Anyone from or near the Louisville area interested in getting together for a morning or afternoon at the range?
I have two weapons that I would trust my life with but I didn't buy them strictly (or even primarily really) for that purpose. I just love to shoot, and look forward to improving. I'd like to get a few of us together for company at the range, maybe some friendly competition, and the opportunity to enjoy the "hobby" with others. I am very happy with the guns my wife and I chose but am interested in many others and I enjoy hearing about what other people like to shoot and why.
If anyone is interested then I think the best place to get together (at least at first) would be Bluegrass Indoor Range. It's a decent range, not TOO expensive, is a relatively safe, controlled environment and is very easy to get to (it's off Bishops Ln. between Newburg and Poplar Level). The only other places (aside from pvt prop) I know of are Open Range in Crestwood (VERY nice but expensive and kind of a hike), KCGR (outdoor & cheap but a serious drive for me), and last but not least (my favorite place to shoot) the gun range in the back of Clark state forest in IN (its a 15 min drive once you cross the river. It's free and outdoors but not supervised or attended by any authority, so maybe not the best place for a bunch of strangers with guns to meet for the first time)
If you are interested give me a "yay" (no nays), or a "here here", or an "I'm down", or a "dig"... whatever. If there are enough of us into it then I will try to nail down a date and time that works for everybody.
