News from Ann...

Here I am at the Las Vegas Gun Club, where my husband Phil competed in a trapshoot on March 6-8, 2009. Although I didn't participate in this event, I did take a few shots using his shotgun. I began trapshooting in 1997, when actor Robert Stack, an Olympic champion shot, gave me a wonderful shooting lesson. I met Phil at a shoot in California. Although I "retired" from the sport a couple years ago due to an injury, I do own two Beretta shotguns, and I may ease back into it one of these days. By traveling to various shoots, we have made many friends around the country.
