I got my card a couple weeks ago. I've been there shooting the last two weekends and I'm going again this weekend. It's a 45 minute drive for me, but it's worth it. I just take lots of guns and lots of ammo so that I can spend enough time to make it worth the drive!

The indoor pistol and small bore rifle ranges are great for when the weather is cold. I wish the indoor pistol range had a target return so that when there are multiple shooters they didn't have to all shoot at the same distance to the target, but I guess those systems are probably pretty expensive.

But the #1 reason I love this club is the action handgun range. I threw over 300 rounds into the steel plates and bowling pins last weekend through my 1911. Steel plates are SO fun!

I'll be there sometime on Saturday with guns and the bows with the wife. I wonder how expensive it'd be to put a pulley system in and have targets run out by hand on a rope/line/something??? Something like that should be able to be installed on all lanes for less than $200...

No it's ok, I just didn't know what you meant. It's funny, she (the wife) wants to compete at everything. It's fun. My buddy was in for 8 years and did multiple tours in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Kosovo for his major stuff. He was stationed in Germany when he wasn't on a tour, so I haven't seen him much over the last 8 years since we graduated high school. I got to go to Germany a couple times with school and saw him each time and he gets back on leave for a couple days at a time. He married a German girl, so I don't know if he'll be coming back to the states permanently any time soon.
