How about a chicken ring??
|
Nope no deal. If you have/had ever shot a pigeon ring you'd understand. Ernie saw one at the U.P. shoot and has tried (and failed I guess as it hasn't ever worked) to duplicate one for his shoot. Come shoot at Medford, WI over fathers day weekend and experience one. You'd be impressed.
|
Shot the real deal many times.
|
That is on my list of things to do.
|
WE WILL BE ARRANGING BLOCKS OF ROOMS WITH THE LOCAL MOTELS IN TUNKHANNOCK. UPDATED INFO AS RECEIVED WILL BE PUBLISHED ON OUR WEBSITE. THESE MOTELS ARE 15 MILES FROM THE ROCK AND NEWLY BUILT, AND CLOSE TO MANY RESTAURANTS AND SHOPPING OPPORTUNITIES.
COMFORT INN, TUNKHANNOCK, HAS 20 ROOMS BLOCKED FOR THIS SHOOT. 570-836-4100 TUNKHANNOCK IS 15-20 MINUTES FROM THE ROCK |
Yup and the Comfort Inn is very nice! The PGCA will be there with bells on!!

Last year we paid $109.00 per night. I'm not sure what the others in the area charge. |
George, for the Comfort Inn, a non-smoking room with 2 queen beds is $109/night. A non-smoking 2 queen SUITE is $119/night. Rooms are blocked from Thursday through Monday. If anyone arrives early (Wednesday), just let them know and the discount rate will be extended to you.
|
Susan should be seeing the Hampton Inn manager today (4/1) and finalizing the block of rooms there. Info TBA.
|
I booked at the Hampton and it's $119 per night also.
|
The Hampton is right next to Remington's Restaurant. Very, very good food. Jack is the chef and co-owner and is a member here at RMSC. We recommend dining there. Make sure you ask him for the Polish Surf & Turf. Carp and woodchuck!!! I also recommend the 'possum flatbread appetizer. Tell him Mike sent you. :rotf:
|
HAMPTON INN, TUNKHANNOCK, HAS 10 ROOMS BLOCKED FOR THIS SHOOT
$119 570-996-5866 |
Does the Queen come with the room?
|
No, must bring your own queen. I'm sure you can find some in Boston, they wear Red Sox hats. :rotf: :whistle:

George, can't you use Ritz crackers for targets?? |
Years ago, Orvis sold a Ritz Cracker thrower. I reverse engineered the thing, and tried out my copy. Thrower worked well, but we found that very often the cracker was hit (sometimes 2-3 pellet holes in the cracker), but they didn't break. I suppose we could have salvaged the unbroken ones and used them for hors d'oeurves, but....
|
Actually, $116 for AAA members, 75 ft. to the side door of Remington's and a spacious parking lot for tour buses. :whistle::whistle::whistle:

A shout out regarding our September event!! Vendors are signing up and we should have some very nice double guns for sale in the pavilion!! Custom builders and gunsmiths will be here as will the "Big 4" Collector Associations!! The trophies are all ordered too and every event will have some nice BLING to go to the winners. Ma Greenley is slated to once again provide food and eye candy. :D We advise you to make sure you reserve your room(s) in Tunkhannock to be sure you have the best deals in the area. We'll post more info as we move closer to the event. Hard to believe we're less than 3 months away!! :shock:
|
Here's the shoot flier for those that need to plan your mode of attack!!! Note that some event dates and amount of targets have changed. The prices of a few events will be lowered accordingly.

Here is the updated registration form with some event date changes, bird totals and lowering of the cost of 2 events. Sorry for any type not lined up, Excel is fine but when I do PDF it "moves" things!!

This great event will feature a Collectors Group Reception that will take place immediatly after the Fox/Parker Challenge and the Manufacturer Cup Shootoff. Time will be 5:00/5:30 on Saturday. The event will be catered by the wonderful Bar-B-Q outfit that will be serving us all weekend! Last years food was fabulous and the scenery wasn't bad either.....:rolleyes:
Please make note that those PGCA members that wish to attend must let Mike know of your intentions by Weds. Sept 21 2016. The cost for PGCA members will be $15 a head. You may pay for this at the same time you pay for the events you are shooting. Don't miss this fun get together.......:bigbye: |

Let the games begin!!

I would think the Team Parker hats should say "Parker-Fox Challenge"... Wha' happened?
. |
Fox team is something like 4-0 right now. First things first. :)
Maybe some of the hot shot southern shooters will show up this year? The excuses have been increasingly creative, making for plenty of hilarity while at dinner at Dover Furnace, Hausmann's and the Rock. :whistle: |
Dean- Fox Team has been kicking our butts so long that we are lucky to have hats made that even mention Parker. Although I don't understand how those Fox shooters are able to convince their probation officers to let them shoot guns. They must have good lawyers.
Frank- I too have concerns about the invisible force field that exists on the Mason-Dixon line. |
I wonder if Mal can break away from his responsibilities in Fairfield that close to October to come to PA and shoot a Parker?

I wonder if the Fall Southern being so close has anything to do with their resistance to venturing across the "line". . |
No more resistance than when Northern shooters venture across the M-D line to the Spring Southern even though Hausmann's is much closer and just a few weeks later.

What a relief!!! And I always thought it was the mad pollock who had them made. Thank the Lord it wasn't him... :whistle:

NO! Toolman does not have the damn hats made up. The PGCA does

When Team Parker takes the cup will the wording on the hats change to put Parker first? . |
