Club membersTrap

Trap is a shotgun game that has its own special set of rules and is great fun for men and women, young and old alike. As with the skeet fields, the trap facilities were renovated recently and provide the trap aficionados and beginners a wonderful panorama for knocking down flying targets. As with the skeet program at the Fin, the key for the trap houses can be obtained at the clubhouse. Prices are the same as skeet. Once again, it is mandatory that the user become familiar with the machines prior to shooting. For questions about trap, contact Bob "Moon" Hruskocy at this email address: bhruskocy@finfurfeatherclub.com.
