I would love to see sporting clays back at Ommelanden. How do you think we could do that?

that would be great but from what I hear its a long shot. From what I've been told DNREC had a problem with the lead being in the wooded area. Don't know if that is true just what Ive heard. I've started to go over to M&M in Jersey or Hopkins down in Maryland. Both are about a 25 minute ride for me but they are nice courses so its worth it.

I've never shot sporting clays nor have I shot trap or skeet. I wouldn't mind trying though.

So you don't think the "O" will ever start sporting clays back up. Going to NJ is just a pain in the butt.

M&M is a nice course so it dosent bother me too much but I wish the O would start it back up. I heard yesterday that they even cut skeet down to like 3 days a week. I haven't been down yet this spring to find out for my self.

That place could be a gold mine if it was not so missmanaged.
