Turkey Shooters Raise Cash for Lions Club Charities


That single barrel shotgun kicked like a mule but it didn't bother Jose Gomez.

The Skidmore-Tynan Lions Club held its most successful Turkey Shoot in years, Sunday, November 13th at Hoot Owl Hollow. The competition began a little before 1:00 in the afternoon and continued until the club ran out of targets in the 16th round. The Lions thank all who came out to support the club and hope to see everyone again next year.

Sunday's winning shooters were:
Round 1: Jose Molina
Round 2: Oscar Fuentes
Round 3: Lloyd Glew
Round 4: Mark Salinas
Round 5: Jaime Zavala
Round 6: Ventura Tovar
Round 7: Josh Petrus (a perfect shot - right in the crosshairs)
Round 8: Gene Harada
Round 9: Lazaro Lara
Round 10: Jaime Zavala
Round 11: Carroll Johnson
Round 12: Dustin Chambers (another perfect crosshairs shot)
Round 13: Sam Moreman
Round 14: Hector Velasquez
Round 15: Sam Moreman (shootoff with Mike Chambers)
Round 16: Jimmy Moreman (shootoff with Mike Chambers)


First round winner Jose Molina takes aim.

Special thanks to Beeville Lions Carroll Johnson and John Richardson who came out to support a neighboring club. Thanks also to Carlos Lopez who not only shot a few rounds but donated an additional $20 to the S-T Lions.

Don't forget, VFW Post 9170 will hold their annual Turkey Shoot at Hoot Owl Hollow this coming Sunday.
