Rock Mountain Sporting Clays

Greeting to all of our shooters!!

We hope you are all doing well and enduring during all of this soggy weather we've been experiencing. As of today (3 July) we've had 27 straight days with rain. Not all during shooting hours, but enough to make the grass grow and keep the ground mushy.

On July 25th and 26th we will host our annual Mountain Madness NSCA shoot. Saturday will consist of a 75 bird FITASC event (pre-registration required), sub-gauges, pump, SxS and 12g prelim. A HOA FITASC trophy will go to that event winner, and a HOA combined sub-gauge trophy will go to the shooter with the highest combined score in the 3 sub-gauges. The prelim, sub-gauges, pump and SxS events will be 50 birds each.

Sunday's Main Event will be a 100 target shoot on 17 stations. Dr. Evil has some new tricks up his sleeves for your entertainment!! Attached you will find the shoot flier and the registration. They are also available on our website- www.rockmountainclays.com on page 4 (events and results). For more info, please call us at 570-965-7625 during our normal business hours.

Have a safe and happy 4th of July!! See y'all soon!!

Todd Murphy Memorial Shoot
Start: 00:00
End: 23:59

Todd Murphy was a Traveler and NSCA Competition shooter for many years and passed last year due to cancer.

From Al Anglace, president of the Connecticut Travelers:

Todd was a tenured Traveler with many friends within our ranks. He was one of the most congenial people you could have met within our shooting ranks. But that did not mask his competitiveness as he attained high marks for being an accomplished sporting shooter. I urge our Traveler body to support his Memorial Shoot as a fitting farewell to a great guy.

FALL TRIP RESERVATIONS DUE 9/17!

“It is the month of June,
The month of leaves and roses,
When pleasant sights salute the eyes,
And pleasant scents the noses.”
      Nathaniel Parker Willis

For many of us, the pleasant sights are the sights of orange clays breaking against a blue sky and the pleasant scent is the smell of spent gunpowder in a paper hull.  And the good news is that we can enjoy those scents and sights throughout the year.

There may be a lot of shooting between now and October, but since I sent out the first announcement, several people have told me that they want to be sure to reserve their spot on the trip.  Based upon early promises to attend, it looks like we again will have a fine turnout.  So mark your calendars and send in the attached reservation form.

Our Fall trip this year is “Lehigh Valley Clays, Steaks and Brews.” The Connecticut Travelers travel to Pennsylvania on  October 2, 3 and 4, 2009 for sporting clays, grilled steaks and handcrafted beers.

We start off Friday afternoon at Whitetail Preserve.  www.whitetailpreserve.com . This is a 19 station sporting clays course set up by the internationally known course designer, Michael Davey.  We shot it last fall and the venue and the staff were both excellent.  Saturday, we shoot morning and afternoon, with lunch in the clubhouse, at Lehigh Valley Sporting Clays. www.lvsclays.com.  Many of us have been there before and know what a great club it is.  Their wobble trap, 5-Stand, and 17-station sporting clays course are set around an abandoned quarry and large fields that offers an unparalleled atmosphere and a truly unique shooting experience.  Sunday morning we shoot at Wing Pointe. http://www.wingpt.com The course has 20 stations and meanders through a rustic wooded environment.

Friday evening we will have cocktails and dinner at Gregory’s Steakhouse, “the home of the 120 ounce steak.” http://gregoryssteakhouse.com/  We won’t have that on our special menu but you can order that evening from your choice of either 24 oz. Ribeye Steak, 20 oz. King Cut Prime Rib, Baby Back BBQ Ribs, 8 oz. Filet Mignon, or Stuffed Flounder.  Saturday night we dine (and maybe quaff a beverage or three) at the Allentown Brew Works.  http://www.thebrewworks.com . The handcrafted beers brewed right in the restaurant might include Steelworkers’ Oatmeal Stout, Valley Golden, Steelgaarden Wit and the award winning Fegley’s ESB; seasonal taps have been frequented with beers ranging from Pale Ales and Wheats to Pumpkin Ale and Belgian Lambics. 

