  Welcome to "Novice to Masters". This is the Foundation, part 1 of our 3 part series.  This episode will focus primarily D&C classes, but you will be surprised what you can learn, or may have forgotten from the basics!  

   For this first episode, we have Karen Miles join us from start to finish! Why did we choose Karen for this part 1? Because her and her husband Gebben Miles have taken students from D to Master class very quickly. Some in as little as 3 months!  There is a TON of useful information in this episode and even if you are a veteran or at the top level, some of this information can be a great refresher to your game!

September 11, 2001 was a tragic day for our country. However, in every negative, there is a positive. Enter Team 911 & T2T (Tunnel to Towers).        We are joined by Frank Bruno and Andrew "Chic" Pisani of Team 911, along with Matt Milazzo from Tunnel To Towers.   The two entities have teamed up to not only bring awareness, but help the families of fallen first responders nationwide!  The work that they are doing is incredible and awe inspiring. It may surprise you how much they are doing and hopefully encourage you to help in some fashion.

 What does this have to do with Sporting clays? They are both not only attending shoots, but holding fundraising shoots for this incredible movement! It was both an honor and a privilege to have them on the show, and we hope that you will take their message to heart and help, any way that you can!                                         TEAM 911 - [email protected]  /   Tunnels to Towers - T2T.org
