Marion County Fish and Game's Bowling Pin match will be this Saturday, March 26th at 1 PM. Setup will begin at Noon and we would appreciate the help of a few volunteers. The Safety Meeting (required for new shooters) will be at 12:45 PM to explain the rules. At 1:00 PM, we will begin shooting.
If the weather is too cold we may shoot Texas Stars instead of bowling pins. So if in doubt, come prepared to shoot both. REMINDER: Bring work gloves for resetting targets. The steel plates are cold and often get muddy.
If there is severe weather, the match may need to be canceled. I will try to send an e-mail and post an announcement in the Shooting Sports section of www.ingunowners.com by 11:00 AM if it is obvious the weather isn’t going to cooperate.
The cost is $3 per bracket for club members and $4 per bracket for non-members. All money goes toward the club and/or making the competition better. Youth (under the age of 18) shoot free with a paid adult.
Bowling Pins/Texas Star Shooting is conducted under a COLD RANGE. That means all guns must be holstered (or bagged) at all times, unloaded, hammer down, with no magazine inserted. You may only handle your gun at the direction of a range officer (RO), or at the designated "safe table". Violation of this or any other safety rule shall result in a match disqualification.
If you have any questions about the match, please read the rules posted at: MCFG - Indy Range Official Website - Shotgun, Pistol, Shooting Range (look under "Programs and Events" > "Bowling Pins") If you are unable to find an answer posted in the rules, please feel free to e-mail me.
If you are willing to help as an RO or help keep score, that would be greatly appreciated.
Hope you can make it Saturday.
