I have shot a few of these and the guys do a great job running it. You need you own bench, stool,rest and bags. It is very safe and lots of fun.

I will add I don't have my own bench and stool but there has always been someone willing to share. The range is in a pasture but where they set up to shoot is under some big hardwood trees so there is lots of shade and there is a nice berm they have the targets set in front of.

Good group of guys. If it rains you won't be able to get into the place without 4wd and tearing up the place so they reschedule.

Mark and I have it on our calendar an hope to see you guys next month. Thanks for having these. Oh and yes, the 12 year old spanked my donkey and I was happy to take it. Nice to see the girl shoot so well and her dad be so supportive and proud of her.

There is usually a place to shoot prone. I would love to see someone shoot it with open sights my eyes sure can't. You would be the first.

I had a few picts guess I deleted them. We have talked about a web site but nobody wants to do it. I think this will be the 12th shoot we try to do 4 every year usually have to cancel one here and there. Graham gun club has several shooters as well as S&S precesion from Denton.

Thanks for hosting it.
I enjoyed it.
First time I have been to a shoot like this but I'll be back.

That wind was something else.
