 NEXT FLY SHOOT
Saturday, May 17, 2008
 
 So, What IS a Fly Shoot?
 
It is a low-key, fun, and challenging event for all shooters. It is well suited for women and young people who don't like the recoil of heavier caliber rifles, and it's perfect for training new shooters.
However, even the most experienced marksmen & women find it very challenging. Each round takes about 20 minutes, allowing more rounds per shooter and more shooters per event. There are prizes for day's high round scorers, in both Adult and Junior Classes. Juniors (12 through 16)always shoot FREE if accompanied by a parent.
