THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT I've seen the Do-All White Wing and Champion EasyBird for around $300, anyone have any experience with either of these? Thanks! |

I have a Do-all, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. Nice idea, nice price, but its a piece of crap. I bought one 4 years ago, and to Do-all's credit they've replaced it 3 times under warranty, but I've given up on it. It eats batteries, and the motor takes a crap often. I have 3 of the Do-all Professional 3/4 cock seated throwers, and love them, but they should have built the automatic a little better, then they might have had something.
I can however, strongly recommend an Atlas AT-50 - this thing rocks! Great battery life, throws a consistent bird, never breaks down. When you put the 2 side by side, you can see the difference. I'm probably going for the turret model next - the AT-250. |

Thanks RobRat. Just didn't a little more research and you're thoughts on the Do-All seem to be consistent with what I'm reading. It's probably not a good thing when everybody is commenting on how good the customer service is at replacing the things!
What's the price on the AT-50 run? Anyone ever use one of the Champion EasyBirds? |

I've had a Champion Easy Bird for a couple of years now........
I'm really happy with it for the price. |

I forgot to ad that it does usually break a couple of clay pigeons when you first load it, so it works best if you don't let it run completely out before refilling the stack.

Trius One Step....or spend $1200 and have very limited presentations and a bunch of toxic litter on your property.
Smart money joins a club with a 5 stand, trap / skeet, and sporting clays range. Go often, shoot regularly, get involved, volunteer. |

I bought the Trius One from Cabelas and was surprised at the quality for $100. Definitely not a piece of sh*t and gets the job done better than my friend's $500 trap shooter.
This is the model I bought. http://www.cabelas.com/product/Shooting/Shooting-Accessories/Clay-Shooting|/pc/104792580/c/104769180/sc/104269680/Trius-One-Step-Trap/706695.uts?destination=%2Fcatalog%2Fbrowse%2Fshooting-shooting-accessories-clay-shooting%2F_%2FN-1100229%2FNs-CATEGORY_SEQ_104269680%3FWTz_l%3DSBC%253BMMcat104792580%253Bcat104769180&WTz_l=SBC%3BMMcat104792580%3Bcat104769180%3Bcat104269680 |
