    The match is a week early to avoid Christmas scheduling conflicts!

    Marion County Fish and Game's Bowling Pin/Texas Star Match will be this Saturday, December 15th at 1 PM. Setup will begin at 12:15 PM and we would appreciate the help of a few volunteers. The Safety Meeting (required for new shooters) will be at 12:45 PM to explain the rules. At 1:00 PM, we will begin shooting.

    Don't forget to bring gloves for resetting targets. The steel plates are cold and often get muddy.


    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 noon and 12:50 PM. At approximately12:50 PM 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 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 11:00 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.


    Texas Star 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.


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


    Hope you can make it Saturday.

    Based on current conditions and the radar/forecast, the match is canceled. (Of course by doing this so early, I’ve probably just greatly increased the likelihood that it will be sunny and 50° at 2PM.)

    Hope everybody has a Merry Christmas! Look forward to seeing you in the new year.
