    Marion County Fish and Game's Bowling Pin Match will be this Saturday, May 26th at 9AM. Setup will begin at 8:15 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.

    Don and Bruce will be running the match this month as I have to work. If you could
    assist them by acting as safety officers or keeping score, I would be grateful. (There are extra, brand new whistles in the scoring tote if you need one.)

    REMINDER! The MCF&G board has decided that we can no longer leave the gate open during the match. If you are a non-member, you will need to arrive between 8:00 AM and 8:50AM. At approximately 8:50 AM we will close the gate. This is necessary because non-members have been coming onto the property during public matches and shooting without being accompanied by a MCF&G member. Non-members are still welcome and encouraged to shoot this match. However, the public is NOT allowed to use other parts of the range for free and/or unaccompanied by a MCF&G member.

    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: MCFG - Indy Range Official Website - Shotgun, Pistol, Shooting Range (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.


    Hope you can make it Saturday.

    If you listen carefully, you can hear the evil bowling pins plotting against us,
    even though they remain locked up in the shed.
    Arrogant bowling pins, this is what happens to you when you are defiant.

    Don't think for a second, if given the chance, these bowling pins wouldn't reek havoc on everything around them! Stay aware, stay vigilant, never stop training, and I'll see all those who refuse to keep their heads in the sand by preparing for the bowling pin uprising in the morning! Holy **** where's the tylenol.

    Only a few diligent souls showed up to defeat the evil bowling pin uprising today.
    Still, the pins were vanquished, their rebellion squashed before they could do any damage.
    Thanks to everyone for being safe.
