Folks this event has 0 pre-regs. This is diheartening seeing as the neigboring range has no 0problem filling the line. This events is famous for selling out events in all the other disciplines. The last AS event sched. here was cancelled while the week before and the week after different diciplines both sold out so I am in a quandry as to how to get this event to be more successfull????? :-[ :-[ :P :'( #) :sos: :sb: :DH: :slap: :shootself: !@#) %)
I am standing by to see what happens if nothing by OCT.26, on the 29 I will cancell this event! :slap:
There is apossibility that the remoteness of the range, combined with the facg that the typical appleseed shooter is not the high-speed, big money shooter with money to burn on things like lodging may be a couple of things working against the venue. Maybe the possibility of making the venue a known distance appleseed venue only? Appleseed to the next level. An event for rifleman qualified shooters to try ther hand at real distances.
I don't bite into the remoteness due to MGAR 12 mi. away without same problem. But there is certanly something and I agree with only doing select special events there in 2013! ..:..
Money is tight but I was actually hoping to attend this one so keep me posted. Looks like a great venue.

Well,DW almost saved the event,if he wouldda sighned up! :slap:
0-pre-regs a week out! :shootself:
before after and all around numbers are up and better but not here,
I also will get with SR,Cadre to sched. 2013 at Myakka,They have provided several weekends in each month I will dig out the paper work and post in the next day or so! ..:.. :DH:
So is this officially cancelled or are you still waiting til the 29th? I've read a lot of good things about this location. It would be a shame to miss out on the opportunity.
I agree with Smoak and that venue would be the perfect place to host a known distance Appleseed. The people that usually attend other types of events at Rocky Creek Ranch are the ones going to carbine classes with "big name" instructors (which I personally feel is silly), but people can spend their money the way they want to. I think sometimes we suffer from marketing to such a broad base. If we could have a shoot at Rocky Creek Ranch that was sort of like Appleseed 2.0 or only known distance, I think you could have more people show up - but that's just my two cents.
it is officially cancelled!
