(Hebrew quote) John and Tara Venard of the Big Bear Revolver Club hold a fun match the third Sunday of each month out there. They usually have five to six stages and you'll probably need at least 150 rounds. They start at 8:00 a.m. They kinda jumped in and took over after I had my match. I have since joined the Lions Club there and have become an NRA Instructor and Range Safety Officer. We've expended the rifle range to include eight more shooting positions and we now have lights on the trap and pistol ranges and are open on Tuesday evenings from 5-8. That has become a busy place. Saturday hours are 8-4 and you can shoot all day for $6. I think they charge $10 for the matches and that goes to the Lions Club. If you decide to come over, let me know and I'll make an effort to get my ass out of bed and come out. Jim |

But I keep forgetting that no one here knows how to use a phone..only RFQs and email. Gunner I am the Sword of my Family and the Shield of my Nation. If sent, I will crush everything you have built, burn everything you love, and kill every one of you. (Hebrew quote) Two of my friends from the Lucerne Valley (CA) Lions Club range went and said that it was great. If I had the time, and I may yet, I'd do it. I'd take my MH and save the room expense. The range and course are actually in Pahrump, NV, some 30 miles from Las Vegas. Jim Oh..before I forget..when is the next match out there at the Lions Club? I totally enjoyed the one you invited me to. You guys present a very fun competition event. Now that Im mostly recovered from the heart surgery and the weather will be cooling off in a month or 2, Ill be getting my ammo stocks replenished..casting bullets is not much fun when its 112F....and Id like to shoot comp a bit more again. Other than the match you invited me to...its been years since I shot it out with good shooters. And I enjoyed it emensly. Ill even try to talk Brue Bergman into coming along again, and Ill supply him with a weapon that is competative. Gunner I am the Sword of my Family and the Shield of my Nation. If sent, I will crush everything you have built, burn everything you love, and kill every one of you. (Hebrew quote) John and Tara Venard of the Big Bear Revolver Club hold a fun match the third Sunday of each month out there. They usually have five to six stages and you'll probably need at least 150 rounds. They start at 8:00 a.m. They kinda jumped in and took over after I had my match. I have since joined the Lions Club there and have become an NRA Instructor and Range Safety Officer. We've expended the rifle range to include eight more shooting positions and we now have lights on the trap and pistol ranges and are open on Tuesday evenings from 5-8. That has become a busy place. Saturday hours are 8-4 and you can shoot all day for $6. I think they charge $10 for the matches and that goes to the Lions Club. If you decide to come over, let me know and I'll make an effort to get my ass out of bed and come out. Jim Ill certainly do that. I figure by November I should have most of the projects finished up (sooner if cash shows up) and Ill have some time to go play. I also dug the bushes away from the sailboats, so maybe Ill get some sailing in this winter too. Gunner I am the Sword of my Family and the Shield of my Nation.
