Fox Collectors

News Flash from the vicinity of Cherry St., Meriden, CT

Mark your calendars now!! The 7th annual New England SxS Fun Shoot will be held on Sat., May 12th at Addieville East Farm, Maplevile, RI.
(Rain date is Sun. the 13th)

"FUN" shoot they say?? Do not be deceived comrades, by the notion that "fun" ever enters the equation here!!!! Those Matrons of Meriden, those Darlings of Duplicity are once again, leaving the hen house door ajar!!! We all know that the capstone of this event has and forever will be, the Parker vs Fox team challenge, for bragging rights and the highly coveted, $50 Ulysses S. Grant, commemorative trophy!!!! It's been 2 long years since Team Fox has made an earnest attempt at recovering the prize, so how 'bout it? Let's make 2012 the year we take that "PHIFTY" back to Philly, where it belongs!!!!!

Festivities will begin @ 9ish. We usually shoot 100 rounds of sporting (give or take) followed by lunch, show & tell and then, time permitting, finish the day, out on the 5-stand course. Not a bad way to spend a Sat. in New England!!!

Also remember, that Addieville will be hosting this year's Vintage Cup Shoot in late September, so what better way to preview/tune-up before tournament time!!!

Addieville has several grills for those who wish to prepare their own lunch. Golf carts are also available for rental.
Visit http://www.addieville.com for further info on this world-class shooting venue.

We need a minimum of 5 Fox shooters to mount a challenge. TOOLMAN makes one. Please email me at: cambo6789@gmail.com if you are planning to attend.

Hope you can make it.-------TOOL

I'm right in New Haven so it's not a bad ride and I've never been to a SxS event before.

Thanks,
Pat

Tool, Good boy! Lets get some interest going here. We have been doing this shoot for a good long while and the great times keep on coming.

Ithaca 33, I'll be coming right by ya on the way up. You will have a blast!

Dave...

At the moment I'm trying to assemble the necessities for reloading my own low pressure rounds. I'm hoping to track down a relatively cheap used machine in CT so I can get some practice in on the skeet range!

Off the glass.....TTT

So far, only 1 1/2 (fifty/fifty) Fox shooters, other than myself??? James Orr....Gregg Elliott....check your PM's. C'mon guys, surely we can round up a few more attendees for this one?? God help us if we can't put a hurtin' on those Pahkah boyzzz on the 12th. Based on this past weekend's proceedings, there will be no living with them once they reach Hidden Hollow in June. The horror............

TOOL MAN

count me in .i will come down from New Hampshire

Any idea what the cost of the event is?

Ithaca, If I remember right they give us the membership rate and a round of sporting costs about $40.00. In years past I have shot all day ie: sporting and five stand in the afternoon for about $60.00 or so. Don,t miss this event. Its a great day with some great people!
Dave...

OK....last call, guys. I had one cancellation today. Who's in for Saturday? Weather forecasted is damn near perfect.....sunny @70 degrees.

Last tally had Ithaca33, DRAGON and a 50/50 probability for JKLINE. If you can, please send me an email to confirm. Hopefully we can field a squad of at least 4, although 5 would be ideal.

Hopefully I'll get out to an event soon!
