    Marion County Fish and Game's Bowling Pin Match will be this Saturday, September 25th at 9:00 AM. Setup will begin at 8:15 AM and we would appreciate the help of a few volunteers. The Safety Meeting will be at 8:45 AM to explain the rules. At 9:00 AM, we will begin shooting.

    I suggest you bring both a center fire and .22LR firearm so you'll be in good shape to participate in everything we do. Last month we shot mostly centerfire brackets, but that could change depending on who shows up. We now require chamber flags be used with all .22LR firearms. If you don't have a chamber flag, we will loan or sell you one at the safety meeting.

    If there is wet or 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 7:30 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 Pin 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: https://indyrange.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/pinrules2016.pdf (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.

    Hope you can make it Saturday.

    ~John

    There was an optomistic few who left for the range in the rain,
    and shot bowling pins under near perfect conditions.
    Thanks to all for being safe.
    Hope we have more shooters next month, for the season finale.
