SHOOTING – Clubs from around the region are registering for The Spokesman-Review Trapshoot, celebrating the 95th year of the annual winter event.

Participants shoot their 25 target rounds each Sunday for eight weeks at their own clubs in Washington, Idaho and Montana and email their results, which are compiled into standings on the newspaper’s Sports webpage.

The competition starts Jan. 6. (NOTE:  I reported the wrong date earlier in this post.)
