A date and cabin locations have finally been chosen.
This year’s shoot will be October 18th. Once again it will be held in Seagoville, (5 miles south of Route 175 or 3.5 miles NE of I-45 (exit 270) on S. Belt Line Road). The plan at this time is to meet at Cotton Gin in Crandle for breakfast at 9:00 a.m., BUT they are currently closed due to a fire. Hopefully they will be reopened by October. If not, Plan B will be put in place. After breakfast we will all head to the range. A delicious lunch will be provided at the range by our wonderful FRiend cpdiii.
The cabins where we are staying are Miller Creek Ranch in Canton, TX. There is a map of the place Here

A $125.00 deposit is due at the time you make your reservation, with the balance due when you check in.

No cars are allowed at the cabins, with the exception of the handicapped cabin. You can either use their concierge service to get to and from the cabins or rent a golf cart for $40.00/day. If you want to rent a golf cart it was suggested that you reserve one when making your reservation.

Looking forward to seeing everyone in October!
I can make them like a boss. I am part German, ya know.
Teach me how at the shoot. For Fridays’ breakfast.
What kind do you want? Do you want fried potato cakes as a side with traditional breakfast food or potato pancakes with stuff (bacon, sausage, whatever) in them as an entree?
Bring’n a hondo rd. box of .22 Long (not LR) I purchased by mistake fer ya ta use in yer lil’ single shot rifle.
Will also bring a box of .357 Mag and 2 boxes of 22-250 if anyone can use it.
As a side darlin’, already have a plan for the meats and such.
Glad to know I should bring it, it's kind of been replaced by Jim's rifle but it still has full function and a good scope.
It'll sure burn up some "any manner of" .22 ammo.
Perfect.
Easy. Make some mashed potatoes. Season. Cool. Mix in whole egg. Cool again in refrigerator for several hours. Remove, shape in patties,dust with flour, fry in skillet with shallow oil. You can also coat them with shredded frozen potatoes instead of flour.
Allen went out today to find some 22 and everyone was out. Not sure which kind of 22 but think it was for his rifle. I was going to check Cabelas for him tomorrow.
Perhaps you and BT can collaborate on cooking this delicious food that I’ve not had in over a decade!
I have plenty of .22 ta share...
Allen might want ta bring his bird shotgun for some clay target shoot’n.
Cool! He will love that. I didn’t realize we would have an option of shooting clays! I am excited!
I will be neck deep in potatoes Friday morning to get the potato salad done for Saturday but will help where I can for sure!
Dittos! Yummy...yum...lol.
Hell to the yes! Ofter Hallowween pumpkins get given away!
Yeah. What she said. ;)
Show me!
We could also go super easy and I could go buy some from LaMadeline’s tomorrow and freeze them. Just tell me how many. I am bringing super big cooler.
