Everyone Welcome!

Quite a number of people have been asking if we are holding a turkey shoot again this year. Seems the format last year was a big hit or perhaps it was just the warm, sunny weather and lots of entertaining targets.
Based on the level of apparent interest, we will do it again this year, Sunday, Oct 12, weather and other factors permitting. Probably 7 stations again, 100 targets, likely one or more bonus stations, 2 shots allowed at some targets, meaning you should bring at least 5 boxes of ammo. Cost will be $80, the same as last year, with juniors at half price.
This will take about 3 hours followed by tabulating scores, snacks, prize awards and a bit of socializing all adding up to perhaps 4 hours. Since we have shooters coming from Calgary just for the day, we need to be done by 4pm so they can get home at a reasonable time;- meaning that shooting should start at 12:00 and you should be at the range about 11:30.
As an added bonus, we are expecting an International and National Sporting Clays Icon (albeit self-proclaimed) to attend complete with all his medals. You may be able to pose for a selfie with this legend to show your friends you move in the right circles.
We will be limited to 35 shooters and based on the early interest, we will likely be sold out. So…………if a turkey shoot is on your radar, best you reserve a spot by email to victhomas@telus.net

At the Radium Hot Springs roundabout, proceed west. Just before the sawmill, turn left onto Horsethief Forest Service Road. Cross the railway tracks and the river. After crossing the second bridge, remain on the main road: do not take the left turn onto a private drive at the 1.9 km point. Proceed up the hill on the main road. At the 2.8 km point, take the left fork. The Range is located at 5.5 km on the left-hand side. There is a large sign and cattleguard at the entrance plus the civic address sign.
