Friday Night Protection Shoots!!!! Lorain OH PICTURES More dates!

Sportsmen’s Gun and Reel club in Lorain Ohio will be hosting protection shoots every other Friday starting September 16th. See information and schedule below along with payouts. Come out and have some fun!!!

 

Had a great time at the first shoot.

10-12 teams in the line, good targets, good payouts and fantastic food

thanks for putting it on

 

Well done....

 

The background at Lorain is crazy cool. Very dark even on bright days. The trees are tall and the targets are below the canopy. When I was there it was like standing in the light and shooting towards a black hole.

 

Hope to see a good turnout tonight,

Chicken Paprikas will be available for dinner

 

Had another good shoot last Friday.

12 teams on the line pretty much all night.

we will open a 2nd trap in the future if there are more teams than one trap can handle

 

Next scheduled shoot is tomorrow 10/28

 

Couple pictures from tonight’s Oakley.

 

Nice pictures.

 

Brad…that is a great place to shoot. In the summer your are sometimes shooting into the dark shade below the canopy of those huge trees. Great pictures. I wish more clubs would post pictures of their events.

Registered shooting is a small part of the sport.

 

Nice how far back are they

 

in this picture, roughly 40yds

 

We will be shooting on black friday 630pm.

We will be doing a 5/10 shoot. buy in per person will alternate every other shoot between $5/$10. We usually shoot 8 protectors and then an Oakley and a porch shoot.

 

Shoot for Friday the 23rd is canceled, bad weather coming, next shoot will hopefully be Jan 6th.

 

I used to shoot at two facilities that had mountains rising far above target flight as backgrounds.
They were universally felt to be hard to shoot well against.
I think the above background might be just as bad, if not worse.

 

In the past the targets here were very easy to see and the club threw a very good target... It was the place to go to shoot good scores.

Now as you can see most of the trees have died and target visibility isnt as good. In the daylight in the winter months they are pretty tough to see

 

We have 6 more shoots Scheduled:
January 20th
February 3rd
February 17th
March 3rd
March 17th
March 31st


We will Start at 630pm

 

Fantastic pictures. Thank you

 

Club has good lighting and targets. Very well run and a fun format for shooting protections.

 

next shoot is tonight 1/20/23

Hope to see you there

 

Next shoot is this Friday Feb 3rd

Had 11 and 12 teams on line the all night at the last shoot, Weather looks a little chilly this week but hope to see everyone again on Friday

 

I wish our local trap clubs shot during the winter....

 

Next shoot is this Friday 2/17/23

we had 7 teams come out last time with 0 degree weather forecasted

weather loooks much better this week.

hope to see you there

 

Next shoot is this Friday 3/3

We've had terrible luck with the weather and this week looks like more of the same with a forecast of rain and wind.

Club will be open at 515 and first shoot will go out at 630, If the forecast holds true and its raining we will shoot under the porch

 

Next shoot is tomorrow night.

looks like the rain will be done well before it’s time to start shooting.

club opens at 5:15

first shoot goes out at 6:30

 

Last scheduled Friday shoot is this week 3/31

This is scheduled to be a $5/$10 shoot every other shoot will be a $10 entry per person with payouts reflecting that.

after this we plan on shooting protections every Thursday as we did in the past at this club, this won’t start for a few weeks. There will be a separate post for this with more details soon.
