Library Sportsmen’s Association in Finleyville, Pennsylvania, held its Generations Invitational on May 18-19. Library’s two beautiful new skeet fields are being broken in with numerous registered shoots this year, including closed club shoots and several open shoots. Numerous Library shooters have attended registered shoots at Generations Skeet Club in Patton, PA, while construction of Library’s new fields was underway. LSA chose to return the favor by inviting Generations’ members to a shoot named in their honor. Nine Generations shooters participated in this shoot.

This was a two-gun, two-day shoot involving the 20-gauge (25 shooters) and 28-gauge (23 shooters). The weather was beautiful on both days, mostly sunny and warm with light winds. Chris Kline was HOA Champion with a nice 196; Brian Steinert’s 195 was good for runner-up, and Joe Vescovi took third with a 192.
The 20-gauge was shot first. Kline’s 98 made him Champion. Class firsts went to Joe Vescovi (AA), Tom Oliver (A), Tim Holtz (B), John Avolio (C) and Michael Kasimirsky (D).
The 28-gauge was next; Brian Steinert ran them and was Champion. Class firsts (AA, A, B, C and D, respectively) went to Kline (98), Roy Holtz (96), Scott Hazlett (94), Rich Rothrock (95) and Shawn King (85).
Shoot management was ably handled by John Avolio. Jacki Avolio and Clayton Benson did a great job refereeing. Jacki also prepared the food, including pulled pork, potato salad, a yummy chocolate cake and cookies. Marie Palmer made beautiful champion, runner-up and third shooting towel awards (paid for by LSA).
