Buffalo Audubon Club. 
Buffalo, Aug. 21.—Evidently our field captain, Mr. 
Suckow, thinks the Audubon boys can hit any kind of an 
old target—and perhaps he is right. The way he had 
the Leggetts throwing this afternoon would make you 
think of a streak of lightning—60 to 70yds. and a mile 
high describes the situation perfectly. 
Two of our out-of-town members were high, viz.. 
FOREST AND STREAM. 
Covert, of Lockport, and F. S. 
both with 89 to their credit. 
Covert won Class A badge,

Haddonfield Gun Club. 
Haddonfield, N. J., Aug. 18.—The third annual tour¬ 
nament of the Haddonfield Gun Club, Sept. 14, promises 
to be as successful as were the tournaments of 1907 and 
1908. We have every reason to expect not less than 
seventy entries. The powder and shell companies have 
given us strong support, which we appreciate. 
To make our shoot interesting to the amateur, we have 
decided to make it nine events of 20 targets each, and 
we will give substantial prizes to the five high guns 
shooting through all the events. Also to low amateur. 
We will have out an array of experts hard to excel. 
J. A. R. Elliott will represent his company, and as he 
is not a stranger to our grounds, can be depended on to 
run a good score. Lester German and Lloyd Lewis will 
attend. Mr. German is a host in himself, and holds the 
record for the highest score over our traps. Messrs. 
Butler and H. Overbaugh will be on hand to look after 
the interest of their company. Mr. Overbaugh was with 
us last year and made himself generally useful by assist¬ 
ing the office force and running a good score. Mr. H. 
S. Welles has just sent us word we can depend on 
him—another good one. Sim Glover, whom we know 
by reputation, is coming to make a record. H. L. 
Brown has signified his presence by a letter just re¬ 
ceived. The Philadelphia interests will be looked after 
by Col. G. F. Hamlin and J. F. Pratt. Neaf Apgar, the 
chief oracle of the Westy Hogans, will stop off en route 
to Atlantic City, whither'he is going to attend the annual 
pow-wow of his lusty sons, and enjoy the day with us. 
The amateur class will be a strong one. We extend 
cordial greeting to all devotees of the shotgun,'and will 
give them a pleasant day’s sport. Programmes can be 
had by addressing the secretary. 
Our shoot occurs the day before the Westy Hogans’ 
shoot at Atlantic City, and as many amateurs will be on 
[Auc. 28, 1909. 
their way to that shoot, I am endeavoring to have 
stop over a day with us and get in form. 
W. A. Shreve, Sec’y. 
Holland Gun Club, 
Batavia, Aug. IS.—We had a cloudy day but no rain, 
so are well satisfied with the weather. There were 
fifty-seven shooters, including the professionals. Eight 
squads shot through the programme, and about six 
squads shot through in the sweeps. 
Mr. A. E. Conley, of Cohocton, N. Y., won the Watts 
L. Richmond trophy with 49 out of 50. Mr. A. E. 
Keily, of Buffalo, was runner up with 47, and there 
were five 45s. 
Mr. E. J. Coates, of Perry, won first in the merchan¬ 
dise with 25 straight from 17yds. Hobbie, 18yds., and 
W alls, 19yds., were next with 24. Knickerbocker, 
Crandall, Hollenbeck, Keily, Orman and Covert were 
next with 23. Cox got the tenth prize with 22. Kelsey, 
Wright, Gardiner, Conley and Greene “also ran’’ with 
22 , but you must shoot hard, and then some to beat 
Eddie Cox in a tie. 
Mr. Ginn had charge of the office, ably assisted by 
Mr. Kelsey. “Jack” went down the line with the ad¬ 
dress book. Bro. “Hank” kept tabs and told Brownie 
where to throw the targets on the shoot-off. “Prexy” 
extended a cordial invitation to come down and shoot 
with the Westy Hogans. James tucked high average in 
his pocket and wondered how he missed those five, as 
he smoked his pipe of peace—come to think of’ it, 
though, he was smoking cigars. George cashed in at 
4:30, which is some early. 
The “gasolene” squad blew up—or rather four tires 
did—which accounts for their being squad No. 10. 
Here’s Hoping you win a leg on the cup next year.
