Default Parker Gathering in Georgia

Announcing the first, and hopefully annual, PGCA fun shoot and gathering to be held at the Meadows Gun Club in Forsyth, Georgia, on Saturday, June 23, 2018. This isn’t an official PGCA event but a part of the Associations attempt to encourage informal get togethers around the country. This event will be open to everyone, members and nonmembers alike. So please, invite someone. We will be shooting a 100 target Sporting Clays course and will try to begin around 10:00 AM. You may want to arrive on the grounds between 9:30 and 9:45 AM. Lunch will be provided. Cost will be $48.00 for 100 targets and $7.00 per person for a cart. If you are a PGCA member, it is strongly encouraged (but not required) that you shoot your favorite Parker. This shoot is not a competition and the only prize is for bragging rights. You are also encouraged to bring any and all other Parkers you would like to show off, and any other guns or items you might want to try and trade or sale.

The Meadows’ physical address is 1064 Rumble Road, Forsyth, Georgia, 31029. It is located approximately ˝ mile west of I-75 off exit 181. The shooting grounds are about 4 miles south of Forsyth. If you plan on spending the night, there is a Comfort Inn at exit 185 in Forsyth. You can ask them about the Meadows Gun Club discount.

If possible, please let me know by Wednesday, June 20, if you will be attending this event and how many folks you are bringing with you. I need to have a head count for lunch. I also need a volunteer to take pictures for the Parker Pages. Thanks and looking forward to a great gathering.

Yes. Translators will be provided for all those living north of the Mason/Dixon line.

I wish it wasn't so far away. What a great deal especially $7 for a cart. (Or is that one of those little two wheeled affairs that are pulled by pigs that John Davis always raves about? Either way it beats Hausmann's prices.)
What a great idea for a PGCA Georgia Chapter event.

I’ll be there with one youth shooter and hopefully another guest or two. Happy to help out with pictures...

Do you have to register early for the shoot or the cart and do they allow lead shot.
