Thinking about the Fall Southern SxS

[John Truitt]

is Rick not allowing shooting on Thursday?

For the past three years he has allowed us to start competition shooting on Thursday.

Any one know about this year?

Problem is too much fun ! have to budget my event time. Allowing Thursday gets some of them out of the way.

Mr Dwyer is correct.

I spoke to Rick Hemingway moments ago and confirmed that competition shooting will start at noon on Thursday.

Hope all can make it.

That's good info. Thanks John and David. I guess I'll have to take an extra day off from work. Darn!!

Look foward to seeing folks there! ----Matt

Gentlemen:
With reference to those contemplating a junket to the Southern Side-by-side at Backwoods Quail Club near the end of October:

I have recently returned from one of my frequent trips to this part of SC, and I feel compelled to re-emphasize some outstanding reasons to consider The Fall Southern as a “must attend” event for double gun enthusiasts:

1) The club has outstanding facilities, including all clay target games and two Sporting courses.

2) The grounds are especially spacious with ample room for vendors and attendee parking. No roadside parking is necessary.

3) The club is an easy drive from Georgetown, maybe 15 minutes.

4) For the more cosmopolitan sportsman and companions, the club is a mere 30 minute drive from Pawley’s Island, Litchfield by The Sea, or Murrell’s Inlet on the beautiful SC coast. These communities are delightfully upscale and offer a host of amenities including over 100 golf courses, wonderful beaches, and a bewildering choice of restaurants with some of the finest seafood you will find in America. The restaurant-lined Marsh Walk in Murrells Inlet (home of Mickey Spillane) is especially fun.

5) Within the above coastal communities, you will also find the sculpture and art of Brookgreen Gardens, the beaches and wildlife of Huntington State Park, and more. This can be a delightful diversion for the wife, family and you! Check them out:

Finally, the end of October is definitely “off season” so very good rates are available at some outstanding hotels. For fans of the ocean, I recommend the Litchfield Inn:

So… what’s not to like? Double guns, great golf, great seafood, great accommodations – and an ocean.

Absolutely John! And thanks for posting. This is a great event and it looks to be kicked up a notch this year. I hope to see a bunch of you all there! It will be fun!

I think you said it all John Campbell. Thank you! ---Matt
