Default New Years Day Shoot - Major Waldron's - Barrington NH

We are all set to have our annual New Year's Day shoot on 1/1/2017. The club is making arrangements so that we will have the facility to ourselves that Sunday and moving their regularly scheduled skeet shooting to the following day which is the observed holiday.

The Shotgun house is open and warmed up by 8AM, we will shoot until everyone has had enough. I will set up one field for trap and one field for skeet. It is not a competition it is a gathering of friends and guns, if you want to keep score I will give you a score sheet. Rounds of both Trap and Skeet will be at the non-member price of $5 per round.

I am hoping that we will be treated to great food as we have in the past, if you are inclined please bring a dish or dessert.

After lunch we can shoot a couple of trap shooting games as we have in the past, a 10 gauge backing up a 12ga protection and an elimination aka Annie Oakley.

Directions to the club are here: http://majorwaldron.com/directions/

Let's hope for good weather, in the past we have seen everything from 0 degree wind chill and occasional white out to a balmy near 70 degree day.

Shoot me questions as you have them.

When I visited the club on Thursday there was quite a bit of blue ice in the parking lot and on the skeet/trap fields. Last night we had a mix of rain, sleet and snow so there could be more ice by Sunday. If you have a pair of ice creepers it would probably be a good idea to bring them to the shoot, better safe than sorry.

Please enter the parking lot with care so as not to skid into either of the two Porsches or any other fine imported sports cars.

Hey Robin, speaking of Porsches, you're coming, right?... you're only twenty minutes away. It'll give you a chance to show folks that fabulous B Lifter 16-gauge.

Yep, I'm going but the Porsche stays home. I'll drag the B lifter over that I have listed for sale here; who knows, maybe someone will bring a checkbook?

I sure hope so.... I'm really losing my will-power the more I hold it.


I'll bring my 'new' 16-gauge D Lifter to trade for it
(I think they were both engraved by the same person)

I hope its OK to do this; I have a small stack of DGJ and Shooting Sportsman magazines that I'll bring that anyone can have for the taking.

The weather forecast I'm looking at shows a possible 1-3 inches of snow after midnight tonight. What are you folks who live in and around Barrington showing? Maybe your local forecast is a bit more refined

In addition to a 20 ga Trojan that I am bringing up for sale at this event, I am also brining along a 20 ga MEC Grabber reloader for sale ($100 for this reloader) Reloader is fully functional, just surplus to my needs. It's a steal at this price.
