Default New Years Day Major Waldron's Barrington NH

Weather permitting I will be opening up the trap and skeet fields for PGCA members on New Years Day Monday 1/1/24. I will have the grounds open by 7:30AM and shooting can start at 9 AM. Please reply if you plan to attend and let us know if you will bringing some food to share (I look forward to the potential of some venison Billy Chili). Non-Member cost per round of skeet or trap is $6.

For those who haven't been to MWSA before the address for your GPS is:

339 Franklin Pierce Hwy
Barrington, NH 03825
United States of America

After a few years hiatus - dang, I'll try to be there... I've got this little DHE 20 I've been itching to try... As for food? Hmmm - let's see if I can't bring along a home made sourdough bread - maple, walnut with cranberry... And - now that I've posted this - I'll show Jen, who will know I've made plans....

As a former NH guy I only wished I knew about this tradition when I lived there! I will be there in spirit!! Think it got postponed last year due to weather as I recall? I hope you have a lot of fun ringing in the new year!

Chris....

As I'm in NH - I'd be willing to shoot your Parkers for ya' if you send them up? Just a neighborly gesture, of course??!!!

Let me know - and in the meantime - I'll wait alongside the mailbox so I don't miss your shipment??

2022 was cancelled due to poor weather. 2023 was good; no snow and not too cold! Hoping for the same for this time around.

This is Great news!!

Dorothy and I will be there and I'll make some venison stew with the deer I took on opening morning.

Dorothy will be unhappy though because I promised to have her grandfather's LC Smith in working order but I don't know who in New England works on them...

I am going to try to be there. Too many things to interfere between now and then to be certain.
