This range really turns out some great teachable students & treats us all like family every time. This last shoot was no exception. Awesome steak dinner on their Big grill cooked by Chef Todd.
They have a Facebook page...check this out

Todd had an awesome idea re a special banner denoting our southernmost host range...
There are now 3 IITS in this area due to some traveling by dedicated instructors over a few years.
Thanks to all who have helped! Before we left, the club president was asking when Appleseed would be there again. There were quite a few over 200 scores knocking on the door in addition to the new riflemen & requal. Additionally, there is a request for Ladyseed.
Need to keep spreading Liberty south!

Ladyseed - yes!!  Let's get one on the books this year RG!  Wish I could have been there!
Bad men cannot make good citizens. It is when a people forget God that tyrants forge their chains." - Patrick Henry

The American Constitution is remarkable for its simplicity; but can only suffice a people habitually correct in their actions, and would be utterly inadequate to the wants of a different nation.  Change the domestic habits of the Americans, their religious devotion, and their high respect for morality, and it will not be necessary to change a single letter in the Constitution in order to vary the whole form of their government. - Francis Grund 1837

"In the prevailing political theory of the founding era, the family was considered one of the essential pillars of republican virtue, and it not only needed to be nurtured, but also protected from the tyranny of the government.... American revolutionaries and their descendants understood marriage and the family to be schools of republican virtue. -Mary Lyndon Shanley, Review Essay, 27 Law & Soc. Inq. 923,

The range is going to get back to us on dates. This range has regular events every weekend of the year. In order to accomodate us, they have to cancel a club event.
A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.

I posted all the pics in the AAR.
Don't miss the final picture , Priceless.
Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
Calvin Coolidge

Americans never quit.

It was great to get a shoot at my home range again and it was great to see you guys.  Shooting is way more fun than working, but it's a sacrifice.  Todd, thanks for the help getting the steak dinner done.  I'd like to get that going as something of a tradition for future shoots. 

Like Smoak said, we have to cancel a match to accommodate a shoot. 

You can look at HRPC's calendar here.  http://hrpclub.info/10.html

We had the last shoot on the 1st weekend, so that means the Sunday metallic sihlouette match had to be cancelled to make room.  We've also cancelled the combat match for a shoot.  The 3rd and 4th weekends are the "fun rifle" and "fun pistol" matches.  They're the most popular matches, so it's tough to cancel them.   If there's a 5th Sunday, that one is really special.  That's the "Old Shooters" match where you get to shoot a match (most shoot pistols, but rifles are allowed and will be separated into their own class) then have a steak and beer afterwards.  Our matches at HRPC are open to the public, but I also make a point of inviting all of Appleseed to come shoot a match. 

If you can come up with some potential dates for Ladyseed, let me know and I can feel it out around the club before bringing it before the rest of the executive board.  Same goes for the next Appleseed as well.
