Game Day Spirit: How Sporting Clays and Football Season Have More in Common Than You Think

By | Clay Shooting, Skeet Shooting, Sporting Clays, Trap Shooting

Fall in North Georgia is more than just a change in the weather. It’s football season. 🏈

Stadiums light up, tailgates fill with energy, and fans across the state rally behind their teams. At first glance, football and sporting clays may not seem to have much in common. One happens under the Friday night lights or Saturday college crowds, and the other in the quiet rhythm of the outdoors. But look a little closer, and you’ll see the spirit of the game lives in both.

🎉 At Etowah Valley Sporting Clays (EVSC), the same qualities that make football so compelling, teamwork, focus, strategy, and celebration, come alive on our courses. That’s why fall is the perfect time to swap (or supplement) the tailgate with a day outdoors, where friends, families, and coworkers can make memories that rival game day victories. Read More
