    Hello Gentlemen and Ladies, If you have never been to THE SOUTHERN SXS in person to see the excitement of THE HAMMERGUN CHALLENGE then I would encourage you to do so. In my opinion The LCS vs Parker Hammergun Challenge is just as important as the main LCS vs Parker Challenge. It is true that there are fewer participants in The Hammergun Challenge but not less enthusiasm. The LCSCA has every right to be very very proud of its club winning THE HAMMERGUN CHALLENGE. Many of the shooters attending The Southern SXS are members of both the PGCA and the LCSCA and some are surely members of the FOX Collectors too. This year the LCSCA was able to recruit new members at The Southern SXS that will be shooting for the LCSCA at The Southern in 2009. One of the new recruits was shooting a Winchester Model 21 at the five stand on Sunday afternoon and I watched him hit 29 out of 30 at the five stand. Just imagine how well he will shoot with one of Frank's Crown Grade L C Smith's after I tape a cheek piece on the butt stock with black vet rap for him. I predict that next year the scores will be a lot closer in both events between Parker and LCS. All of this is a great deal of fun and it raises money for our shooting sports future. It should be noted that several of the LCSCA best shooters were not able to attend The Southern SXS this year due to a scheduling conflict with a large sporting clays shoot in Virginia. Good Shooting To You All, Jent
