I’ve hunted all my life and shot sporting clays in the past primarly at charity tournaments around Fort Worth. In June 2011 my dad decided sporting clays was going to be his next hobby. Like most of his hobbies the whole family began shooting. The first tournament I shot in after joining the NSCA was the Red Hot Open at the Dallas Gun Club. I ended up winning the D Class on the Red Course, received 2 punches then shot the July Shoot the next day at Rough Creek and tied for the win which moved me up to C Class.
We now have a couple traps at the CF Ranch, my family place located just North of Alpine, TX. To go from D Class to Masters it took me 508 days and I averaged a punch for every 182 clays attempted.
