The object of the 123 is to score 123 points! Go over and you are out! The format is 5 shots at a 100 yard range fired from the sitting position in 25 seconds, and then 5 shots at the walking target at a 50 yard range fired from the standing position. At this point in the match you will be given time to score your target (using your spotting scope) and total up your score - here is where the math comes into it and you must calculate how many points are required to wind up with a score of 123. The next target will be at 50 yards and is shot at from the leaning position. Since there is no time limit you can score (through your spotting scope) each shot as you shoot it and update your total. The last target will be at 50 yards and you will shoot however many shots you need to total your score up to 123 - careful now as the targets we use only go down to a "5" ring for scoring. If your looking for fun, you can't beat this shoot, so get your rifle ready and come out. It is a really easy (anyone can win) way to get a "TOP GUN" hat.

This is a test of your ability to reload accurate ammunition and then shoot perfect targets. We have no limits on rifle, scope, or rest, just bring your best hand loads and let's have some fun. Bench rest has three classes... Target rifle (heavy barrel), hunting rifle (light barrel) or Rim fire rifle. The format is 3 non-consecutive squads - 5 scoring shots in each (each round includes a sighting target for your fine tuning). Ranges vary and are 50, 100 or 200 yards or a combination of all three. Top Prize is a "Rifle Man" Patch.

This shoot is an informal hunters shoot intended to provide an opportunity for rifle shooters to practice and enjoy a bit of good-natured competition. The shooting is intended for hunters and target shooters. Hunters get to practice with the inexpensive .22 rifle and ammunition and the target shooters can practice with different targets than used in formal competition. Beginners and experienced shooters are all together as it is not a formal competition. This event is held on Wednesday evenings starting at 6:30PM - indoor range in the winter and outdoor range in the summer. The format is 4 targets; 10 shots each from prone, kneeling, sitting and standing positions. Generally costs $3 - $7 each shooter. If you do not have your own rifle, the club has 7 target .22 CAL rifles and ear protection for you to use at these matches, but you must supply the ammo.

A core group of avid fishers has recently revived and re-emphasized the "ROD" part of our club's name by exploring fly-casting, tying flies, and other related fishing skills and pursuits. Various discussions on all aspects of fishing with special emphasis on the art of fly fishing are held occasionally. As a group we travel to local lakes to test our skills.
