Registration is now open and limited to 120 entrants. The registration form and general information packet are attached below. We look forward to seeing new and old faces next year and are working on coming up with new and/or improved events. (10 gauge category in all bore? Black powder event? Trampoline? The opportunities are endless. Let us know if you have any fun ideas! Thanks and we hope to see you in June.

Hello Scott, Glad to see ''No Vendors Fees'', Wish other shooting events would take notice of that. In the North East Area there is a place that offers the same thing, ''BUT'' None of his Shooters buy anything. So it is a waste of time setting up their. I would think the shooters at WOODS & Meadow are different from the East shooters. By different I mean , ''DO THEY BUY'' or just go to shoot. If they buy, let Me KNOW.

A year or two before he passed Steve Barnett told me he was about done with lugging all those guns around to various shows and events because sales were so low it really wasn't worth all that effort. It's all because of Internet gun sales he said.

I think most dealers have that same mindset. If the event is near home they may set up but the long distance hauls are becoming a thing of the past. The Spring Southern still draws some long distance vendors and I hope that continues.

Hi Harry, as this is only our second year with this event, we are not sure if people buy things or not. We had a few vendors last year and they seemed to have a good time. If it's too far to travel, not a problem. We just thought we'd offer it as an option if a vendor had the time and desire. Thanks.

Funny, the only vendor that hasn't made multiple sales here is you. The rest of them are happy.

Scott, we hope to make the trek to your place soon. Once we're done with daily open shooting we will be free to travel.

The only multiple sales at your place are ''Clay Targets''

Harry, are you still dealing without an FFL?

BTW, dealers with quality and desirable firearms do well here. If you bring the same old same old overpriced stuff it won't sell.

Scott, sorry for diverting your thread. As Barney Fife said, "Nip it in the bud Andy!"
