Being a new shooter, wanting to get involved, LOACATION-LOCATION-LOCATION. Central IN does have some places to shoot, but all are 30+ min away for many of us... ACC on the north side, MCFG, and Atterbury/IN Gun club really don't count. So, Location, timing, and advertising. Many of us out here are interested, but maybe hesistant driving somewhere, not knowing someone, and not knowing what to do when we get there. Just my $0.02 this morning. But I WILL get to a shoot this year! Somewhere...
Often there is carpooling. If we head to South Central in Freetown, we meet at Bob Evans at 65 and Southport. Bob Evans at Plainfield is generally the meeting place for Riley Conservation Club. Warsaw, the general meeting place is Bob Evans in Kokomo.
I'm seeing a general theme that might be a reason we all have expanding waist lines.
