1st Perfect Round



Hello classmates, this week I’m going to talk about a perfect round (something I’ve hadn’t had yet). A perfect round is when you hit 25 out of 25 targets. There is a ritual when a new shooter gets his or hers first perfect round called “the hat shoot”. At our club they make an announcement that someone shot their first perfect round and everyone should line up on the skeet field. The person that just had their 1st perfect round surrenders their hat and fills it up with broken clay targets then flings it out across the field. All the shooters lined up will shoot at that hat all at once. It’s a really cool thing to experience and it’s kind of a “Rite of Passage”. I’m getting close to my first perfect round and will start carrying a sacrificial hat. Wish me luck!
