COLORADO STATE SHOOT
This year’s Colorado State Trap Shoot was held at the Delta Trap Club just outside the city of Delta, Colorado.

Delta has hosted the Colorado State Trapshoot 14 times over its more than 50 years in existence. There are 12 fields on the facility, all with Pat Trap machines and Canterbury voice releases. The air conditioned clubhouse and shady front patio were a welcome relief from the warm temperatures during the shoot.
