THE TEACHING ACADENY AT GUARINO FARMS
In a few weeks the area's first dedicated Clays and Wing Shooting Teaching facility will soon be open. Guarino Farm's in Marlboro, NY has enlisted Tom Fiumarello to help design and head the new Clays teaching facility. The facility will be equipped with 6 new Mattarelli Trap Machines, a 30' Tower, a Promatic Flurry machine, and five teaching stations, allowing angles on all types of targets to be changed without moving any traps. Crossing, Teal, Chondelle, Rabbit, and Quartering Targets will be constantly set up, as well as a tower shot, to allow teaching and practice on any presentation a shooter may need help with. The "Huntsman" by Promatic, can duplicate those tough grouse, or quail shots you have been missing, and will prove to be invaluable to the wing shooter wanting to improve his or her game.
Guarino Farms also features a 10 station Sporting Clays course, as well as trout ponds, picnic area, dog training facility, pool and club house, for the St. Hubert's club private facility, which is on the grounds. Two bed and breakfasts as well as, meeting and dining rooms are available to rent. Alan and Kathy Guarino invite you to come and view this beautiful upscale facility, in the heart of Hudson Valley apple country.
To schedule a lesson, or to view and tour this beautiful facility call Kathy at 914-474-8996
or you may contact Tom directly. We anticipate the facility to be ready to teach, on or before April 15th, 2013. I will keep you posted

PHEASANT FEST
Well...............I am back from Pheasant Fest, (say that three times quickly), and it was PHANTASTIC.............to say the least. The Wing Shooting Seminars were filled to capacity, with a lot of laughs and plenty of info. So much so, after each seminar I spent almost an hour afterwards answering questions in the hallway. It was great. I also had the opportunity to address the SCTP kids and their parents. That was very rewarding the the talk was entitled, "Time for a little Respect and Responsibility". It was very well received, and I will try and get it up on my site................but don't be hopeful, I barely can write on this thing. Well, good weather is right around the corner, so all of you dust off that shotgun, and get to breaking some clays.................see ya soon.

SUGAR HAD HER PUPS
Our Brittany Sugar had a wonderful litter of pups in May, and they are just about ready to go. I have selected a male to keep, and start working for this hunting season, but I really don't see him getting much time out because of his age, but I will get him over birds in the coming months. All 8 pups have been spoken for, and we are looking forward to a great hunting season in the fall and winter
