\"\"<\/a>I’ve hunted all my life and shot sporting clays in the past primarly at charity tournaments around Fort Worth.\u00a0\u00a0In June 2011 my dad decided sporting clays\u00a0was going to be his next hobby.\u00a0 Like most of his hobbies the whole family began shooting.\u00a0\u00a0The first tournament\u00a0I shot in after joining the NSCA was the Red Hot Open at the Dallas Gun Club<\/a>.\u00a0 I ended up winning the D Class on the Red Course, received\u00a02 punches\u00a0then shot the July Shoot the next day at Rough Creek<\/a>\u00a0and tied for the win which moved me up to C Class.<\/p>\n

We now have a couple traps at\u00a0the CF Ranch<\/a>, my family place located\u00a0just\u00a0North of Alpine, TX.\u00a0To go from D Class to Masters it took me 508 days and I averaged a punch for every 182 clays attempted.<\/p>\n