If you want to make a longer trip of it, also in the area are such family friendly attractions as Crystal Cave: www.crystalcavepa.com, Dorney Park and Wild Water Kingdom: www.dorneypark.com and Lost River Caverns: www.lostcave.com.  Plenty of excellent shopping is also available for those wishing to help out the economy including, of course, just 29 miles away, Cabela's.  And for those who feel lucky, Sands Casino Resort Bethlehem just opened with 3,000 slot machines and electronic table games as well as 40 upscale stores and 4 night clubs. http://www.sandsbethworks.com/

We have thirty rooms reserved at the Four Points by Sheraton, 3400 Airport Rd. Allentown, PA (610.266.1000) at a special Ct. Traveler rate of $90.00 per night (double occupancy) which includes complimentary hot breakfast (omelet station, etc).  First  come, first serve.  Remember how quick the rooms went for the Spring trip. The “cut-off date” for accepting reservations into this room block is September 2, 2009.  You can either call the hotel and ask for the special Ct. Traveler rate or make your reservation on line at http://www.starwoodmeeting.com/StarGroupsWeb/res?id=0904306042&key=6AEBE

If you have any questions, contact me at robert@schrager.org  or (if you must) 203.531.6930.

Our Fall trip this year is “Lehigh Valley Clays, Steaks and Brews.” The Connecticut Travelers travel to Pennsylvania on  October 2, 3 and 4, 2009 for sporting clays, grilled steaks and handcrafted beers.

We start off Friday afternoon at Whitetail Preserve.  www.whitetailpreserve.com . This is a 19 station sporting clays course set up by the internationally known course designer, Michael Davey.  We shot it last fall and the venue and the staff were both excellent.  Saturday, we shoot morning and afternoon, with lunch in the clubhouse, at Lehigh Valley Sporting Clays. www.lvsclays.com.  Many of us have been there before and know what a great club it is.  Their wobble trap, 5-Stand, and 17-station sporting clays course are set around an abandoned quarry and large fields that offers an unparalleled atmosphere and a truly unique shooting experience.  Sunday morning we shoot at Wing Pointe. http://www.wingpt.com The course has 20 stations and meanders through a rustic wooded environment.

Friday evening we will have cocktails and dinner at Gregory’s Steakhouse, “the home of the 120 ounce steak.” http://gregoryssteakhouse.com/  We won’t have that on our special menu but you can order that evening from your choice of either 24 oz. Ribeye Steak, 20 oz. King Cut Prime Rib, Baby Back BBQ Ribs, 8 oz. Filet Mignon, or Stuffed Flounder.  Saturday night we dine (and maybe quaff a beverage or three) at the Allentown Brew Works.  http://www.thebrewworks.com . The handcrafted beers brewed right in the restaurant might include Steelworkers’ Oatmeal Stout, Valley Golden, Steelgaarden Wit and the award winning Fegley’s ESB; seasonal taps have been frequented with beers ranging from Pale Ales and Wheats to Pumpkin Ale and Belgian Lambics. 

If you want to make a longer trip of it, also in the area are such family friendly attractions as Crystal Cave: www.crystalcavepa.com, Dorney Park and Wild Water Kingdom: www.dorneypark.com and Lost River Caverns: www.lostcave.com.  Plenty of excellent shopping is also available for those wishing to help out the economy including, of course, just 29 miles away, Cabela's.  And for those who feel lucky, Sands Casino Resort Bethlehem just opened with 3,000 slot machines and electronic table games as well as 40 upscale stores and 4 night clubs. http://www.sandsbethworks.com/

We have thirty rooms reserved at the Four Points by Sheraton, 3400 Airport Rd. Allentown, PA (610.266.1000) at a special Ct. Traveler rate of $90.00 per night (double occupancy) which includes complimentary hot breakfast (omelet station, etc).  First  come, first serve.  Remember how quick the rooms went for the Spring trip. The “cut-off date” for accepting reservations into this room block is September 2, 2009.  You can either call the hotel and ask for the special Ct. Traveler rate or make your reservation on line at http://www.starwoodmeeting.com/StarGroupsWeb/res?id=0904306042&key=6AEBE

FALL TRIP RESERVATIONS DUE 9/17!

The month of leaves and roses,
When pleasant sights salute the eyes,
And pleasant scents the noses.”
