2 weeks ago, the trap thrower was broken, last week was a washout, and I still haven't heard the new gun go bang. It looks like this weekend will be nice. Warm and dry. One way or another, I'm going to get out and try to turn big pieces of orange clay into little pieces of orange clay, preferably at Sparta with a group of like-minded people.

Maybe Hercules in AM

Will have a better idea by the end of the week. What time you thinkin, 2:00?

Possibility here.

Yeah, 2 sounds good, or earlier. We can firm it up later in the week.

 

It'll be nice to see you, Dan. We missed each other the past few meetups.

I wanna go... *stomps feet and kicks dirt* 1 more month and I will have my freedom back!

Beg her for special dispensation.

Promise her you'll do something special for (to) her on the honeymoon.

Sneak away to see a "sick friend"

Whatever you need to say, try to make it. Gonna be fun.

I have the USPSA intro class with Col. M next weekend, which required moving some stuff around to make sure that day was clear. Unfortunately, that also means that we have stuff scheduled for this weekend... Not the least of which is taking my favorite little Jew (the wife to be) to church :shock: If I try to bail on that she may turn the shotgun on ME!

So, like I said... one more month and I'm a free man again! (I hope :shifty: )

You're forgiven, but only because your bride-to-be is a clan member. Shame though, that we're losing her to the dark side.

If it makes you feel any better, she's leaving kicking and screaming :violence-axechase:

Ah, well. Our loss is your gain. I guess that works out okay.

Since the range isn't open during the week, and the thrower was broken the last time I was there, I can run over on Sunday morning to see if they've repaired it. I'll post back here one way or another. We could always jump over to CR if Sparta is still down.

I'm out for Sunday, I will be in South Jersey in DW heaven!

Nancy - No good for Sunday

Any updates on the "possibles" list? Assuming that the place is up and running, of course.

Ken, I will let you know for sure tomorrow.

Ditto.

I'm out. The weather looks like it's going to be perfect too. Unavoidable commitment.

Sorry, Mark. Next time.

Will be there for 2pm. The only thing is will have to meet someone for a ride into the range. I still have the loaner from the dealer, and I'm sure they will be a little mad if I return the car with mud packed in the frame!

I'm going to take a run down there in the morning to make sure the thrower is working. The "road" should be dry and solid by now, but if you need a ride in, it's no problem.

The thrower is fixed, and the road is a bit rutted, but dry, firm and passable.

 

All looks well for later.

 

Yay!

 

It looks like It's just the 3 of us (Troy, Mike, me) for today. Since we already know where to go, we can just show up at the range around 2-ish or so. If anyone else wants to come, we can meet at Kuiken Bros. around 1:30 and make our way from there.

Couldn't be a nicer day for shooting. I just hope Matt had as good a time with his new toy. Oh... right. Not so much.

 

Anyway, Troy, Mike, Dan (with daughter in tow) and I blasted away at clays for a couple of hours, shot the bull with a couple of the old-timers at the range, and had a generally good time in the sun. The Stoeger shoots nicely, but I have to adjust the pin springs. I had a couple of light hits on the Gun Club shells, but the Federals worked just fine. I saw some info on the Intrawebs on how to do that. I just need to find it again. It didn't seem too difficult.

 

The guys at Sparta couldn't be nicer, offering help and shooting tips. I like that place.
