What is vintage trap? I'm familiar with vintage skeet but not vintage trap. Perhaps regular trap shot gun down using a sxs?
I guess you need to wear nickers and a cap.....lol
Glass balls ??
A leaf spring thrower and charcoal briquets. It isn't as easy as it sounds.

Sounds like fun though !
With or without nickers glass balls would be uncomfortable! :-)
That rig approximates the Bogardas setup. Briquets instead of glass balls. That is one of the disciplens for the Adams cup at Westside in Houston. Multy event contest named for Cyril Adams; wobble trap, zz bird, Borgadas balls.

I hope it involves vintage single barrel trap guns.

But the rest of us get to shoot twice, Glenn!
Ok it's been asked before but not answered, what are you calling "Vintage Trap" and what is it...?
OK here is what we have come up with so far. Standard trap rules. Shoot one round from the 16yd line and the 2nd round you shoot from your score of the 1st round. Then add the 2 scores together for your score. So you score a 24 the 1st round then you shoot the 2nd round from the 24yd line and score a 23 your total score is 47. Guns must be SxS or single barrel and made before 1950.

This event will help fund the Scholastic Trap program. Not only fun but it's for the Children!!!!

Prize and schedule info still in the works.
New fields are looking good!
