Hi everyone. I want to highlight some shooting accomplishments of Illinois shooters. Carson Sievers has the second highest all-around average in the Sub-Junior category. Ian Lawrence is second in the Junior Gold category. William Blender is one of the age group co-rookies of the year Great shooting guys.
This has been a terrible winter for Illinois trapshooting. Another great one has passed. Jim Matteson died a few weeks ago from complications from cancer. Jim cast a huge shadow over our sport for years in Illinois. He was a Director of the ISTA for over 20 years, a delegate to the ATA for about 10 years, a great shot and an even better man. Jim was the best of us. When Jim decided to give up being a Delegate, he came to me to ask me to run for the job. At the time I was not ready to do it, but it meant the world to me that he would ask me to do it. Later, when I was ready to do the job, I told myself I would do it just like Jim. I like to flatter myself that this
