Sounds like a combination of " My Dinner with Andre " and "Waiting for Godot".

Ernie told several of us that the plan at that time(June) was that there would be a pigeon ring in “the field” thus no parking or camping there. They plan to use the first fields as you enter for parking and will shuttle.

Those first fields are a long way out from the venue. Maybe 1/2 mile. This will be interesting.

I will be there for a bit to shoot a few events and qualify for the Fox-Parker Challenge.

A post on another forum indicates a turnout of less that 200 shooters at the Vintagers Maryland venue for the past few years. Assuming some of those shooters also attended the SxS Classic at HHHSC in June, would anyone care to speculate the number of shooters we might have at Ernie's for this years Vintagers shoot?

I think Matt said he is hoping for over 200 shooters this year, not sure what that means, 201 or 250 !

How does this compare with shoot in June at HHH for attendance, anyone know? I think a shoot 10 days or so before the first of October will suffer as many people will taking time off and or traveling for the start of upland bird season.

Well here in MI the grouse season starts on Sept 15 and the woodcock season about a week after that so that's the reason Rich and I will not be there.
