Usually, if I can. Unless something unforeseen develops I plan to be there. This is a 100 yard range so there's about 1 minute difference (for me, anyway... ^#(^ ) at the rams and turkeys and 1/2 minute at pigs and chickens in my settings.
Doug and Sarah Greer run the match and are top notch people.

FWIW, I've shot at Hiawassee too. It was a good experience as well.

Thanks Gator, I talked to Carol about coming down.

If you need any help with the State match I will be glad to come down early and help.

Jason, there is a match at Pinson, AL the second weekend in August. I shoot there, as well as several other people from the Chattanooga group. Practice at 8:30, match starts at 9:00 or thereabouts. Nick Tyree runs it.

We have a fun shoot at the Sheffield AL range the first weekend of every month if you just want to shoot. Starts at 8:30 AM. It is not an approved match however.
