Over the weekend, on September 28th, 7 members from the Paulding FFA chapter attended the September trap shoot at The Paulding Fish and Game Club. This was the first trap shoot that we have done this year. The members went through the safety precautions with a fish and game member before the competition to ensure that everyone had a safe and fun day hitting clay pigeons.
The members competed in two rounds where they had five different positions to shoot from. The members were placed 16 yards away from the electric clay pigeon thrower. The first round was practice but the second round is what determined the winner of the day.
The winner was Matthew Bail and he received a plaque for his trapshooting skills. Mackenzie Leatherman placed a close 2nd in the competition. We had several new members participating in the trap shoot.
We have our second trap shoot scheduled for October 12th at 11:30am. We would like to thank the Fish and Game Club of Paulding for all their help and support of the Paulding FFA program.
