    Registration ends tonight. Don't wait, sign up now. Nashville is almost sold out and I would love to see it do so. Cloverdale is sold out. Evansville, Wabash and Ft. Wayne still have spots on the line.

    Go, learn, have a ball.

    Bashville? You don't wanna to go to Bashville, you wanna go to Wabash! Wabash has eight pre-reg and 6 confirmed as walk on. There is still room and it is a beautiful range.

    Come to Wabash, WE have cookies... :rockwoot:

    Nashville has sold out, happened tonight or I would have posted about it before. There are plenty of slots still open at Riley the following weekend!

    Come to Ft Wayne. We can get you on the line...

    This ^ Still open spots at Ft. Wayne, Wabash and Evansville.

    This is THE weekend to do an Appleseed if you can swing it.

    I know, you're thinking... forecast calls for sunny skies and temps in the low 60s both days. :rolleyes:

    Who can shoot in weather like that? :D


    There are plenty of slots still open at Riley the following weekend!

    But I just convinced a friend to register for this one.

    It's already half filled - don't wait too long. ;)

    Getting Ready for the Nashville Appleseed!

    1. Make a list of everything I need for me, my wife, and daughter to attend. Check

    2. Add sling studs to a very cheap Remington Viper .22 rifle. Check.

    3. Confirm the zero on three .22 rifles and set up two ARs as back-ups. Check

    4. Locate the three GI slings I thought I owned and put them on the .22s. Check

    5. Get lunch food (including Oreos...) Check

    6. Pack the range bag with everything we need and then a bunch more. Check

    7. Put everything in the car. Check

    8. Get a good night's sleep....Hopefully!

    See everyone at Nashville on Saturday morning. Looks like it's going to be a beautiful day to shoot and learn some history! :yesway:

    I admire a man who has his priorities straight. Of course Oreos go on the check list! Why wouldn't they?

    We will all be shooting on the same firing line during the Liberty Volley. I suspect if ATM listens real hard at 4pm, he will hear the sound of Freedom :patriot:

    Have a safe shoot.

    9. Make sure you don't change your mind at the last minute tomorrow and take a different vehicle! (It's happened.)

    10. Most important of all: Have fun! We target shoot for a purpose. We instruct for a much larger purpose, but there is no reason it can't be fun doing it. I have yet to attend an Appleseed that wasn't.

    Blessings,

    Not only has it happened, but it has happened to "the best" of us!

    I thought that's who I'd seen had done that, but I wasn't 100% sure, and I didn't want to point him out... but yeah, that's where I saw it.

    How awful would that be, to drive however far you had to go to get to your shoot only to find you had nothing with you, except maybe your rifle? (well, some of us would still be OK, depending on if the vehicle they chose to take instead was their BOV or Urban Assault Subaru Brat with four cylinders of ground-pounding fury, but that's another story entirely. :lmfao:)
