Default Drakes Landing

We have just over a month before the Southern and it's once again time to get sharpened up at Drakes Landing. The group of shooters continues to increase each year because the courses are that good and the staff is not only accommodating but genuinely glad to see us. Dan does a great job of setting targets and the food available is first rate. Shooting usually starts Thursday and continues through Saturday. There is PLENTY of time to get in a couple of rounds at Drakes before heading over to Deep River.

Frank you'll have to bring your own silverware and linnen
The Growler has a new friend, I think I'll call her Smoke but she still needs a trial run. Hopefully that's this Sunday.

Be positive it just means there is a 30% chance of getting out finally and doing some shooting.
