Bill Murphy is more optimistic than me that the shooting waits can be lessened. Its such an old problem, its been discussed so many times. To me, the Southern remains a great venue to greet old friends, meet new ones, get a little shooting done and look at guns, books, stuff. If a person really wants to burn powder, stay at your local club or if you live close by, join me at the same time in Nebraska at the Flatwater where you can shoot until your shoulder is sore for an inexpensive flat fee. Yes, you might not be in the station cage, but a person can be part of the line of shooters who will shoot a lost bird, or the bird at the next station. Bring your overalls, Hawaiian shirts, whatever but not tweeds or ties and you'll fit right in. Turn off the road at the fertilizer dealer, go past the cattle lot, down the muddy road, and you'll be there when you start seeing the Purdeys, Hollands, high grade Parkers, and bolt action Marlins.
