Adaptive Equipment Test #2

2/29/2020
February 29, 2020
Hosted by: River Deep Foundation and SCI HOP
Participants: School of Mines, Quality of Life Plus
Location: Valhalla Hunt Club, Bennett, CO

This is our second test of the adaptive shooting equipment from Colorado School of Mines. It will be mounted to a track chair to create real world experience. We all take a turn at some trap shooting. Overall it performs well. There are a few small adjustments that have to be made so the students will take it back to the lab and make the adjustments. Our next test is scheduled for the beginning of April. A big thanks to the Colorado School of Mines, QL+ and Valhalla Hunt Club.

Adaptive Equipment Test

2/1/2020

Adaptive Equipment Test
Saturday, February 1, 2020
Location: Valhalla Hunt Club & Kennels
Hosted By: River Deep Foundation & Denver SCI Humanitarian Outreach Program
Participants: Craig Hospital, Colorado School of Mines, Golden, CO, 
Quality of Life Plus ​

As part of the ongoing project with Colorado School of Mines, the students and Chris Ravotti from the Therapeutic Recreation Department of Craig Hospital, Scott Huyvaert with QL+, and myself, Bob Adwar, gathered at the Valhalla Hunt Club trap range to test the adaptive equipment for shotguns. The device is designed for paraplegic individuals to be able to participate in shotgun sports like trap, skeet, sporting clay and upland bird hunting. It holds the shotgun which takes the weight off the user, so it helps with the follow through of a moving target, a critical aspect of shotgun sports.
​

The enginereering students lead the test. The rest of us shoot using the device and offer feedback. We are all pleased with the results, so only minor adjustments will be made before we return for another test.
