THE LANSING TOURNAMENTS. 



The Manufacturers' Association's Tournament. 



The May townament of the Manufacturei's' Trap-Shooting Associa- 

 tion was held on the Fail- grounds in the beautiful city of Lansing, 

 Mich., on May 16 and 17. It was most successfully conducted by its 

 popular manager, Mr, Johu Parlcer, of Detroit, Mich. Under his en- 

 ergetic attention the spirit of the competition did not flag for a mo- 

 ment from start to finish. He was ably assisted by Messrs. Keller, 

 Lindsley, Courtney, Grubbs and Bush, all of whom seem to have an 

 incurable target-brealdng habit. Mr. Bush was most courteous, 

 obliging and popular. 



Montgomery Ward & Co. had an exhibit of guns under the charge of 

 theu- genial and wideawake representative, Mr. Chas. W. Grubbs. The 

 Hunter Arms Co. and Parker Bros, respectively also had an exliibit of 

 guns. 



The Paul North electric pull was used. 



The weather, while not bad, was not favorable for good scores, A 

 steady wind blew from behind the traps on Tuesday, and on Wednes- 

 day it blew both steady and strong. It added much to the speed of 

 the targets, besides maldng their flight erratic. A backgi'ound of 

 woods in the distance was unfavorable for good sighting, particularly 

 in a dull light. 



At a meeting of the directors Messrs. McMiu-chy, Courtney, Keller 

 and Luidsley being present, it was decided that a tournament would 

 be held in Missouri in July, the date of which would be fixed and an- 

 nounced later on, one in Virginia in August and one in Pennsylvania 

 in September, In June the Association will have its representatives 

 in Chicago, 



American Association rules as revised by C. W. Dimick, governed. 



Tbere were four 10-bird events each day, which were the only ones 

 in which a handicaj) was made. It was the Parker system, as fol- 

 lows: In the first of these events each day every one shot at known 

 traps, known angles, rapid- lu'e system. The handicap enforced there- 

 after is explained as foUovvs: "Those who win or tie for first money 

 shoot first in next 10-bird eveutj at unknown traps and unknown 

 angles, from traps 1 , 2 or 3, or 3, 4 or 5, accordiug to where he is 

 standing as he walks down the score, he having 3 imknown traps to 

 shoot from always, indicator to be turned at each shot. Those who 

 win on tie for second money shoot second in the following event at 

 known traps, unknown angles. Those below second place are not 

 handicapped. Thus a shooter is classified from one event to another 

 according to the score he is making." 



The two 15-bird events each day were shot as follows: "One man 

 up at a time, standing.in the center, 5 imtnown traps and angles, in- 

 dicator turned at each shot. Those who break 15 straight receive'$10 

 each, the 14s S8 each, the 13s $6 eacb, the ISs $5 each, the lis *4 each, 

 the 10s $3. the 9s 152 each. " 



The 20-bu'd events were as follows: "Oue man up at a time, stand- 

 ing in the center, 5 unknown traps and angles, 21yds. rise for 13-bores 

 and 2Syds. rise tor lO-bores; both barrels can be used, second barrel to 

 score same as first. Those who break 20 straight $15, the 19s 813, the 

 18s 811, the 17s ,«.9, the 16s §7, the $15s 36, the 14s $5, the 13s 84 and 

 the I3s .S3. 



The surplus shoot each day was .is foUoiA's: At 15 targets, known 

 traps and augles, rapid fire, opijn only to tiiose who have participated 

 ia the two 15 and aO-bird races. Any surijlus acei'uing from entrance 

 money or what has not been paid out of the $100 which the associa- 

 tion puts up each day will be shot for in this shoot; 70 per cent, of 

 the total is divided amoug the three highest places, 50, 30 and 20 per 

 cent., and the remaining oO per cent, is divided among the thi-ee next 

 highest places, 50, 30 and 30 per cent. 



All prizes not specified were divided 40, 80, 30 and 10 per cent, 

 Tuesday. 



Heavy clouds which overcast the sky nearly all day made a dull 

 Ught, and this unfavorable cu-cumstance, with the steady wind which 

 blew from the rear, made their effects felt in the scores. Mi\ Courtney 

 was shooting a new gun in the forenoon, which he could not get on 

 friendly terms with, He returned to town, got another gun with 

 which he was better acquainted, and that afternoon he had a stride in 

 his shooting gait which would have done for an example. 



