Once again, Club member Scott Hirko and his wife Laura, put together a really cool event for the Vipers.

We all met up at Super Car Sunday Car show in Woodland Hills.  There was a great showing of exotics

and muscle cars.  Even better was running into old friends that were there too.  We lined up the 22 cars and

made our way across the Valley up to Oak Tree Gun Club in Newhall.

The Vipers

We had a quick driver's meeting

And then hit the road

My girls were there waiting to move the cones for our reserved parking spots

Everyone got signed in

It was a beautiful warm day up in the canyon

There was a lot of Horsepower and Firepower in one place

My Dad and Ben

Steve and Ken wasted no time and were the first ones to hit the Trap Station

It got loud pretty fast as the guys started pulling the triggers on the 12 gauge shotguns

Craig and Dolly

Scott showing us how it is done

Mikey and Ben.....first time shooting trap

We had a Safety Officer assigned to our group.  He gave us lessons on gun safety and some tips

on the skill of shooting trap......I apparently had my earplugs in too tight and missed that part.

Proper shooting form

Lori's first time ever shooting

Scott worked his butt off all day long, helping everyone, setting off the trap and making sure

everyone was safe

Eddie

Brian, Shawn, Albert and Angel

Jim taking aim

Mike waiting for the pigeon to fly

Justin with a dead eye

Ben had the special safety tracking glasses which helped find the flying pigeon

Scott pointing out which pigeon to shoot....turns out in the end that Justin really didn't need any help.

Justin thought he hit the target....but really it was Lori who made the kill

Proof that I hit one...........

You can see the pieces flying in the shadow....clearly BEFORE it bounced off the ground.
