Idea for a GB shootoff this spring.

edited February 2004 in General Discussion
Been thinking about another shoot off and I was wondering what everyone else thinks about it. Since there seems to be a few groups of us from the north east, south east, midwest and the west coast that are able to have meetings and access to shooting ranges maybe we could have regional matches and then have the winners from the regionals targets judged against the other areas by an elected judge.

I think it would be nice to have some springtime get togethers involving some harmless compitition and see who wins, north, south, east or west.

Whatayall think?[:D]

And yes we can work something out with prizes, don't want good shooting to go unrewarded

    If we got enough people together for each "regional" we could roast a pig and have a big party afterwards. Sounds like fun to me. A friend of mine belongs to a club with full facilities including a campground. Unfortunately it's in NY so it wouldn't be legally friendly to non residents. I'd be interested.


    Lonny; did you see my truckin bozo post?

    I was thinking the same thing about the pig roast[:D] I had mentioned to Pabooger before about having a get together here at Raystown lake, they have all kinds of camping, picnic/bbq areas, house boat rentals and such and a real nice shooting range close by but that may be too far for some members to travel. It's something I would like to do, really like to do some shooting against a few of the members here. Really want to sit down and compare targets against GHD[:D][:D]

    Didn't see the post about Bozo, is he in the hospital again?

    I was just checkin out his website last night and discovered he had a discussion forum. I listen most weeknights driving home from work. Steve was talking about addisons disease thursday night and mentioned there was info on the website, so I was checking it out. I knew you were on OOIDA's forum, didn't know if you'de ever seen bozo's.

    sounds like a good idea.

    I will shoot against anybody, anywhere for bragging rights. After I loose I mostly just like to clean my gun and enjoy the time spent shooting! So you could count me in I guess, but I'm in the middle of the east coast move, and yes we would have to throw in some shotgunning.

    Shotgunning? Who said we was inviting snobs[:D][:D][:D][:D][:D] Just kidding!

    Something like clays, bench rifle, offhand .22, handgun and of course to keep some happy a beer drink off[:D]

    I think it would be fun 4 or 5 groups if not more all have a get together, shoot competitive against each other then have the top targets compared to the targets from the other groups. Doing it that way would keep us all honest[;)]

    For those here around PA that would be interested there is a pig roast close to here each summer that has sporting clays, bench rifle, off hand running deer target, archery 3D, .22 silloete(SP?) and a few other activites that are quite fun and competitive. If any of you is interested let me know and I can let you all know the details as the time gets closer. Infact there are two of these big shoots around the same time but the pig roast is the big one.