The targets tlu-oughout the totu-uament were bluerocks. Targets 

 were included in entrance.

Wednesday. 



The weather was clearer and the light, therefore, was better, but a 

 strong wind blowing all day steadily from the rear added to the diffi- 

 culties of the shooting. 



The chief event of the day was the individual State championship 

 race for the Manufacturers' Trap-Shooting Association's individual 

 trophy, which was won by Mr. Casper Schelling, of Lansing, The 

 medal itself was of a pretty design, emlilematic of the occasion, and 

 artistic in construction. Hearty congratulations were bestowed upon 

 the victor, Mr. A. G. Courtney, the representative of theLefever 

 Arms Co., made a most happy presentation speech and three rousing 

 cheers for tlie victor closed the affair of the trophy. 



Messrs. Courtney and Lindsley left for their homes in the evening, 

 and Mr. Keller left for Knoxville. Tenn.

Michigan State Trap-Shooters' League. 



The first annual tournament of the Michigan State Trap-Shooters' 

 League began at Lansing, on Thursday, May 17, following immediatelj' 

 the Manufacturers' tournament. American Shooting Association 

 Rules, as revised by C. W. Dimick governed all contests. AH events 

 were shot under the Parker system, save a few otherwise ai-ranged. 

 Four moneys in 10-bird events, in larger events, five moneys. Any 

 shooter tieiiig on a purse could draw his share. 



The Parker system has been referred to in the Manufacturers' 

 tournament, but as it was the governing system in this tournament, 

 excepting two or three events, it wfll be more fully explained, as fol- 

 lows: "In first event, all shoot at known traps and known angles, 

 rapid fire system. In the second and all subsequent events, all con- 

 testants winning or tieing for first money in any event, shoot as ex- 

 perts in the succeeding one, from thi-ee unknown traps and unknown 

 angles. All winning or tieing for second money in such event, in the 

 next event shoot as semi-experts, known traps and unknown angles. 

 All others shoot as amateurs, known traps and known angles. Each 

 contestant is classified by this handicap, by the event in which he 

 last shot." 



This seems a fair arrangement theoretically, but in practice it is a 

 failure in maintaining equality as it intends, since some of the most 

 expei-t shots were often classified as amateurs under it, as wUl be ob- 

 served by reference to the scores. 



The first three events were shot under the Michigan system, one 

 whicli many of the shooters found difficult to understand. Briefly 

 stated, a siiagle shoot was like this. Entrance SI. 30: Each contestant 

 had a rebate of ten cents for all he broke. The surplus monej' left 

 after paying for birds broken was divided in four equal parts, first, 

 second, third and fom-th prizes. Thus a shooter theoretically would 

 gain nothing by dropping for place, and every time a bh-d was missed 

 ten cents was lost. The first three events, however, were rim to- 

 gether, the surplus in the first event going to pay entrance of those 

 who had money in it to their credit, in the second event, and the sm-- 

 plus in the second went in like mariner to pay entrance in the third 

 event The trial was most unsatisfactory. A tangle of figm-es re- 

 sulted which was not straightened out for a day or two. Some ot the 

 boys explain it in this wise: You pay your entrance in all three 

 events, but you only shoot one event at a time. There are fom- 

 moneys. Those who put in a dollar extra on the side divide that 

 money, 50, 80 and 20 per cent, outside the regular stake, in which the 

 four moneys are divided equally. For each bird broken ten cents is 

 credited. The surplus goes to pay the entrance in the second event, 

 of those who have credit m it. Then there is a kind of pro rata 

 arrangement. Some pull out and thus lose their interest in the .sub- 

 sequent proceedings, and others ask where they are at. Then after 

 the second event everybody has lost track of the system. The surplus 

 is carried on further into the lliird event. Each shooter goes it blind 

 without the sUghtest idea of what it is all about. Then aU talk at 

 once, either trying to explain it or asking to have it explamed. The 

 cashier figures, figures and figures. Then they give up the system. 

 Thursday. 



The weather was pleasant and the attendance large and the compe 

 tition spirited.
