This was a solid course and an absolutely beautiful venue. Robert and Mack are seasoned clay shooters and provided a great deal of support to Annaliese as this was her first sporting clays event. Robert shot an 89, Mack an 84 and our newest addition Annaliese a 39. The kids did a great job of communicating and supporting each other.

Young Guns Achieve Impressive Milestones

Partridge Creek Young Guns achieved two milestones at the NSSA Snowbird Classic hosted by Partridge Creek Gun Club in Ridgeville, SC, November 1-3, 2019. Dylan Heinsohn (L) ran his first perfect 100 straight in 20 gauge. Robert Dudley (R) ran his first 50 in a row in 20 gauge. Dylan's hat faired much better than Robert's. Which is odd, since Dylan's was a White Flyer hat?!?
