February Upddate

Another reminder, all dues MUST be paid for 2010 by the March meeting, Thursday March 4Th. This means if you mail it, it must arrive by the March meeting. There have been too many issues in the past with exceptions, NO EXCEPTIONS WILL BE MADE. Dues are the same as last year. Regular dues $40.00, Clubhouse key holding members $20.00 and Junior members $5.00. DO NOT mail dues to the club address. Mailed in dues must be sent directly to: Steve Martin, 3246 Oaknoll Rd. Gibsonia, Pa. 15044 .

• Please bring all sold or unsold Gun Bash tickets to the club ASAP. There are literally dozens of people looking to buy them who cannot find any left for sale.
• The Winter Trap League shoots at Bull Creek this Sunday with sign ups from 11AM to 3PM. They are calling for 4 to 8 inches of snow to fall from Thursday through Saturday so we will need help preparing the club grounds. Any help of 1 hour or more counts as a work party!

• The Board of Directors have approved the remodeling of the bathrooms (finally!). Details will be presented at the March meeting. Work should get underway by this Monday!

What Happens When You Fire a High Powered Rifle With a Plugged Barrel

Youth Pheasant Hunt From October 2009

Greg Levish sent these pictures in. About 25 kids age 12 to 16 participated in our annual hunt in early October. Many pheasants were taken and the kids gained valuable experience in identifying gender

before shooting as well as safety and hunting over dogs. Two Llewellen Setters, brought in by member Bill Davis, help flush the birds. Click on the pictures to enlarge.

Junior Member Bags First Buck!

The day was December 12, 2009. It was a very cold blustery day, only 18 degrees. Everyone was about to give up and call it a day, when suddenly a herd of deer came running down the hill. The adrenaline started pumping as Shauna Zbikowski ( junior member) shot her 1st deer... an 8 point buck at 50 yards away with a 20 gauge slug. She showed all the guys up that she was hunting with, being the only one to get a buck!!! WAY TO GO Shauna
