Our hunting club has a family day every year the first Sunday after deer season starts .
We have a rule if your shotgun wins , it is out for the rest of the rounds .
Two of my friends asked me too shoot their guns for them . One is older ( my dads age ) and use to take me hunting when I was a kid . The other is one of the nicest people in this world and just came down with MS a few years ago .
I had a good day for my two friends . We only shot 5 rounds and a $50 dollar bonus round , for a total of 6 rounds . I shot 5 of the 6 rounds and won 3 rounds . I won the first round with my friends SX2 with rifles like sights . I won the third round with older friends 870 express , with a special choke , which I don't know what kind it was . To win that round I had to shoot against myself in a shoot off , because there was a tie . So I shot against myself , using my 870 , with a extra full BuckKicker choke and his 870 . I beat myself with his 870 .
Now both of my friends guns are out of the game .
We finish up with the $50 bonus round . So I shot my older friends target and my target with my 870 and my other friends target with his 1187 20ga. . I ended up having another tie with another member , shooting for my older friends target , not my target . So we have another shoot off , just between us two and I win the $50 dollars for my older friend using my gun .
I didn't win anything for myself , but I couldn't be happier for my friends and I had a fun day .
I think I had a lucky day .
I found out what kind of choke he had in his 870 . It was a Remington extended extra full turkey choke . It really put a lot of shot in that small target at 25 yards , using #8 shot .
