A Jolly- Bay at Maplewood. 



DfiO. 35 was a great day on the grounds of the Maplewood Gun 

 Club, over a score of shooters being on hand and about 3,300 tar- 

 gets being thrown. These groimds ar^ pleasantly situated in a 

 nivine .iust south of the D. L. & W. Railroad tracks, a short dis- 

 tance beyond Maplewood station, and have a foreground equal to 

 any in the State. A commodiotis club house, well warmed and 

 lighted, enabled the shooters to keep comfortable. Flent^• of 

 solid and liquid refreshments were al«o at hand. The most inter- 

 esting event of the day was the annual team shoot for a supper. 

 The teams comprised 9 men each and each man shot at 15 Djue- 

 rock targets. The resull :

New York State Shoot. 



Editor Forest and Stream: 



On reading "Mtitton'.s" article in your issue of Dec, 24. we find 

 that he is the man that trap-shooters throughout the entire 

 LTnited States have been looking for, and if he can do what he 

 says he can, he certainly will have the everlasting thanks and 

 blessings of us average shooters. He has hit upon a plan "that 

 our coming meet may be liberally conceived and wisely planned 

 with due regard to the rights of the average shoote"r." Now, 

 that is what we have been trying to think out, but as yet we 

 haven't it Just as we should like, but thanks to "Mutton" he has 

 come to our rescue. Now will he kindly inform ns through the 

 columns of your valuable paper, so that not only we but the whole 

 woi Id may be informed of this much-sought-after plan. 



We would like to call "Mutton's" attention to the fact tha t the 

 New Y^ork State Association names the price to be charged for the 

 targets at the State shoots. Also that their rules govern all 

 matches, and that the Association, not the club, where the shoot 

 is held, says who may or shall not be eligible to participate in the 

 events. We certainly expect to be prepared to give the shooters 

 who may attend the shoot here not only a good rime but a fight- 

 ing chance to win in every shoot. SyKACUSE Sportsm.^s,
