I've been enjoying this series as well. Trap / Skeet shooting is one sport I've never been involved with, so never had any knowledge these things existed. I'm curious now though, do you have any plans to compare the antiques with a currently manufactured design, such as Wing One (for example)?
Yup, we're working our way forward in time.
I really enjoy all the trap episodes. The Blanton especially.
It's the best trap.
It looks like Mae is having some trouble with the whole side-arm snap that all throwers seem to take. Even the new plastic ones.
Chance of injury, Check. Makes scary noise, Check. Throws clays well, Check. Can make you look bad and produce laughs, Check. What is not to like?
Kevin: Master storyteller. Love it!
The head mechanism looks similar to the Remington and Western traps.
I like how Mae got a negative score on her third throw
Can we get a Q&A with Kevin or something?
I would like more story time with Kevin
Of course it is good, it's Italian.
A “Clay Witch” t shirt would be great! A pointy witch hat and a hand trap in place of a broom
Crashed into a barrier in the middle of a swamp? https://i.postimg.cc/zD48XNdY/clay-witch.jpg
"Medium position clays" are called "middies" and are still often used here in Australia. The tiny ones we call "sparrows". Standard clays are 110mm, middies 90mm and sparrows 60mm.
Are the bigger ones schooners? Hic.
You guys make me smile through the whole video. Best entertainment I pay for, lol.
no u.
And the Italian for clay pigeon thrower is lanciapiattello (piattello is It. for clay pigeon: little plate, I guess). But you probably knew this already. And there doesn't seem to be much online.
Well, Gardone V T will be for the village of Gardone, in Val Trompia, a bit north of Brescia, which is where Beretta started (in about 1500). So that doesn't really tell us much more than that it's a Beretta. And the style of the lettering looks 1930s.
What a new hand trap episode, okay go get a touch of whisky and sit back and enjoy the show.
That Kevin story is worth half a burrito. But no more than that.
More Beretta! More Mae! More traps! And remember, safety third. I swear this series is more dangerous than primer. I keep expecting someone to get a clay stuck up their nose sooner or later.
I like Mae content!
That’s a Two-fer Tuesday!
