Had a good time, and its way closer then the steel shoots for me. Guess I need to get a holster for next time.
Thanks to all the people that put this on.

All in all, I thought it was a very nice time ... beautiful weather! ... thems of ya that pussed out, Image

In case it weren't clear, we had two courses set-up last nite ... we normally have four. :mrgreen:

Also, as Tim mentioned, if ya missed last nite, and ya still wanna shoot with us ... yer still welcome ... please come a little early so someone can run ya through the abbreviated version.

Guys,
Are we going to make it tonight considering the weather. Also where is our party located ? I've been trap shooting at Oakdale but never pistol.
Thanks,
Zonk.

We sign up by the Comp range. There are two main buildings to the East of the Trap range., The classroom and the range house. Parking is between the two or down below the range house to the South. The Comp is down below the Classroom to the North.

so far, looks like Rain from 2p - 2:30p and then a 30-40% chance until end of shooting hours. I brought my rain coat and will be there by 3:30pm.

It's not the size of the map, it's the INFORMATION it conveys!
