We will be adding another "trophy" event to the shoot.

No gauge specific awards, a trophy for the HOA score. Shooting can be done Thursday through Saturday. 50 target event. Come on all you "shell shuckers", let's get it on!!

Clays carts will be available for $65/day and must be paid when you reserve them. Carts must be reserved by September 7 please.

See y'all soon!!!!!
