My friends, this afternoon some of the local guys are heading over to Bull Run... Let me know if anyone would like to meet us over there... Oh watch the weather!

Does anyone know if we are being given a start time for the trap shooting or do we all have turn up at 8am and wait to be told what's happening

Are we going to be able to practice skeet on June 30 at the IWL venue?

Al Mullins Looks like practice will be on the 27th for both Trap and Skeet.... 8 years ago

Wow some amazing news just found out that the Great Sgt Mike Danko from Indiana (you know him he won the the high overall trophy at the 2011 NY games) AKA little ole country boy will not only be shooting in these games but will be available for photos and or autographs. He says he would like to do this the friday or saturday before the shooting starts. when the games start Mike will be in serious mode till it is over.

I have today noticed that federal has a limited addition red whit and blue size 8 12 gauge clay target round. Sales of this round go toward supporting wounded warriors

Cabelas has them advertised at$72 a slab / case (10 boxes of 25) With many of us traveling any thoughts on sourcing numerous cases through Cabellas and all contribute to this great cause....... As I imagine many of us were brothers in arms in our previous life

For those of you who would be interested in renting a golf cart for the sporting clays event, you will have to make arrangements on your own through Sherri Wilson.

Her contact information is:
Sherri Wilson

Disclaimer: Her business is not local, she lives in Harrisonburg, so if there is not enough interest to justify her travel she won't be able to provide golf carts for the event.

For those who are driving RV's to the Arlington-Fairfax IWLA for skeet and trap, don't. The roads are tight, and there is nowhere to park a big rig. If you didn't bring a car to drive around in, I suggest you either plan to pool with a friend, or rent a car. The parking lot at the Bull Run center is easier to get around in a big RV.
