    They're lucky if they have the zone, but IMHO--you have to be nuts to shoot in Fl in July---

    The real bitch is the venue they use, its not close to a level playing field if you draw a lousy bank--save your $-

    Don't really know where the lousy bank is at on the gun club side.
    Unconfirmed rumor has the state shoot the week following the Southern Zone.

    Bank 6 sux, also I was shooting behind Leo & the Federal squad a few years go Leo was on post 1 on bank 4 , golf side & I'm referring to the GOLF side which sux --well Leo missed his first 2 targets into the bamboo jungle-the Silver Dollar is not a level playing field-yeh-I've won my share of trophies there--but its not a level playing field

    I'll bet bank 6 at the Silver Dollar is far better than the trap at your new club.

    As they would in the navy--that's a no s--ter men & bank 6 is way better, @ least you can shoot an OK score there, but your score would have been much better on bank 2

    All I know about Pa, is hear say, there was a bank or two that the out of town newbies got suckered into--don't know if its true or not

    Ron, not bitching--in July they would have maybe 75 shooters, in Dec .,300 shooters--I passed out from the heat about 40 years ago--very susceptible

    Heard yesterday, while I was shooting @ RR, that the Fl State Shoot is looking to happen in the second week of Oct. 2020

    Way better than July--temp wise
