Shotgun Bowling
I just saw a clip on TV about shotgun bowling. It looks like a lot of fun. It is just like bowling, except you shoot at the pins from 50 yards away. I might just have to start a league like that in my area.

"Bowling pin" matches go way back.
In fact it is a distinct discipline with pistol modifications designed expressly for the . . venue.
I believe it was Richard Davis of Second Chance, Inc. that originally popularized the sport.

FWIW.

The toughest shooting sport, skeet with a pistol grip shotgun, it is a blast.

Definitely the most technically difficult shooting sport I have participated in (where no one shot back), Tim.
Anyone tells you that they "do very well" at it you need to run far far away from them (#1- they are lying #2- if they aren't lying, they are dangerous).
I shoot a mid to upper National "B" class with IPSC, and I'll hit on two out of five shots . . if I'm having an "on" day (and you ~never~ get that many oppurtunitys at a single pidgeon).
Bowling pins are a lot slower moving
but still amazingly difficult to knock cleanly off a sheet of plywood.
. . Metric Tons of fun to try, though !!
IMHO.
