TRAPSHOOTERS ARE
HARDY SPORTSMEN

Trapshooting is the one outdoor
sport that knows no season and is
followed regardless Of weather con-
ditions. THAT breaking the clay
saucers Is unique as an ail-year-
round recreation is proved by the
pursuit of the game in the northern
states when the. thermometer fingers
at zero or below and that a majority
of the biz handicaps. are shot IN the
summer season When the mercury is
sizzling in thes 1ineties or above the
100 degree mark
principal reason for the seasOn-
less feature Of hl6c rock shooting Is
that the game is not played on the
ground as are golf, cricket. polo, soc
Ger. football etc, nor is it necessary
to have clear field for the base
runner as IN baseball Another rea-
son is that the original 'players" in
the trapshooting game We're hunters
who used the inanimate targets to
keep in form for field shooting or
found I'm the clay birds a substitute
for the vanished game of wood and
marsh. However, the sport is not
limited to enjoyment by those who
haver'roughed IT. but is now followed
as much by the Office or professional
man as the outdoor devotee, but even
so 1t numbers no mollycoddles OF
those who 'live softly" in its ranks,
for its pursuit. especially in the many
matches held, requires that the up
holding Of individual or club sup
premacy frequently means disregard
of heat or cold sunshine or storm
and during the winter season shoot
ers are sometimes called on to shoot
their score standing in snow, ice or
slush.
