3 throwers on every Station...interesting

[Snarlingiron]

Went out to one of my favorite clubs Sunday for some sporting clays. They have added a thrower to each station so now instead of 2 there are 3. The course of fire was something like 1-2 report, 1-2 report, 2-3 report, 1-3 report. Man this really changes the whole game. Sure was a lot of fun!

I can see how someone used to only 2 throwers at a station could be thrown off by the addition of a third. I think it increases the challenge of the game and makes it more fun as well. Glad you enjoyed it

Am I the only thinking of simo triplets?

What fun with an 870.....

Sounds like what some call "Super Sporting", and a lot of fun.

At my club we do a "triples" shoot once a year. It's a lot of fun, but only if you're shooting an auto. For those with O/U's, we show a separate "menu".

Over here Benelli host a semi-auto contest like that - either 3 clays per call or 2 with full use of the gun.

Here is the link if you'd like a look.

I shot it last year it was a lot of fun. Since then there have been quite a few imitators, which is a good thing

When I'm up north, I shoot triples with my grandfather. We use a pair of Winchester pumps.

Unfortunately, Elm Fork only allows 2 rounds in the gun at any given time, so triples are going to be a bit of a challenge. I'm pretty sure it has been done when nobody's lookin'. We already got called down a few weeks ago for shooting on the skeet range at odd positions between the shooting pads. We were told we had to be on the pads and could shoot from nowhere else. Been doing it for quite a while. Damn shame everything has to be managed to the lowest common denominator, but unfortunately it does.

>>Elm Fork only allows 2 rounds in the gun at any given time<<

Well, that would be the accepted practice at our club as well...except "triples night".

Called safety and liability insurance - take it out on an ambulance chaser, not the club....

We have a ducks unlimited shoot every year and this is a triple course. You load 3, sometimes three come out some times you get a second chance at one of the two. Fun game when you have spoiled birds.
