    Marion County Fish and Game's Bowling Pin Match will be Saturday, October 25th at 9:00 AM. Setup will begin at 8:00 AM and we would appreciate the help of a few volunteers. The Safety Meeting (required for new shooters) will be at 8:45 AM to explain the rules. At 9:00 AM, we will begin shooting.

    I have to work this Saturday, so Don B will be running the match. (Thanks Don!) Anyone who can help keep score or act as a Safety Officers, I would be grateful. Also, a reminder that next month we will switch to the Winter schedule which has an afternoon start.

    If there is severe weather, the match may need to be canceled. I will try to send an e-mail and post an announcement in the Shooting Sports section of www.ingunowners.com by 7:30 AM if it is obvious the weather isn’t going to cooperate.

    The cost is $3 per bracket for club members and $4 per bracket for non-members. All money goes toward the club and/or making the competition better. Youth (under the age of 18) shoot free with a paid adult.

    Bowling Pin Shooting is conducted under a COLD RANGE. That means all guns must be holstered (or bagged) at all times, unloaded, hammer down, with no magazine inserted. You may only handle your gun at the direction of a range officer (RO), or at the designated "safe table". Violation of this or any other safety rule shall result in a match disqualification.

    If you have any questions about the match, please read the rules posted at: www.IndyRange.org (look under "Programs and Events" > "Bowling Pins") If you are unable to find an answer posted in the rules, please feel free to e-mail me. We have been experimenting with the rules concerning which guns fit into what Divisions and this info has not been updated on the website. But the basic format of the match and the safety rules have not changed.

    If you are interested in shooting Pin Heads, bring your .22 LR's (pistol or rifle).

    If you are willing to help as an RO or help keep score, that would be greatly appreciated.

    Hope you can make it Saturday.
