Aggies
Vs.
Longhorns
Sporting Clays Extravaganza I am thinking about a good natured, large scale, once a year, charity shoot with shooters representing Texas A&M and the University of Texas. I want to get the word out to current students, former students, families and loyal fans of the schools. I figure it could be hosted one year here in C.S at Tonkaway and then the next year at Capitol City. I have no idea if the universities will be legally able to sanction this due to our strange fixation with shotguns, but I will look into it. We will need a charity to donate to. We will need a mechanism to spread the word. I started a loose thread on the bulletin board of www.shooterspagetx.com I think Fall dates will interfere with football games, perhaps Spring. I would appreciate all you old Ags & Texas Ex's out there giving me some feedback on this. I met some great Aggies & Longhorns in Houston at the Texas Challenge Shoot II and I will see if they can help get the clay flying. I know that Capitol City tried a version back in the fall with former UT & A&M football players that now play in the NFL and it didn't work. I'm hoping this concept will. I think it would be cool to have a unique concept to the event that isn't overly complicated but perhaps different from the normal NSCA tournament structure. I am not an event planner or organizer so I'm hoping someone with more talent for these things can help get this concept going. I have contacted Mr. Dwyer at Capitol City. It'd be cool if we could get a A&M vs UT theme going complete with shirts and everything. I have asked White Flyer if they can make some maroon and burnt orange clays. Lets bring new meaning to the term " SHOOT IT " Ags. I will try to get the Assoc. of Former Students to run a story in the Texas Aggie.
