The Interclub shoot was hosted September 8 at Agassiz. The weather was great with Sun and Cloud and around 22 C. Everyone enjoyed the extra challenge of Agassiz’s wobble trap. For anyone unfamiliar with Wobble trap. It is the same side to side motion along with an up and down motion. Some targets seem to go straight up and others hover just above the ground.
