The sight move was due to Warrington's mismanagement of the shoot. Sad because it was a good venue.

The Oct. date is horrible if you hunt birds or deer. If you want the shoot to succeed keep the same date from year to year.

I guess I'm a poet and don't know it.

Whenever it is held, Warrington would not be the preferred SITE. What a terrible experience.

I’d have been more pleased if the guy that runs the boxbird ring at Warrington had been there and pigeons available for practice .

Trying to find the place without a GPS unit in the car reminded me of how the Germans reversed all the road signs inland from the beach before and during the invasion of Normandy.

I shot the LC Smith Turkey Shoot at Warrington in 2021 . A fair amount of folks came there and the shoot all be it smaller was run a lot better . Now with that being said there was a different guy running the club in 2021 .

The first time I went to Hausmann's, too many years ago, I was following my GPS and ended up in the dooryard of a farm. I waved at the woman standing there, and backed out. Five minutes later, I was back in her yard. She walked over to me and said so calmly "If I knew you were coming back so soon I would have put the coffee pot on." I would imagine it wasn't the first time because she told me, without asking, how to get to Flynn Rd.
