What better way to spend Father's Day than attending a 2-day Appleseed Marksmanship clinic. Bring your dad, bring your kids, it would be a great experience for the whole family.

The father of the Shoot Boss is even planning on attending.

Directions: HWY 99 towards Merced to Hwy 140 towards Mariposa to Hwy 49 south. Turn right at Old Hwy/Yosemite All-Year Hwy and follow for about 3 miles. Turn right at 4443 Old Hwy and go through range gate. If you see Totokon Road you have gone to far as Totokon Road is west of the range. GPS:  37*27'02.8"N   119*58'43.76"W


Misc:  It is 25 meter shooting, so bring your Centerfire rifles or 22's out and gain valuable marksmanship skills.We do not require the use of specialized gear, it really is a "run what you brung" shoot.

We suggest the use of between .22 - 8mm rifles. Iron sights, Tech-Sights, scopes, semi auto, bolt action, lever action, pump action, if you have it, & want to learn how to shoot it better, bring it!!

Plan on shooting about 250 rounds of ammo, per rifle, per day. The range is our classroom, & we very much believe in teaching, & shooting.

We gather at lunch on site to explain the importance of April 19, 1775, and the beginnings of our Nation, & our Heritage. Plan to bring a bag lunch (and probably a chair) both days. Either way, I guarantee you will not want to miss this portion of the event. Come learn about the choices made by the men and women of Colonial America, and their final response to an oppressive Government. See if you can see any comparisons that might be drawn between then & now. Consider what your own choices are.
Answer the question, What would you have done?

We recommend you bring: Rifle; Ammunition; Sling; shooting jacket; elbow pads; shooting mat (or carpet remnant); water/drink bottles; most importantly a teachable attitude. For more information on what to bring go to www.appleseedinfo.org click on the link below the picture of the Eagle.

We have 40 spaces available, so make sure you register online as soon as possibles so you do not miss out on this opportunity!!


We hope to see you there!!

Excellent class in Mariposa. Thanks RomeosHero and Double D, you did a great job. Even though we were only able to attend the Saturday session, I absorbed alot of info as did my son Wesley. We are planning our first practice session this week. It is wonderful to see an organization of people so passionate about protecting and educating others about the origins of our freedom. We homeschool Wesley and this was a good American history field trip for him ( and me). His home school curriculum ( Abeka) puts alot of emphasis on history and this Appleseed class was a great supplement.
Thanks again, well done.
