Hi everyone. I want to begin with a wonderful day that happened on September 8 at the Menard County Sportsman Club. I was contacted by my good friend, Jim Lyons, and asked to come and be a part of him reaching his 100,000 Singles milestone. How could I say no? I drove up there and found out that his grandson would be shooting his first 100 Singles targets on the same squad. Talk about the circle of life! I am happy to report that Jim shot at and broke his 100,000 target, which was followed by an ovation from everybody who was at the club. To be honest, Jim was happier that his grandson shot with him than reaching the milestone. Days like this make trapshooting so special.
  On September 14 and 15 the Northern Zone trap shoot was held at Downers Grove Gun Club in Morris, Illinois. The weather, people and scores were great. The winners are as follows, the Singles were won by Rodney Johnson In-Zone and by Kevin Wunder Out-of-Zone. Doubles were won by Chase Horton In-Zone and
