some of the nicest facilities I have seen. Saturdays at 10AM for trap practice. I'll be there. Please note that trap is closed 3/31 because we are hosting the Boy Scouts Camporee for the weekend.

Aliquippa Bucktails is open to the public on Wed and Fri evenings. Get a Sunday Post Gazette and check out the listings for local shots in the sports section...last time I looked, I was surprised at how many places there were.
There are three kinds of people in this world....them what's good at math and them what ain't.
